Calling it now... Lindsay Lohan cameo.yeah- the last sentence is why I don't think it's a virus or flu.
if "everybody has it" within weeks, but it doesn't kill you- just turns you into a zombie when you die (or accelerates your death when bitten), IMO it's some kind of crazily quick/instantaneous goofy reason (asteroid dust, water fluoridation, VBD, etc)... not something actually plausible, like a viral pandemic.
The legend of Carl and his ability to eat giant amounts of pudding had to have spread across the country.So, who thinks that the cast/characters from each Walking Dead show will all eventually meet up somewhere? Or at least reference each other in some way?

Hey, it was a two step google search for TWD virus and then TS-19 script and Frank Viola, there was all the info. I thought the doc said something about it and thought maybe he even said virus. He did say it was possible, but with the meningitis, seems like they pointed to that. Then the flu talk in the preview was the show folks using the CDC info and figuring out what would make the most sense. Wile E Coyote, super genius.wow."Infected", because "We're coming up with as much cool West Coast verbiage as we can". Per producer Dave Erickson.lolcatswonder what they will call the undead in this one--- all the good ones are taken:
biters, walkers, eaters, geeks.. need some new zombie nicknames
but if that's a real quote, I'm switching over and supporting Bug's well-laid out theory. plus, people that have encyclopedic memory about this crap and can pull out bits of info from random episodes years ago... frighten me.
Agreed. I think we can assume with all the global travel/shipments/heck even migrating birds that all regular populations have the virus, but we don't really know about the isolated folks. Although with all the zombies and over a year, not far fetched to think that zombies themselves have reached a lot of remote areas. Still, no way would they have made it everywhere.Who said they have it even in The Walking Dead? We've never seen isolated populations.well if its spread from person to person and it started in ,say the church, how would isolated tribes in the amazon get the virus ...just using them as an example
I agree completely on the no explanation. I do think it will be implied that this flu was what started it, but I think it will get so bad so quick that there won't be an explanation or we won't see someone figure out what happened.The how and the why of the virus wont be explained. If the CDC didnt know, how will these people?
Plus thats part of the charm, its random and no one will ever know the origin. Yeahhhh
I know Kirkman has said in the past he won't reveal what started the ZA.I agree completely on the no explanation.

Iirc, this same question was asked during the Comiccon panel and they said not going to happen. But I think that was in reference to the two casts meeting up in some way, not neccessarily any "references" although I'm not sure how it would. I think Tyrese was suppoused to be a famous sports player in the comic, but they left that out of the show IIRC.So, who thinks that the cast/characters from each Walking Dead show will all eventually meet up somewhere? Or at least reference each other in some way?
Gloria.......First 3 minutes of Episode 1 trailer released: http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/news/watch-gruesome-first-three-minutes-of-fear-the-walking-dead-20150820
Really kicking things off with a bang copying the first scene from 28 Days Later.
I bet it's the Latino family from S1 that left Rick and the group.The legend of Carl and his ability to eat giant amounts of pudding had to have spread across the country.So, who thinks that the cast/characters from each Walking Dead show will all eventually meet up somewhere? Or at least reference each other in some way?
But yeah, I did read somewhere there was speculation about this... I'm going off my hazy memory here, something like Andrea (wasn't she an attorney?) showing up in LA for something.
Because he has never thought of anything himself.JoeSteeler said:I know Kirkman has said in the past he won't reveal what started the ZA.stbugs said:I agree completely on the no explanation.

i fear this threadNot sure what I am looking forward to more. Fear the Walking Dead show or this thread.
I am pretty sure it started because a guy had sex with a diseased giraffe.Because he has never thought of anything himself. That and nothing started it anyway. It just happened.I know Kirkman has said in the past he won't reveal what started the ZA.I agree completely on the no explanation.

Which is in direct contradiction to my opinion on TWD, when I thought they wasted half a season with the governor and didn't show enough zombies. But for the beginning of the series, this is the way to go about it IMOI'm glad they aren't rushing into showing zombies non-stop. People's reactions and seeing the decay of modern civilization is much more interesting to me than the whole "let's sneak into a dark house, OMG THERE'S A ZOMBIE IN HERE, kill it, rinse, repeat"
it was an hour and a half about one family that just so happened had direct confrontations with THREE separate zombies. I wouldnt have minded a show about the destruction of society but that wasnt it. I realize it was just one episode though but that was disappointing opening.I'm glad they aren't rushing into showing zombies non-stop.

Very possible. Ditto the restaurant in Mulholland Dr. and The Big Lebowski. A diner exists in L.A. specifically for use on TV shows and movies.Was that the same restaurant as in Pulp Fiction?
I thought I read somewhere that this season was going to be a slow burn. So if lots of zombie's is your thing for season one you may be disapointed,it was an hour and a half about one family that just so happened had direct confrontations with THREE separate zombies.

I am surprised there are any Z's in this episode at allI thought I read somewhere that this season was going to be a slow burn.
