11. Taking Eight Months To Find The Prison
Having Daryl in your group gives you all sorts of advantages. He's a crack shot, kills silently with a crossbow, has enough empathy to not go flying off the Shane deep-end and rides a badass motorcycle. Admittedly that last one negates the purpose of killing silently, but we are where we are, and Daryl's proved himself too useful to be thrown out for a noisy chopper. But among his big box of tricks he can also throw up a continuity error or two, and nowhere is this more apparent than between seasons two and three. Just to jog your memory, the show-runners decided to tease the Prison in the season 2 finale by showing it to be just over the hill from where the despondent and newly-founded Ricktatorship are resting. Brilliant, you think they're going to find it, and really get their Governor-centric story on. Yet weirdly that doesn't happen instead they trek about aimlessly the whole winter, always missing it and going round in circles. I guess they had to explain why Carl had grown since we last saw him and really get the Lori pregnancy story running, but knocking on 8 months to find something up the road seemed a little much, especially when you've got a tracker in your group who could tell you when you're running around in circles. It was literally right there, and they straight-up missed it for absolutely ages.
