Amaranthus   10 #1 Posted October 19, 2013 Anyone watching? Just watched the first episode and feeling a little disappointed. It just felt like they're struggling for ideas a bit. Maybe I'm being a little judgemental and should give it a chance but am not impressed at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
medusa   16 #2 Posted October 19, 2013 It was a bit of a nothingness really, wasn't it? I'm not sure where the 'end' of a story such as this is likely to be though, so it's possible that the concept is limited to a fairly short run and I wouldn't like to have to come up with new ideas 3 or 4 series in.

Amaranthus   10 #3 Posted October 19, 2013 It was, yes. Well I was hoping it was going to sort of flow on from where S3 left it, but it seemed to start off by grasping at new ideas. That kid dying at the end and turning; screamed desperate to me, like they were wracking their brains and then some bright spark had a 'eureka' moment and thought it would spice the situation up. I don't know... I was just expecting more... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tinfoilhat   11 #4 Posted October 19, 2013 Had plenty of snap and crackle, they came out, attacked it. Lots of zombies killed, some new faces (now at least two ex-the wire actors) and most of the same faces. Some signs of progress camp-wise to still showed the fragility of it all. I think they have touched on a few bits that need fleshing out - military involvement (ive wanted to know governments role in since the end of series 1)and the kid who turned at the end.  Not brilliant but not bad.

medusa   16 #6 Posted October 20, 2013 No, it's on Fox at the moment. Channel 5 had the earlier series so I assume they will have season 4 at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
dogwoody18 Â Â 10 #7 Posted October 20, 2013 Alongside Dexter, I think The Walking Dead is one of the best Tv shows ever. I cannot wait for the next episode which I can watch Monday on my Raspberry Pi gadget P.s Before I get slated I was also one of LOST's biggest fans lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

shells2909 Â Â 10 #10 Posted October 20, 2013 Been waiting for season 4 for what feels like forever! Wasn't disappointed at all. Bit confused about the woman in the woods tho - does anyone else think Rick will regret not "killing" them (or just me ) Glad to see Rick is back to his usual self. Would love to see Daryl and Carol get together at some point. Looking forward to the second episode! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
