The walking dead, and other shows.

Does anyone watch this?

I have been watching this (all 6 episodes on netfilx Sunday) as well as firefly (AWESOME!) and Merlin.

So far out of all three TWD was the most exciting constantly, but in Merlin and (more so) firefly the characters seem easier to care about and I had no WTF moments.

The Walking Dead is pretty good, pretty big cliffhanger on the season premier...

I learned recently that it is based off a comic book...

Yep, I might check into the comics, I have not seen season 2 because I do not have cable, only netflix.

Maybe I can catch it on the internet some where, but I like no commercials.

I just had a lot of why did he do that moments in the show.

Such as these.
WARNING spoilers for season one!



Like why did he not go def after firing that big old revolver (.357 colt) in the tank.
Why did it not bounce around in there?

Why did he not try to start the tank up and drive away?

Why did that guy cut his hand off (was it even his hand?) instead of the rusted all thread looking bolt, or try to break the bolt by kicking it.

It seems very unlikely he is alive, as he was only hired for 2 shows.

How did they start that doge with a screw driver (really now?) and why did it start with the alarm on?


END spoilers.

Other wise, its a good show.

I just watched season 1 of TWD this week also. I have really enjoyed it so far. I watched the season 2 premeire yesterday on tv-links.eu. I use that site to watch a lot of shows since I dont bother with cable/sat. I can't wait for the next episode.

Firefly was an awesome series and I wish it lasted longer. After you finish Firefly don't forget to watch the follow up movie Serenity.

The Walking Dead series is awesome and the books are a good read too. The series is following the books pretty closely so far.

I have alot of shows that I've been watching while deployed.

Jersey Shore - just entertaining
Dexter - awesome show
Homeland - show has a very interesting storyline
The Playboy Club - to bad it got cancelled
American Horror Story - I think it's stupid, but hoping I can understand it
Sons of Anarchy - makes me want to join a biker gang
Californication - just waiting on new season
The Vampire Diaries - Twilight version for TV.
The Secret Circle - witches, just entertaining
The Walking Dead - it's like Left 4 Dead but a TV show.

My wife sent me season one earlier this year, I watched it in a day, just couldn't stop. I watched the season premier the other day, reminded me why I usually watch these shows after the season is over. Got caught up on Sons of Anarchy the other day too. I really need to get home so I can watch all this stuff on my TV.

The Walking Dead, Sons of Anarchy, Justified, NCIS: Los Angeles and Californication are my favorite shows. I wish they would bring Sleepercell back.

I've heard good things, but haven't started watching yet. From what I've heard you have to start at the beginning. Never saw an episode of Lost or 24 either, but both are on my "to do list."

True, it would be like trying to read a book and starting in the middle.
I happened to catch the first episode when it aired and was hooked.
The series is well written and has first rate cast performances.

Because it is a TV show. Don't get to caught up in the details, I mean it's a show about the zombie apocalypse. We have them under control and there is no way they are going to get out and eat everybody.

The one that had me going WTF is when the deputy was in the hospital after being shot. He got out and still had a hole in him. That means he was in there a few weeks max. Somehow his wife was able to mourn and saddle up a new cowboy in about a month. WTF.

I think she is playing both sides

Anyway, look at the contract lengths and you will see what happens to who and when. I did.
