This is the third episode of the third season of the Walking Dead and even though it's a little different, it's still compelling because now we get to see the situation Andrea and her new friend come across with. We get to meet an interesting set of characters that are finally introduced to us, including the mysterious Governor. Not big on the action, but the characterization remains a high point of the season.
In this episode, "Walk with Me," Andrea and Michonne witness a helicopter crash and when they investigate, they meet a group of armed men as they're hiding in the bushes. But they are surprised by Merle and the group is taken back to the haven known as Woodbury where they meet the Governor and it seems like there is a whole community of people after all. Andrea thinks it is a nice place, but Michonne is not so sure.....
Overall, though we don't see Rick and the gang, we are still treated to a great episode that focuses on a side story and I fear it will become relevant soon enough. There is some action, but it's the characterization and the return of Merle, in the physical world, which carries the episode. Also, The Governor is an interesting character and one worth keeping an eye on. I rate this episode 9/10.
