The Walking Dead
 

So is anyone else stoked for season 2! I know I sure am. I have been watching an episode a day of season one since last week and tomorrow Sunday morning AMC will be playing a marathon. I loved the walking dead season 1 so I am very excited and can't wait to see where we go next on this amazing journy

Kind of excited and kind of not. I enjoy that the show is different from the comics for sure. I mean in the idea of adding Darryl to the line up. Anyhow, last episode of season 1 just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Really didn't care to know the why and how.

Being different then the comic has been a huge plus for me. With the comic having so many issues and me being a huge comic fan it makes things more spoiler free.

I haven't got into the show myself yet, heard good things, just haven't made the time, will watch it eventually, Love the toys, they look awesome. And nice to see a comic line that is seperate from the show, that way fanboys are pissed when comic accuracy isn't portrayed and it gives fans something else to enjoy between episodes and seasons.

Well if your sunday is free then they are playing all of season 1 leading in to season 2

I'm so looking forward to season 2. Big time. I know exactly where I'll be every Sunday night for the next few months; with my ass parked directly in front of my television. I was completely hooked during season 1 and I expect nothing different for season 2.

And I have to agree with you about the show being just different enough to allow for some nice surprises. I'm just a little concerned with all the behind-the-scenes drama that happened during production that ended with Frank Darabont leaving (being let go from) the show. I really hope it doesn't affect the outcome.

I'm looking forward to it. Apparently there are 6 webisodes that shed some light onto events that took place prior to the first episode. I haven't seen them. My brother said it explains how that woman zombie that was missing her lower half, got that way. She's seen in the first episode.

You know what. If this was on almost any other channel Id agree but AMC has always been very good at keeping their programs good. I heard something like this had happened with Mad Men (don't know for sure cuz I don't watch the show) and they are still getting high praise. The differences from the comics add a whole new level of suspense. It has me worried about characters who are alive in the comics.

Also ever since boondock saints I cant deny anything Norman Reedis does :)

He does play a pretty badass character in this. Kind of a bitch sometimes, but definitely someone I'd want on my side.

I just can't wait to see what happens whrn he runs in to his brother again. I think Merle Dixon will create a HUGE chasm between the comics and the show :/

Which would be okay as long as certain plot points remain here and there I want to say. Otherwise that's probably the best addition for the live action.

I just hope it doesn't come down to them trying to find a cure and such.

I don't wanna say too much as not to spoil the comic for those who havent read plus if I am right in my theory then that may be considered spoiling lol. But I feel like Merle will drasticlly change a plot point event that happened in the comics. We will see.

Also I won't be surprised if at some point the search for a "cure" but surviving will be there main concern may be a bit too busy to constantly be looking for cures. The TV series seems to have far more hope then the comics. Helicopter, Vatos, CDC. All things that imply there is hope.

I am stoked, but certain events need to happen in season 2 for it to be a hit, for me.

If your talking about what I think you are then thats one of the biggest things Im concerned about.

Agreed, agreed, agreed. That is well stated sir. I mean big ones that took place should happen to give it a good shock factor. Just handle it differently and BAM I'll be back on the bandwagon.

Oh I think you might, as much as I like the character, it has to happen.

I don't mind directors adding more to the stories, but they damn well better not change it to damn much. As I said _____ has to die, even if its at the end of season 2, that be awsome!

Oh you meant that? Oh yeah they have to die. I was thinking about a certain characters personal loss. I don't think it will be lost in the show.

cant wait for it to start,love this show.

Only thing that kinda sucks is the new Director, they gave the old one the boot :(

That conforts me, then worries me. Maybe he wanted it to be more like the comics? Or maybe he didn't. Rather scary.

Im gunna give him a chance before I pass judgement on how he does.

same here, love the fact that they went away from the comic. but i think its still kinda early for that to happen(if your talking about, what i think you are).

Agreed. I kknow this is already season two but people gotta remember season one was only six episodes.

That's right. Changes here and there are fine. I'm with ya on ____ dying along with ____, _____, ______, _____, and etc.

That's what I loved most. Those deaths are significant and a must.

I kinda disagree. I really dont think ______ Needs to die. ______, ______, ______, & ______ need to die for sure. But not really ______
