The Walking Dead

I got a good LOL at the end when the radio in the tank came through and someone said "hey ******* in the tank"

Haven't read the comics, but want to now.

Seems like a good series. Hopefully will live up to my expectations. Though, having read The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z already, I had plenty of issues with how the main characters have been responding to the undead threat. Riding a horse into an urban area? That's a terrible idea!

Note that yes, I am indeed a zombie fan. My favorite supernatural/sci-fi beings by far. I don't know if it was just me, but during the trailers, and once during the Atlanta scene, it seemed like the zombies could run (or at least stagger very quickly). Which is worrisome, because combine that with zombies that can apparently think enough to turn doorknobs, and you've got yourself a threat bordering on Velociraptor scale. (Yes, I do analyze buildings for their safety during both zombie and Velociraptor outbreaks)

I have read the comics and I dont want to get to much into it but there are different types of zombies in the Walking Dead. Some just sit there and do nothing, some run, and some just walk around.

I read somewhere that the first season only covers the first 6 comics. There are currently 78 comics out there and I am very excited to see where the director takes the series.
 
I didn't realize until this morning that the woman in "tent city" in the woods is the wife of the main character. That will be interesting when they meet up and she's now with his old partner.

This is good news, imo. Plenty of story for subsequent seasons.
 
I will say this, if my wife turned into a zombie, I would shoot her. That dude struggled too long. =)

But that is a staple of zombie tales - your friend/wife/parent is a zombie and you must struggle with what to do. :skeptical:

I'm calling BS on this. Everybody says that when they don't actually have to back it up. Unless of course, you really don't like your wife very much...

Im not saying it wouldnt be somewhat hard, but she is gone and her walking around trying to eat the kids or myself would not sit well with me.

Hey in some of those tales, the person will chain them up and let the zombie live with them.

Bos would put her down for the same reason I would; it's just not healthy for your kids to watch their mom wandering around the neighborhood undead all day and night.

It all about the kids.

I love the zombie newborn in the Dawn of the Dead remake. I laughed...out loud.

I thought it was really good. The only issue (miniscule) I had with it was at the end. My mom flew into town to visit and we were watching it and as soon as he got into the city I said to her "There's no way that horse is going to get out alive and it's going to **** me off." Lo and behold...but, I'm a sucker for animals and just hate seeing them get killed, even when I know it's fake. Call me a softie if you will.

Wait a minute...

--SPOILER ALERT, for those who haven't seen it--

The show starts with a little girl getting shot in the head, and continues with multiple people (both living and undead) getting shot and beaten to death in gruesome fashion--many of them in slow motion--and your only problem was with a horse being killed?

Probably wouldn't have bothered him if it was a zombie horse getting shot.
 
I too loved the ending with the guy coming over the radio..."hey you in tank..feeling cramped"...pretty cool ending. I'm really looking forward to this show since 24 and Sparticus is done I don't really have a single show that I watch.
