[TV] The Walking Dead

Considering that I hate most people on reality shows, I really wouldn't mind seeing zombies eat them. In fact, I'd pay good money to see those Jersey Shore guidos get theirs.
 
That scene where Rick escapes the tank, running and flawlessy shooting walkers... AWESOME.

He wasted the first bullet, though, that walker he got was behind shit and wouldn't have been able to get to him anyway.

I remember thinking that he had obviously never played Resident Evil, coz you don't shoot zombies that you can't run around.
 
Meanest thing I'll say all day: this commercial started playing while I was fast forwarding through the ads on demand, and I hit stop because I thought she was one of the walkers.

You mean you don't shoot zombies that you CAN run around, right? I agree... he was on the move and that first one he got was on the other side of debris and stuff and would have never gotten to him... that being said, in real life I would have probably emptied my clip on that first one just from sheer panic.. and gotten torn to pieces like the horsey :(
 
Watching the encore presentation now. I kind of wish they had drawn out the reunion scene just a little more. It's just such a happy moment I'd have liked it to last just a little bit longer.
 
Man, I gotta hand it to those guys, that was a great episode. Love that they're building up the tension more between Lori and Shane. It's going to make the inevitable ending all the worse.

Huh. I just realized something: Rick doesn't have his cowboy hat in the show. That's a shame, since I've always loved the image of his son wearing it.

I like how they completely did a 180 on Lori's personality. In the first two episodes it seems like she jumped on the nearest pogo stick after she found out her husband was dead. This episode reveals that Shane is quite a manipulative bastard; it seems he left Rick in the hospital to die because he's always harbored feelings for Lori.

They did think he had been chowed down and converted into... Hmm... I don't know if that works. Do zombies poop? I mean, all that meat and blood has to go somewhere, right?
 
According to Max Brooks, a zombie's digestive system doesn't work. They keep shoving down meat into their stomachs until it either gets forced out through the intestines (they crap out undigested, rotting meat) or the stomach bursts. Even then they'll keep eating because they will feel the biological need to feed regardless.

I think Merle's going to become The Governor. It'll make more sense when he chops off Rick's hand.

AAAUUUGGGHHHH. Goddamn this show. Waiting for each episode is pure torture. :( I really liked the third episode, though! Maybe even more than the 2nd. Even though it was kinda low on zombies.

I can't watch Michael Rooker without thinking about stink palming, though!



Lolz.

Do zombies poop?
Silly Finn! Didn't you hear? Everybody poops.
 
Did I hear right when watching the previews? Only three episodes left? Where the hell did the season go? Was this just a 7 episode season? It's going to suck that it ends in a couple of weeks and then we have to wait almost a year for season 2. Argh!

He has it. After he meets up with the son and father in episode 1 (issue 1), once they stop at the police station for them to stock up on weapons and cars, he gets his hat. He's even wearing it as he rides into Atlanta on the horse. I don't recall seeing it in this episode, he didn't appear to be wearing it when they got back to base camp.

They only ordered 6 episodes. It's understandable. They couldn't be sure that a zombie-themed show would work, much less be so popular. The next season is for a full 13 episodes.

I just mainlined the following two episodes off iTunes after watching the pilot on Hulu, in a single sitting.

Goddamn that's a good show.
 
I can't believe I actually felt sorry for the racist hick. Maybe it was the script, or maybe it was his good acting, but I didn't think he deserved what happened.

Man.... getting eaten alive by zombies vs.
dying over several days, starving, thirsty, and probably covered in agonizing blisters. I felt a bit bad for him too, even though my initial thought was "Well, that nips THAT in the bud." I kept thinking of all the awful things he might have done if he hadn't gotten stuck up there.
 
I must say this is an awesome show.

As for the hat, I thought he lost it when he got taken down on the horse. So maybe he'll get it back if they actually do go back for the guns.

HOLY SHIT THAT ENDING!

When Ed got attacked leading into the camp ambush - scared the living shit outta me
 
About time they started to thin out the ranks of the whiny bitches.

Ed first to go made my day.

Though seeing the sister die was a dead giveway when the other sister was shopping for a gift and was making a big deal of the "wrapping" paper.

PS: Do women REALLY need toilet paper when they go to the washroom to take a piss? Really?

"I died because I was too busy looking for toilet paper to see the slow zombies eat me alive.
