No you will say, I will give it one more episode to get better or I am quitting...OK one more episode...Promise, the payoff of the season 2 final episode is worth itYou'll end an episode and say to yourself... OK one more, then I have to go to bed. After a while you'll be like, #### it, I can go a day without sleep.
Almost gave up multiple times. I stuck around after the changes were announced in the middle of season two.Glad I did. Night and day, imo. 
Last two in this set are spoilers as to who will be in this season. Excited about the last one.
Saw that today.. The Photo's and the below "spoiler" have me
for season 3.
In regards to "spoilers", maybe so, but it is the main Walking Dead website.
Prison is a cold, cold place.
Stumbled across that by mistake. Mad at myself because I try to be spoiler-free but pumped at the same time. Season 3 should be amazing.'Steed said:
No, not close. It is a step or two down from Breaking Bad or Mad Men. But it has it moments and finished really strong at the end of Season 2. And season 3 looks to be really good
Honestly, the show is really terrible. But nonetheless extremely entertaining.
I disagree 100% on that.personally, I thought the darabont eps were best, and the s02 finale was weak.I was a walking dead junkie, but I don't hold out much hope for s03.
It's a terrific show. I was surprised at how much better it got in Season 2 after Darabont was fired given how instrumental he was in developing the show and delivering the first season. But I think the show has gotten better without him. It's progressed at an impressive rate and the second half of Season 2 built and built to an outstanding finish. I haven't read the comics but by all accounts the upcoming storylines which will be the centerpieces of Season 3 are the meat of the books so things could get even more amazing next season.
there was some stuff floating around the net about the budget issues for s02, and what most likely led to darabont's departure.the network wanted to cut budget after a hugely successful s01, so they were sending them shownotes asking if maybe we could just hear the zombies instead of seeing them to save make up budget, etc.

You know you are in a small minority here
I have no idea what the % is, but I have heard a lot of people who have both liked and disliked it.then again, an assload of people like two and a half men, and michael bay, so I'm not sure if number of people liking something is much of a measure.
I think you're the first person I've ever seen that prefered the earlier parts of the series to the later installments. This is hard to wrap my mind around.
s02 is actually slower than s01, which is generally the source of complaints.but, what you should know is that kirkman, the guy who created the comic, wrote it not so much as a zombie story, but as a story about people, using zombies as furniture.so, if you're looking for just a bunch of L4D action, you'll probably be disappointed, although some i sprinkled in there.
It's more of a slow build without character development.
Middle of season 2 is tough to get through. It's easier if you are not watching it weekly though. I'd get through the first 2 seasons and try to watch it in real time in season 3. End of 2 was pretty cool.
Once you get to the end of Season 2 and see everything that's gone down the deliberate pacing earlier in the season makes a lot of sense. There were so many huge payoffs in the season that I think needed the time that was spent setting them up was necessary and ultimately effective. Because of that the deliberate pace never bothered me while it was going on but there were definitely fans and critics who wanted more "action" than the season was delivering early on. There's definitely no shortage of that in the second half of Season 2 and the last two episodes are very intense because everything reaches a boiling point and (literally in some cases) explodes.I think it's worth noting that the slower-paced episodes of Season 2 came when Darabont was still in charge. The pace certainly picked up in the episodes following his firing but by all accounts that was the plan for the season all along - slower pace in the first half/more intense in the second half.
That's a little unfair. The episodes devoted to T-Dog really do a good job fleshing him out.
I got through the middle of season 2 by mockery. There was some major terrible there, but I chckled my way through it. Second half of S2 is much better.
He gave it everything he had during those two sentences in Season 2.
you guys can laugh all you want, but I'd be hiding too if I overheard a bunch of white people talkin' about lynching someone.they were all in there in that room deciding that kid's fate, t-dog walks by with a plate of waffles and that's the last we see of him.
Let me shorten the 98 pages down to about 7 for you in the following 6 words. "this show sucks""no it doesn't"Your welcomeThe marathon is underway!
Enjoy the show.
End of season 1 still to come.
Cool thanks. Yep they just started talking about it.
Character development?
I enjoy the show but the characters are awful and there is very little development of almost all of them. That, and the writing is cheesily terrible. But it has zombies so I keep watching.
Tomorrow night after they run both seasons.
This question is answered in episode 19.
I stopped after S2 E1 but have the rest DVR'd now. I wanted to watch when they were originally running S2 but knew I had to start from the beginning, so I'm glad they ran the whole series this weekend while it's 102 degrees in NC.
I also watched a little of the beginning of 28 Days Later last night, such a great movie. I know they're not technically zombies but they're much faster & more violent, I'd rather face the Walking Dead zombies! I'm not knocking the show, just sayin...
yeah, that's answered later, but the army had been at that hospital you mentioned, so all those bodies under the sheets might've been shot in the head.
Walking Dead rocks. 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later are two of my favorite zombie/horror movies, could and have watched them repeatedly. Danny Boyle ever gets around to doing 28 Months Later, I'll be right in line to see it at the movies.I stopped after S2 E1 but have the rest DVR'd now.
