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.

Also Rubicon. I didn't get to catch the last few episodes of it but the show interested me.

I haven't seen Rubicon, but the commercials seem interesting.

The Killing which is going to air in 2011 looks like it's going to be good.

I completely regret not jumping on that Steam sale awhile back. Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun.

I was interested until others stopped playing, or the games held when i was at work. I enjoy the tactics and teamwork aspect of it. Providing new flow through ventilation on zombies is just icing on the cake.

Great, thanks for the reminder! This is exactly for my generation who grew up with the first wave of zombie flics!

The show has also already started in Germany on Foxchannel - already dubbed. This is quite a novelty that an US series starts in countries outside North America at the same time. Do the networks finally make some smart decisions?

This is an old thread but it seems The Walking Dead has become quite a success. I never even knew about the comic books it was based on and recently got the first compendium off amazon. Pretty good deal at less then half the price at any bookstore I've seen plus free shipping. Anyway, just wondering if more of you are watching it. I haven't seen every episode but I can see this lasting for quite awhile and wouldn't be surprised to see some type of spin-off series. You know how they like to milk a good thing.
