AMC Walking Dead

Well? What did everyone think?

I thought it was extremely well done.

Spoiler Alert!

Top 3 Favorite moments:
1) Rick walking down the hospital corridor and seeing the Don't Open Dead Inside door, those were some creepy fingers
2) Rick turning the corner and seeing the horde in Atlanta and then hauling butt on the horse away from the horde
3) bicycle girl crawling through the park, fantastic effect

Looking forward to episode two.

I thought it was pretty awesome, although I only saw about half of the episode (up to where you are introduced to Rick's wife and son in the survival camp). The zombie effects were insanely awesome, especially the girl who only had her upper half.
Wish I could've seen all of it, but I wasn't about to sit through college classes with only a few hours of sleep.

Gonna watch it tonight, was too worn out from the weekend.

I thought it was really good and can't wait for next week!

I was really looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint! I thought it was very well done and really captured the feel of the original comics.

Don't know if you still need this info or not, but according to the official Walking Dead AMC website you can view it:

Oh good. I was scared that I would never be able to see the sweetness of a cop on a horse bolting from a mass of zombies.
BTW did we wind up finding out what happened to that one guy and his son. The last I saw, he was picking off zombies with headshots from his house window, but couldn't bring himself to shoot his wife.

This show was everything I had hoped it would be. My wife even enjoyed it.

I pretty much knew I was going to like this series even before it came out. The one thing that had me worried was if they were going to be able to properly portray all of the zombie carnage on television. After the opening scene in the gas station I knew everything would be okay.

I don't get AMC where I live, but I like DVD better so I will have to wait a bit longer.

[RabSheila]

Yeah, I'm looking forward to a DVD release of this too.

Lighting, emotion, pace, everything was simply astounding. Gave a lot of credibility to a not so credible genre while still emphasizing on the points that make the genre such a cult phenomenon. I sincerely hope to see more episodes of this.

There were a lot of great parts of this to like. Sadly of course its the differences that bother me that I remember. Just in a half glass full mood I guess. They are humanizing the zombies too much making them do things they wouldn't in the comic and that sort of bothers me. I know it helps flesh out the living characters more but in the comic the zombies are very mindless and that difference is an issue to me.
