Season 4 - The Governor's new secret headquarters?


So we've got another picture concerning season four of the Walking Dead and it looks like the Governor has found a new base of operations: a Big Spot retail store.

I think the name of the store is originally Big Lots, but they obviously can't use the name of a retail store without permission from the actual chain.  The name does the job for me and it also looks like there is a military camp outside of the store from what it looks like, but let's take a look at the pictures:

So the first picture we have is the store Big Spot, based off of Big Lots so they don't get sued.  I'm actually really excited because I said in one of my previous posts (I forget which one) that a great location would be a grocery store or department store of some kind.  It's big, there's tons of supplies and it's pretty secure aside from the glass windows.  You could definitely set that place up to be like paradise in a zombie apocalypse. 

Now, I'm assuming that the Governor is going to find his way here, but there is the chance that it could be a totally different group that is living here.  An idea I had would be for a different group to be staying here, have the Governor, Martinez and Shumpert come to live with them, and have the three of them take it over.  But that's just an idea and we don't know for sure if this is indeed the Governor's new spot.

I'm of the mindset that it is because he has to go somewhere and it would make perfect sense.  Who knows, maybe he knows about it when he set up Woodbury.  Maybe they could meet up with a military-type group because there is military stuff outside like tents and debris.  I think this new set is going to be better then Woodbury because aside from the wall and the torture room, the rest of the community was just bland.  It'll be interesting to see how they film in this department store and what kinds of new things they'll be able to do in terms of the set design.  Plus, you also have all the military tents and equipment outside, which makes the place that much cooler to stay during a zombie apocalypse.
