The integrated communities of the prison group and Woodbury are shown in various scenes and certain members go on away missions.
This is a solid first episode of the forth series that establishes the setting and characters well.
Everything has moved on logically from the third series finale, with characters developing in plausible ways. I like how the leadership system has evolved and Rick's change of role. His state of mind seems in focus again and some of his scenes are quite ambiguous in their portrayal of his sanity.
Other characters also have good scenes, some quite humorous and enjoyable like Daryl experiencing popularity within the community. Some of his banter with new characters is quite enjoyable.
A new threat is introduced and it is a sensible one considering all forms of infrastructure and social construction have broken down. Healthcare systems and clean water supplies are things most developed countries take for granted and it is to the credit of the writers they appear to be acknowledging these factors.
There are some impressive zombie sequences that are suspenseful, horrifying and use some clever visual concepts.
As ever the performances of all are top drawer.
