Don't know if you guys watched or not but the Governor was on "Talking Dead" right after the WD ended and the host asked him why he threw the spaghetti Os out the window. He said that his character didn't want to accept anything from anybody. (tho he did take the offer to stay there)LOL.
Also, fwiw, he said he rehearsed the scene in the ditch where he's saving the little girl, fighting Walkers, without his patch. When it came time to put his patch on, it threw him off a bit.

He seemed to really like the role he plays.
Talking Dead is kind of lame but also I like to get everyone's take on it and many times they have cast members either in person or interviewed on tape.
