I love Walking Dead but hate how slow things always are at the start of the season. Episode 2 of the new series was slow and I think 3 & 4 will be the same.
But if this new "safe place" the guy was talking about is the one in the comics that the Governors town should have been, then Rick and Carl might be getting some pretty big injuries.

at this pace they'll get to the end of the rail road track by the end of this season, leaving everyone on a freaking cliff hanger as usual

There isn't a better zombie tv show, but I would have enjoyed this more if it starred Will Smith, and had actual zombies you should be scared of. The zombies in the Walking Dead are mostly just idiots waiting to be violently beaten for ratings. The fight scenes can be borderline staged, and horribly choreographed.

Not sure if there are official stats, but watching this last episode made me realize that it's seems very likely that most of the survivors would be ex military, police, outdoorsman, survivalists.
There would be no hipsters in post zombie apocalypse earth.

the story is just about to evolve to something after 4 episodes, about time! This is the slowest season yet.

Eugene is a fraud that has tricked a not so smart military guy to protect him. He's prob just a nerdy conspiracy theorist. Annoyed me how shit he was at shooting considering whats been going on for so long.
New "hot" girl will not last long, prob just half way through the season unless those that have not seen a woman before suddenly tune in and viewers boom.
I hope they stick to the comics a bit more now.

just wondering who here never read the books and those that sstill read it?
i read it. since it came out.
i ask because even though the tv show differs from the books, it still came from it, so those who read it, know what can happen.. vs just imaging what will happen..
just read the comments on this page.. it made me wonder.. so show your stuff kthxbye
- read a few of the graphic novels in no particular order._niko
- I read the book but stopped for no real reason, only watched the 1st season and thought it sucked so I never continuedGeorgesIV
- maybe I should start again, but I've read so many awesome comic/manga in the meantime, so I'm not in a hurryGeorgesIV
- I have read all of themKnuckleberry
- None of them. I was afraid of spoilers even though they seem to veer enough in the TV stories.CyBrainX

i watched the show up to the first half of this season without ever reading the comics, and i gotta say i enjoyed it immensely. I started reading the comics cuz i couldnt wait for the show to start back up again, and i was blown away at how closely it followed, yet paradoxically how different it seemed. Its like the comic lays out a blueprint, but then the show runs that blueprint through a guy who just smoked 2 joints and they make it deeper / richer / more detailed / go off on different tangents, etc.
The only issue i have now that I'm caught up to where the show is in the comics is that i feel like I can expect what is generally going to happen once they get to the new community.. I may be wrong on the specifics, but yea, there is an element of surprise lost.

WTF did I watch last nite?! The prison is gone and with it their only shelter so Beth decides the right thing to do is get liquored up?! Ok. Sure, I get it, but maybe not encourage the only person within godknows how many miles that can actually protect your ass to get drunk as well. While on the subject of shelter, the girl then decides to burn down the next house...at night. 24 hours ago you were sweating and freaking out in a trunk of a car. At least wait until morning to make your symbolic gesture to the past. Also, Sad Daryl?! Truly it is the apocalypse! Episode Rating: One empty can of pudding!
- pudding comes in cans?
dasohr - The episode prior had stupid Carl eating a can of pudding. I thought THAT was the worst episode...until nowGM278

- i understand the burning. IT's purging their pre-zombie selves. It's a symbolic gesture and imetuous, but those sorts of things rarely wait until morning, otherwise they lose their meaning/impact. Plus, they WERE drunklocustsloth

- I know. What's with the character development, and showing shades of humanity?ETM
- I wish they just killed like a 100 zombies every episode. Boy, I'd watch that every week!ETM
- HAHAH ok ok. I just thought it was the wrong time.GM278
- for the record, i liked sad Darryl. The episode just took too long to developlocustsloth

Yeah, even for me, who is VERY forgiving of the show, last night's episode was a stinker. THey could have compressed everything into half the time and still had the same impact (as well as having time to tell someone else's story). Nothing worthwhile happens until 45min in.
- < agreed. I've forgiven A LOT on the show and I'm not one to rant, but that just sucked.GM278

I don't see a problem with taking time to tell a story. They took a character we rarely see (Beth) and a fan fav like Daryl that we know little about and built them up more. They didn't make perfect choices... because I guess no one every says "fuck it" in regards to the smart decisions when they are down and out. We see real people do things like that everyday.
- I was ok with all of that, but it was a slow episode.CyBrainX
