The Walking Dead - Thoughts?

[Anthropophagus]

The second series was solely on the farm,this series is split between the prison and Woodbury,ok,two different places but the world is a much bigger place.

I would like to see other parts of the world facing the same conflicts rather than the same group over 50 or so episodes,like i keep saying i don`t hate the show but it is becoming tedious.

Did you used to FFWD movies to the action scenes when you were a kid?

Hmm, I hope you're right, but I'm afraid the zombie is the new vampire...

For some reason, I find the slow ones much more creepy. Even though sometimes it's pretty idiotic how their victims seems to just stand there and wait to get caught. But visually, I find them so much more spooky. Maybe because it's easier for me to "believe" that a zombie like that could be sneaking in on me behind my back :D

Its got nothing to do with action,it is about characters i don`t give two shits about dragging through three series in the same locations.

Look,i do like the show,i have already said this but the appeal has now gone.Don`t go bashing me around the head because i don`t feel the same way about it anymore.

****SPOILERS*****





I found the finale... kind of odd. They made this big buildup, saying there was going to be this major battle, and then it was, what- a minute and a half long?

The Governor retreats? Ddn't seem in character for him.

The symbolism of moving the entire town into the prison was pretty moving though. The whole ending seemed a bit rushed.

Thsat said, I found the previous episode far more powerful. Merle's change of heart and then death were so tragic. That was one of the best episodes in the whole series, IMO.

.

Don't 99% of TV series stick with most of the same cast and location for the entire run? ER didn't move to a new hospital every season. Gunsmoke stayed in the same town and had the same characters for all 50 years of its run (yes, I know that's an exaggeration)

SPOILERS AHEAD





So i watched the finale and although i was pleased with it, i had some gripes. Like NE said i was expecting more of a huge battle with a lot of casualties and instead there was only a quick thing and nobody died. There was no altercation between Michonne and The Governor or Rick and The Governor and I was expecting more of a huge epic conclusion like in the second season but the powerful heartfelt ending did fit well for this season.

I loved the part with Milton and Andrea and once again they were able to make me care about a character when i previously didn't like them as they did with Merle.

My biggest complaint is that season 1 and season 2 changed the dynamic of the show after each season but there still in the prison and the governor is still alive. I'm worried that the fourth season is going to be exactly the same and that they'll just drag it out because it worked before.

I love where they seem to be going with Carl. The transformation of Carl over this season has been great already. A character i hated last season has become one of my favorite and i hope they use him more next season.

Tried to watch but I can't get pass the five minute mark. What can I say I'm just not a zombie guy. I've always found the premise dumb especially in this series. I read the first 7 volumes because my friend lent them to me. It's hard to imagine these people are surviving this world but the armies of the world somehow lost. Most of the zombies are easy to kill.

I don't see a TWD thread, is that because everybody here thinks it's naff as well?

I enjoyed the first series and maybe the next but other than that I lost interest quite a long time ago. The comics are much more enjoyable.
