honestly, this looks like trash. Based on the teaser i saw, it looks to be the absolute worst part of horror/scifi stories, the part where no one believes the monster is real until it's too late... it's infuriating to watch as a viewer who knows for sure that the monster is real.
Hopefully that's just the pilot.
Also, it just doesn't look to be the same quality as TWD in terms of art direction; it looks more like a CBS (or worse, TNT) drama.
Yeah, it might end up being a cliche horror sort of thing; we'll have to wait and see.
In any case, the potential for it to expand upon existing Walking Dead continuity is why I'm looking forward to it. I mean, not even the comics have depicted the proverbial "world before", so in that respect this is a fresh concept.

so it looks like this will indeed be chock full of disbelief and panic... not that interested; that's the least exciting part of horror/scifi. The great thing about TWD was that it skipped all that bullshit and threw us right into the madness... we didn't have to watch people doubt what was happening or get beat over the head with exposition.
Honestly, the only thing I'm interested in seeing from a pre-apocalypse world, is patient zero and how it actually started.
So just watched the pilot a little bit ago. It didn't really show how the outbreak started, per se (am hoping it'll get to that later though), but slowly built up to it happening in the given area. Was a little hard to sit through most of it but the ending kinda made it worth it, I guess.
Not the worst first impression for this series but not as bad as I thought it'd be, either. Just kinda... Meh. Certainly no substitute for TWD season 6.

Okay, so I'm very interested in the plot. That being said, I cannot stand the lead woman's junkie son... One episode in and he's already annoying the shit out of me. Hopefully his BS tones the f*ck down.

[b]Hopefully it has to be better then the description my sat menu gave for it. First sentence was" A Dysfunctional Blended Family..." That alone almost killed all interest I had for the show right there. [/B]

Also the other lame thing about zombie movies: how we're expected to believe that brainless zombies who can't run somehow destroy all society and overwhelm the world's militaries.
Its because they can run now...
Really OV. This was debated back when the DOTD remake came out. Try to keep up.
