    Rly? For me it felt cheesy as fuck, and unnecessary!

    The Walking Dead touches a lot on the human aspect of zombies, sure they're walking torsos that want to feed on your bodily organs but they were once human and seem to retain some of their memories. Day Of The Dead had this with "Bub".

    Just saw episode 2, so good!

    Saw episode 2 as well, and I fear I might give this show up within the next two weeks. Don't get me wrong, there are some really cool moments in it but I've seen this type of shows one too many times to get too attached to them anymore. This show for instance reminds me too much of Jericho http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0805663/ which some of you might have seen. It started of with a nice premise but after a couple episodes they kept dragging on and on and I just didn't like it anymore (but I kept watching all through season 1 for the hopes it would get better). Since that show I learned not too get too attached to shows anymore and even movies, if they don't keep me interested long enough I quit them these days, time is too precious

    The main thing that keeps me going at this point is that Frank Darabont is the writer/creator of it, so I hope his writing will make it work where other shows failed.

    The Walking Dead only has 6 episodes and it rocks so far. Jericho pretty much sucked from the beginning because of shitty production values, bad actors and horrible script.

    But that's the big difference between shows from a premium cable network and shows from a regular network. When something has AMC or HBO written over it then you can be sure of high production values and great scripts. Just look at HBO's new show Boardwalk Empire. It's like watching a movie (and a pretty great one).

    QFT although I think HBO has proven to be the best of the two in terms of quality.

    after watching ep2 I'm a little more hyped then I was in the beginning actually.

    I can't understand how you find that "romance" between Lori and Shane boring after watching the second episode. They showed him fucking her from behind on the ground of the forest with that cutesy heart necklace by her not-so-dead husband in front of the camera at the same time. Even if you don't want to see romantic drama in such a series, at least they deliver it the right way

    I think AMC overtook HBO in the last couple years. Mad Men and Breaking Bad are just so good. HBO has a new winner show tho with Boardwalk Empire. I almost get sad when an episode is over because i crave for more.

    don't get me wrong, I love sex (with women)

    but I find it distracting from the part of the plot I like to see, wich is surviving a zombieinfested world with limited resources. and apart from that, I find the acting of sarah wayne callies sort of annoying, don't really know why... also: I had the volume cranked up and now everybody in my student housing thinks I was jerking off I love the unfolding plot and the introduction of the new characters though! im really curious about how merle dixon is going to come back in the story.

    @ Steppenwolf: it's true that AMC is getting better. even better maybe then HBO, but HBO has more good series on it's name atm then AMC, so I'm, sort of more prone to HBO series then I would with AMC... breaking bad was one hell of a ride though! can't wait for the forth season.

    Third episode was shit. I hope that was the one odd episode and the rest gets better again.

    I preferred episode 3 to episode 2. Episode 2 didn't really go anywhere, but this one was quite interesting. Didn't feel like it should have ended at the hand though really. (No spoiler.. If you come to this thread then expect things to be spoiled!)

    Didn't like third episode at all compared to the two previous ones. I really hope they don't go more indepth with this family drama thing anymore.

    I just hope either the other police-guy or the wife dies, and then back to the violent stupid zombie-grinding again.

    Hmm I haven't seen the third one yet, but if it turns into just some love triangle drama with just the occasional zombie, it's going to be quite disappointing

    Hopefully it gets to that first scene from the first episode soon, when he's on his own.

    Even if they go with the love-triangle stuff for a few more episodes, they can easily fix it! If the viewer numbers plummets, just have a horde of zombies overrun the survivor camp while the main character is out in the forest having a piss. Everybody dies, he survives, riding around on horse continues! Problem solved!

    That was just shitty generic love drama with little action + annoying redneck characters. I think nobody wants to see this. Good thing this season is short and they will take notes from viewer reactions.
