Walking Dead

Noticed there hasn't been much mention about this show. Although I know a few subsimmers that are watching it, or will once it makes it's way across the pond.

If you are American(only place you can view it at the moment), receive AMC, and are interested in Zombies, or really good shows you should definitely check it out.

The first season is currently on Episode 3. And I have to say I love the show. One of the few shows I watch.

Trailer:

First Episode

While Season 1 is only 6 episodes, season 2 has been given the green light and is 13 episodes long.

^ LOL

I've been keeping up with the series, although I forgot about last night's episode. I never read the comic but so far I'm liking it.

It's on in the UK as well - just seen episode 2 - pretty good - although I still find it weird to hear Andrew Lincoln speaking with a US accent!

It's based off a comic?

Ive been recording it. Seems to be a new episode debut every sunday. My DVR has 3 episodes thus far. Haven't watched any of them yet though.

Turns out The Walking Dead series is a bit of a ratings success ,it was renewed for a second season after only 2 episodes! http://blastr.com/2010/11/the-walkin...2-episodes.php
We dont have it here yet but im looking forward to it.

Dowly · 11-15-10, 05:24 PM

Anything with zombies is usually a success. People love zombie stuff.

That, and the fact that AMC usually makes good shows. They brag about how Madmen has won awards for so many years in a row and what not.

The channels over here are so wrapped in these reality crap shows that it would be a miracle if we got it here!!

Ducimus · 11-15-10, 08:56 PM

We're inundated with reality TV shows too. I'm rather sick of them myself.

Then it would be called "the walking stupid"

I think that if we could elect dead people and have them serve in Congress, there might be an advantage.

Filibusters would either be very short or very long depending on the interpretation of the rules.
