Based on Kirkmans graphic novels,  The Walking Dead on AMC, coming in Oct. !

Cool!

Can't Wait !!! :D

Can't wait either.  I have it written on the calender to be sure I tape it.

LOL I have it on my calendar too.   Told my dh on the 31st we have to be done trick or treating by 8:45,  and I need to be left alone for the next hour.

Yeah I'm hoping this is going to be a good one!!!

I was at NYComic Con this weekend and they had an awesome panel with Kirkman & the cast & producers.  They also showed clips and it looks EPIC.

Can't wait!!

I posted this trailer for the show before, but here it is again for anyone who may have missed it.

I've watched it like 15 times... I'm such a loser geek.  LOL

Looking forward to putting my son to bed and watching it.Its on at 9.00 here and im going to get a vcr tape if they make them lol and if my vcr remembers how to record.Robin

I so want to see this! Gotta wait for the Netflix though.

I am even allowing my children to stay up past their bedtime because they don't want to miss it either.  I would feel quilty if I was the reason they missed something this awesome!  We have read 1-11 of the graphic novels in the past 2 days. They were GREAT! Can't wait!

Well, I missed it! :( Was fighting with my husband instead! Can anyone please tell me what they thought of it. I will try to enjoy it through you.

I thought it was excellent. Started out slow, built up pretty good and the episode's ending was awesome as well. Quite a few sub-plots going on that are worth watching for sure!!! I think you'll love it when you see the next episode!!!

I really enjoyed it, more than I thought I would.  Looking forward to seeing more episode's.

I thought it was really great and definitely surpassed my expectations. Can't wait for the next episode.

Except for one scene (don't want to say, in case someone missed it), I totally loved it.  Can't wait for the next episode.

I loved it! Hooked already. It's about time we had a good zombie series.

I recently changed TV packages, to save some money, and don't get AMC. Is there anywhere to watch this online or am I going to have to wait for it to come to Netflix?

If you missed it or don't get AMC, try this from youtube (it has spanish subtitles, but it shouldn't be too distracting)

Better watch it quick before it gets removed.  It's part 1 of 6 of the pilot.

If it gets removed, try searching "walking dead part 1" in youtube then click on Search Options - Sort by: Upload Date, and you should be able to find a version that YT hasn't gotten around to deleting yet.  You may have to hunt through some lame bait n switch ads for off site websites that say "this video was removed for copyright reasons but the full video can be seen by going to my website... blah blah blah"

SPOILER ALERT:

I thought the zombies were great, a cross between the old school lethargic shambling Romero zombies and the DotD '04 Snyder running zombies, kind of a quick shuffle without raising their knees.

For me the creepiest part was when Rick had to go down the hospital's pitch black stairs by match light.  The old adage is still true, what you can't see is always more scary then what you can see.

The Atlanta scene ought to satisfy any fan of the zompocalypse.  The ending with Rick trapped in the tank in the middle of a city crawling with dead where the radio comes to life saying "Hey, Dum*** in the tank, comfy in there?" got me hooked.

WARNING - POSSIBLE TINY SPOILER TO S. KING'S THE STAND FOLLOWS -

Yes, that stairwell scene was spooky.  I was waiting for a voice to ask the Sheriff if he wanted some chicken.  Because it was very similar to a scene from Kings' The Stand... when Stu is leaving the hospital via a dark stairwell and someone's hand reaches up, grabs his foot and asks him to come down and eat chicken. lol. 

And I agree about that last scene.  That last line added that quirkiness that made me think this just might not be your average zombie apocalypse. 

Michael, if you can get online, AMC's website offers the option to watch the previous episode there...

Thank you, I didn't think AMC replayed episodes online. I'll have to watch it tonight.

i seen it , it was good but not all that.
