We definitely caught it. Sunday is a great day for tv now. Football, racing, Boardwalk Empire, and now Walking Dead. Last night's episode was really good too.
I'm not a leg humper... but I'm super attracted to how fucking stupid she is! - wildjester
Castle: rob, potbelly, stat. i brought the bike, wanna ride 2 up?? ClemsonJeeper: omg i'm in now! Castle: fvck, did i just put that in the sb?
yeah...I have to say when I heard they was turning the comic book into a tv series... I just knew it was going to be Angle/Buffy/Supernatural like...
This show is damn near movie quality. I hope we can get at least 4 seasons out of this.
Yeah man, they definitely could have botched it. Really glad they got it right. AMC has such great shows though, you almost knew it would be could. If it were on one of the big four or something...prob not.

I wanted sheriff dogooder to kill the fat hunter dude
So not to spoil...Yeah, but he didnt even know what was on the other side. Nor that there would have been a through and through. Plus he sincerely felt bad and is trying to step up to show that.

I don't care... I just wanted to see sheriff dogooder lose his shit

I'm pretty sure they canned the first season writers immediately after the finale and brought in a new crew...good call.
"I didn't know they gave out rings at the Holocaust"
A lot of people on another forum are like omg its zombies, you should totally know exactly what to do if it happens. On The Talking Dead aftershow they said that you have to imagine the world of the Walking Dead as never having a George Romero in it aka never having even heard of zombies. Which makes a lot of the what we think is dumb shit make more sense because they just wouldn't know wtf was happening.
Great series though, can't wait for the next one. Its like a drug
There are some that hobble along at a decent pace.
On TTD they said their pace was related to how long they have been dead (undead?). A zombie that has been dead for 2 months would be slower than one that has only been dead for a week.
