Did anybody watch the premiere of this? It aired on Halloween night. It's a new TV series based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman. I've been a long-time fan of the comics, but I definitely wasn't disappointed by the show!

looks amazing considering the all star directors,producers ect.

I'll give it a shot if someone else gives it a recommendation

It's like a spin-off of 28 days later xD

Pretty decent show...kinda intrigued by zombie and such...could be a bit better but the themes of just how far a human can go in terms of survival and compassion really do make the show a bit better...plus gratuitous zombie killings are a bit awesome...I think it will get better def another tv show to as to my dls...should be interesting to see how the main character changes overtime.

Hahah well your storyline is pretty limited when you're talking zombie apocalypse films. Virus spreads, people try to survive, its a bit inevitable.

I watched the first episode online because I wasn't home on Halloween night, but I don't think computer quality did it any justice. Stoked for the new episode.

If normal definition isn't enough for you, maybe you should upgrade to the 720p feeds :3

Was pretty intrigued by all the stuff I read about it online so I gave it a go. Was... neat, I suppose. I'll probably add it to my download list if I run out of stuff to watch.

I'd recommend it, the first episode seemed pretty good to me and the effects are actually quite impressive for a TV show. I kind of got the feeling it'll be a combination of The Stand and 28 Days Later judging from the first episode.

[Waser Lave]

Looks alot like 28 days from the start of it, however in 28 days they weren't zombies, they were people contaminated by pure RAGE.

Different virus, similar effects (and in The Walking Dead they actually seem to move quicker than say Romero's zombies, though not as quick as those in 28 Days Later obviously). I can understand why people describe 28 Days Later as a zombie film even though they're wrong.

I'll end up watching it but I quite like the comics so I'm slightly reluctant to...

[Lineage]

I'm not a fan of zombie/scary movies..
I don't really watch movies in general though because I don't have the attention span for it, so who knows.

[dirigibleplum]

There's a new episode on tonight for anyone who sees this!

Let's say I was forced to watch the pilot episode, all because my husband was freaking out (and he knows that I do not like the genre ¬ ¬)
Can I say that is ridiculous, are not enough people already thousands of zombie movies? now comes with a series?
Have patience.

And do not come to criticize me for expressing my opinion, the forum is open to this

Well, I like zombies, but I haven't been gripped by this series. I don't have attention problems,(I read "The English Patient" and sat through the entire 12 hour movie), but I haven't been able to sit through either episode of this series. I don't know if it's because it's seemingly aimless, or if the actors suck, or bad writing, or what. I can't bear to watch it. And, hello, I watch Supernatural religiously. Something is very wrong.

But this is not your ordinary zombie show. The first episode has pacing issues sure but the action picks up later on.

the problem is that still are zombies

[bruh]

I love the show. I can't wait to see the next episode.

[iomega]

the trailer does make it seem alot like 28days later and resident evil. might give this a try after my exams.

[yoongguk]

I shall be watching online/downloading as the episodes appear online.

Norman Reedus was in tonights one which, to be honest, was my main interest in the whole show to begin with. I actually ended up liking the show though.
