greAT SHOW

I wonder what happend to the black familey..

wasnt he going to ATL?

[Kurb]

Thats what he said.

Who knows if he will show up again.

Couldn't cap his zombie wife, could be the reason he hasn't taken off already.

I like that these are Jog zombies instead of run zombies, will make the show easier to believe.

Overall a well done show me thinks, the whole waking out of coma was kiinda weak, but it looks to be a solid plot. Plus the hot chick from Prison Break is in it.

I think I'm hooked

That show was great, beginning was a little weak in a been there seen that kinda way. Very Romeroish with hints of the 28's in it. Can't wait to see more.

I think the coma might be explained later. Plus, the opening scene has to be explained later. He has his cop car, then gets on a horse and heads into ATL.

He looks for gas before he gets the horse and in the opening scene he is looking for gas again.

And Frank Darabont isn't a continuity slouch so this should be a neat loop to close.

Did anyone else think that this Zombie looked just like Heath Ledger?

I think the opening scene could have been a stop between where he leaves and gets the horse. Not crazy to think he was stopping at each gas station on the way to see if anything was there. Plus he didn't have his bag o' guns in opening so he probably wasn't completely out of gas yet.

Yeah they have to explain how he was living through a coma though, but it's possible someone was around getting him water and stuff and just left a few days before? The chains on the door make me think people were hold out there for a while. I'm sure we'll get more information, cause we definitely need to know how long between gun-shot and awakening, to judge his best friend haha.

Really like the guy from Jericho (the black dude). He's great in these type of shows. I think he makes it down to Atlanta, they wouldn't waste him for just one show. I'm not sure but I think I seen him in one of the previews.

Ok so I just caught the first episode recorded on my DVR. I'm extremely critical of most zombie movies/series... but this one looks like its going to be good. One thing that annoys me right off the bat is the potential love triangle between the main character-his best friend-his wife. That, to me, is cheap script writing but maybe it wont be as bad as I think.

[God]

loved it

Yeah I hate the triangle, I was really hoping that wouldn't play into this show, I hope it's not too lame.

What I really hope for this show, is, it's more than just zombies, that it'll also be about survival, in terms of something like a viral outbreak, etc etc. I always thought that would be an interesting show. If they can add enough of that, and zombies, it'll be cool.

I like zombie killing, but we need more than just that and some love triangle.

Saw they had the guy from Jericho in there. That dude has survived a lot

I was afraid it'd be repetitive (still could be) but it looks like they're putting some effort into showing what post zombie apocalypse life would actually be like if t'were real.

Very well made show. Some truly haunting moments, especially the guy being unable to kill his zombified wife (don't know if I could do it). And the guy showing mercy to the half-zombie in the park...quite the visceral image.

I think what loved most though is the slow buildup. It really worked. Everything is slow and seemingly manageable. The main guy thinks he's able to handle things, and even says so.

Then in literally one second, he rounds a corner and is suddenly in a world of HOLY $#%@!!!

(I call it that because that's pretty much what I said during that scene)

Very few shows have the patience to do that (or I suppose you could say they assume their audiences don't). Kudos to someone for making a show that assumes its audience has a brain.

(or, in this case, braaaaaaaaaiiiins) :eek:

Its based on a comic book you know.

I really liked it.

They actually made the "half zombie" lady kind of pathetic, and in a way, I felt sorry for her, which is crazy. Who ever feels sorry for a zombie?

To not get repetitive, zombies can't always be the focus, survival and other survivors (good/bad/neutral) need to take part some way. I'm hoping they hit all aspects.
