The Walking Dead has found it's redeeming season. "Four Walls and a Roof" once again kept me to the edge of my seat with it's intense scenes and later on filled with emotional ones.
The acting in this episode was top notch and added to the realistic vibe of the whole show. Father Gabriel continues to shine in his role as his past is explored and given detail in this episode. Andrew J. West was also excellent in his role as Gareth, he was a menacing and hostile, psychotic cannibal throughout the episode and was a clear stand out for me. Bob Stookey was also great in the episode depicting someone who has lost hope after the events that had destroyed him in the past episode. The story was quite simple in this episode, Rick's Group vs. The Hunters. But it gave way to intense execution of both action and dialogue between the two groups. There were a couple scenes where a falling out is occurred in Rick's group and I think it was great and showed that wherever the group may go, no matter how safe it is or how conspicuous it is. One thing is for sure is that they are not safe in any way. Rick and his group has changed over the past few seasons, they did not take any risks anymore, they were not merciful anymore, and they do not trust anymore that easily. It was shown what the group was capable after what they did to Gareth's group in which I think I will remember this season for. At the end of the episode emotions were released and the group was divided. Washington should better watch out.
Overall the episode was excellent and incredible. It sure did not have a lot of action just like other excellent episodes like "Too Far Gone" or "No Sanctuary". But it served as a solid TWD episode filled with a simple story but executed well enough to be one of the greatest episodes so far. +With top notch acting, +Scenes that will bring you to the edge of your seat, +Emotional scenes that will sure to get your attention. +Great development for Rick's group, +An episode that will leave us wanting more.
Verdict: 9.5/10
