  • No, Green Bay plays tonight and that's more important to me. Otherwise, yes I'd watch. I'll find it online somewhere tomorrow or Tuesday.

    Why do you wish? You're not a Dish subscriber are you?

  • Loved the episode. Never know what's going to happen episode to episode. Was kind of confused about the stupidity of running into the area's of the fence where there were walkers though, seriously I know sitting at the fence and killing them 1 by 1 behind the safety isn't exactly good for time restraints, but it's not like they couldn't just fast forward through that. Makes absolutely no sense running around the inside of fences and putting yourself at risk when it really is annoyingly obvious that only bad things can happen from doing it.

  • I did not read any posts for fear of spoilers. We are almost done with 2 and I have the DVR taking care of 3 until we can catch up.

  • I'm blogging my thoughts on the season as it goes along, fwiw. I'm a huge fan of the show and was happy with the opener.

    That's pretty spot on actually. Like you, I am more into the character development and how they survive in the post apocalyptic world, than I am into the zombie killing gore. The gore doesn't bother me, but I find it secondary in nature to the storyline. I also have not read the comics, although I have cheated some by reading reference material online that refers to the comics, but I have found that the show does not follow the comics entirely. ie in the comics Dale is alive and Laurie is dead. But the main storyline remains the same, so I knew the prison, and Michonne, and the governor were all coming down the pike. All in all I rank the Walking Dead right next to Son's of Anarchy as must see tv.

  • I agree with you Todd. I cannot stand Lori, and honestly kinda want that baby to be a zombie that eats her from the inside.

    I'm going to need to pick up the comics sometime.

  • Love it, Todd. Keep posting those here. It seems like we have a pretty similar view of the show.

    Der I know you are new to message boards and it's really not a big deal. You didn't really spoil anything. But the op didn't have *spoiler warnings* in the title. So try not to post about specifics about the new episode. If you do include *Spoiler Warning* or something like that first, so people know not to read on.

    That being said I think we need a spoiler warning walking dead thread here. So maybe JS can edit the title to include spoiler warnings or I can start a new thread?

    Morrison I did upvote you. But I also made sure not to read the thread until I watched it. It's not like Der made a thread title spilling anything. I'm gonna give Der a pass on this one.

    The complete lack of detail in my post requires no spoiler warnings. This is a Walking Dead thread where we're most likely going to be talking about the episodes. If you don't want to see any "spoiler alerts," don't read what we're saying until you see the episode.
