    Just watched the second episode on DVR. It was typical zombie good.

    I don't know how you guys are bitching about plot in the second fucking episode...

    Because a three year old with a crayon could come up with a plot just as predictable. I'm sure Norman Reedus will be able to pull the series together in the next episode.

    Typical zombie plot was to be expected, my only complaint was the quite obvious lame writing/acting that ensued when they introduced the new group with the Asian kid. I felt like I was watching dialogue thats typical of a CSI show. Eh, just an opinion though..

    Remember they have to make a full season and future seasons out of this crap. It is going to drag on at some points. Hopefully the finale will be good once character development finishes.

    I loved said "asian kid". Reminding me of Ash from Pokemon. Hat and backpack and all.

    I watched the first two episodes, and it seems pretty bland. The writing sounds straight out of a poorly written comic book...oh wait!!

    No comments yet?

    Episode three had very little zombie killing and more plot development. Episode four will hopefully be the other edge of the sword.

    Yeah I would have to agree. I did enjoy the character development because behind the zombie outbreak and the people fighting to survive, they're people. Don't get me wrong, I never get tired of seeing a zombies head explode from a clean head shot or being beaten in but character development is always good.

    I thought that it was a pretty good episode. For some reason lasts weeks just kept me thinking about bad acting and not much going on, but this week the episode seemed to go by much quicker and was enjoyable to watch for me. Im not a crazy drama fan or anything, I love action, but I just liked this one a lot better than last week's episode. Odd to think the season is half over now.

    The last minute was the best part of the third episode. Set up for a a really good 4th. Hopefully it wont disappoint. Anyone else notice how it stated only 3 episodes left until the end of the season?
