We loved it, especially when he asked for a 'sign' and look what he got... Shocked


That was superbly done, was dreading something glurgey was about to happen and then bam! subverted! Shocked

I think this season is working out quite well, this weeks wasn;t too bad for a budget saver episode.

I'm watching it in the UK, and we're a week behind the US.

So no spoilers! Razz

I just got round to watching the mid-season finale episode which was shocking and incredibly emotional, I thought they did a great job.

Bit puzzled by the concept of a "mid-season finale" though!

Wow! And I was thinking they'd just done another short season... more in February! Very Happy

Heh, we liked the twist. You find out why someone wanted someone to, er, do something rather than another thing.

It's a fancy American term for a Christmas break Wink

They don't have a break, they have a hiatus!

I hate mid-season breaks. Had a nice Monday night AMerican horror Story and The Walking Dead doublebill routine going.

Interesting to see if they continue season two down on the farm or if they move it on to a new setting. My bet, they head onwards to the military base and instead of finding help become prisoners in some kind of predictable Guantanamo allegory.

The show could work with them constantly moving on across America for years but they seem to get bogged down in human drama too much. I just wanna see zombie shootouts! Twisted Evil

Someone tell me I'm not the only one who thought that was a homage to Bad taste? Laughing

Season 2 started up on Channel 5 last night. I'll keep watching, but the problem for me is interesting situations cursed with incredibly boring characters. My eyes glaze over zombie-like when a conversation goes on for more than thirty seconds. Plus that cliffhanger was a bit rubbish.

Interesting to see one of the characters choosing the loudest motorcycle in the world as a means of transport. Then they wonder why the zombies are following them along the road.

I'd like to see the fuel will run out so that the survivors have to take up cycling. Pedalling like buggery, wild-eyed with fear, pursued by shambling wrecks of humanity. A bit like my daily commute. Laughing
