I completely agree. I've tried to tell people about this show and they just shrug it off saying they don't like zombie stuff. I try to explain that the show's not really about the zombies, that's just the circumstances the people find themselves in. It's more about the characters and the things people are capable of doing in extreme situations that they would normally never be capable of. Of course, the zombies don't hurt either.

I know! I have told so many people. The worst is my sister. She loves True blood but wont give the walking dead a chance ....all while watching the Jersey Shore. Thats the worst

I was trying to watch in between working on a commissioned figure. The custom was frustrating me, so I would mess with during commercials. Glad we get a full season rather than a handful of episodes like season 1.

I think they gave us such a small season cuz they werent sure how it would go over and lets face it they spend waaaaaay too much money on this show to take risks.

Tell me about it!!! I tried to get one of my best friends to watch it for the longest time. He kept saying no, "I hate zombie stuff" So I finally sat him down one day at my house and just put on netflix. As soon as he started watching ep 1 and saw rick blow the head off that little girl he was hooked lol. Still trying to get my GF to watch it

Ah man it was good. Just try to avoid spoilers

LXL_Guy · 10-16-2011, 09:25 PM

Is there a way to post spoilers without others seeing unless they wish to?

I have no idea. I know some sites have spoiler tags that make the person click it to read but I dont know if they have them here.

I read The Boys too, great comics. I've been reading Garth Ennis stories ever since I first picked up a copy of The Preacher.

Already tried, doesn't work.

Anyhow, just finished watching episode 1 of season 2. It was alright. In my opinion it kind of dragged a bit. Nice for more character development but, would have enjoyed more if the plot had taken a few steps forward.

I like the pacing. I mean the walking dead is all about the humans and how they react. Plus seeing the zombies travel in a hoard like that was freaking epic and kind unsettling.

LXL_Guy · 10-17-2011, 01:09 AM

I know, I know. It's always about how the characters handle said situation given to them. Next episode should be better based on events since I'm kind of getting a nice flashback of what is to come.

I did enjoy seeing Darryl do the dirty work. That scene just made me laugh.

Yeah especially considering who he saved. Really big of him.

LXL_Guy · 10-17-2011, 01:23 AM

Still the best addition of new characters I say. I hope he gets a figure.

Guess I missed that. I'll have to go look for that info now.

Edit-
Oops...didn't realize he was part of series 1 for TV show figures. Gotta remember to keep an eye out on that.

Write something like warning spoiler and then tell them what they need to do to read the text. Then put the text in white font or some other light hard to read font so that whoever wants to read it needs to highlight the text to be able to see it.

Thank you for enlightening that for me.

I'm the opposite. Comic series I know I want main cast for sure. I started reading the comics first so only right to do so. TV series ones....that will definitely vary. Though I can say I don't want the zombies. Maybe if I can find them cheaper down the road.

Yeah oddly enough I cannot bring myself to get the Zombies. Not for the price they want right now.

All I know, during the Zombie Apocalypse. Vancouver Island is going to be one of the safest places on earth.
