Re: The Walking Dead
 

Why do Americans have this fixation for zombie movies and shows. Most of them are diabolically bad.

I wonder how this will fare on a scale of 1 to 28 Days. :)

Re: The Walking Dead
 

This starts in just over 1 week :)

Although, for those who may want to check it out early, a pre-air version of the pilot has been leaked...

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Yeah, I watched that the otherday. I enjoyed it. I think I'll acquire the a better copy when it's available. When does it start over here?

Re: The Walking Dead
 

"Fridays 10pm from 5th November"

Freakin love zombies

Re: The Walking Dead
 

The first episode is all over the net already. I'm holding out to watch it in lovely HD next week on FX.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

It's a pre-air version, very fuzzy - like you, I'm waiting for the HD version on FX-HD.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Apparently this phenomenon has manifested itself in the town of Morecambe, because (rumour has it) they don't bury the dead there - they stand them up in bus shelters. :D

Sigh.............................!

Si thee :Sprint:

Re: The Walking Dead
 

on virgin media it wont let me record series :(

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Looking forward to this, have Sky +'d already.

Are these fast zombies or slow zombies?

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Pretty sure they were fast.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Faster than dawn of the dead, slower than 28 days later.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

"Guts"... An excellent - and very appropriately named - second episode.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Season 2 finale now available!

Couldnt find a US timeline for S2 (didnt see it worth while making one for the last ep)

Duuuh! :D

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Season finale?

The episode broadcast in the US on Sunday night was episode 8, the first episode of the second half of season 2... there are another 5 episodes left in season 2 (total of 13).

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Ahh my bad. When the first part of S2 finished epguide was only showing ep8 so I assumed :confused: it was the end of that season.

Never mind another 5 to watch then :)

Re: The Walking Dead : Season Two
 

WOW best show on TV can't wait for the 3rd season now.

Re: The Walking Dead : Season Two
 

I thought the ending was awful.

Re: The Walking Dead : Season Two
 

I enjoyed it, lots of people died and it sets itself up for next year, wherew they will no doubt be encamped in the prison.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Yeah it is looking like a great 3rd season

Re: The Walking Dead : Season Two
 

The episode itself was pretty good I suppose, they needed something to shift them out of the farm (although I'm not sure why they didn't choose to return there a few days later) but the last 10 minutes where they've tried to turn Rick heel just didn't work for me. I still had sympathy for him as it was Shane who drove him to make the decisions he'd made. I was hoping for a much more dramatic finish. OK there's great potential in series 3 but i want to know more about what happened at the time of the outbreak. The twist about them all being infected was good and made sense but I just want to see what happened to humanity at the time it started.

Re: The Walking Dead : Season Two
 

Whats to say they wont go back in s3?

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Hershel made references to 'losing his farm'.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

I can see them or at least a small group of them going back not to stay though.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

Maybe but I doubt it,

of interest to me though, at the start of the episode when the herd started moving, a helicopter flew overhead. Which suggests there is still some kind of authority, be in military or otherwise, in operation?

Re: The Walking Dead
 

That was a flashback to when the outbreak began. I read it in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, I believe.

Re: The Walking Dead
 

They didn't make that very clear in the episode.

But you're right it is the same one Rick saw in the first series, explaining that it took weeks for that herd to get to the farm.

Although the Helicopter will return in S3.

Looks like David Morrisey has bagged the part of "the governor" on S3.
