 Re: The Walking Dead on AMC cable channel
Just a little announcement:
March 8th is the DVD/Blu-ray release date for Season One of The Walking Dead television series. The Blu-ray disc is slated to have the following extras:
• The Making of The Walking Dead • Inside The Walking Dead: Episode 1-6 • A Sneak Peek with Robert Kirkman • Behind the Scenes Zombie Make-Up Tips • Convention panel with producers • Extra Footage (Zombie School, Bicycle Girl, On Set with Robert Kirkman, Hanging with Steven Yeun, Inside Dale's RV, On Set with Andrew Lincoln) • Trailer
I don't know if the regular DVD will contain the same extras.

 Re: The Walking Dead on AMC cable channel
I caught up with this show late in the season, but I really enjoyed what I saw, so I'll be around for season 2. I'm hoping they do some better writing for the womens' characters, though, and add some stronger women. If things continue with the whole 'alpha male' standard, I'll probably stop watching the show, even though the storyline is pretty riveting.

Same here... well not a VCR but the V+ box in the living room... my memory is too friable these days to remember when stuff is on and with the timer set to "record all" I don't have to remember at all!

 Re: The Walking Dead on AMC cable channel
Who's watching the start of Season 2, that starts TONIGHT? I am! I've been waiting for this (although I'm way behind in reading the comics). Anyway, this is a headsup for everyone that Season 2 starts TONIGHT! Wheee! Quote: 'The Walking Dead' Season 2 will premiere with an extra helping of zombies -- and footage. Yep, starting Oct. 16 at 9PM, audiences will get 90 minutes of zombie apocalypse goodness on AMC.
The 90-minute premiere will also launch globally on all Fox International Channels during the week of Oct. 17-23. 'The Walking Dead' Season 2 will be seen in 122 countries and translated into 35 different languages. Full news article here-- Nephele

I'm watching it right now, Neph! So far, it's a nail-biter. I think I may dress as a zombie this Halloween!

I especially liked the bit where the walker herd came along, and everyone had to keep real quiet until the walkers had passed by. I was holding my breath most of the time!What I did NOT like were all the long commercial breaks! By the last hour (or maybe closer to the end), the breaks were coming every four to five minutes! And lasting four to five minutes! I timed them. I'm so disgusted, I won't be watching the series on teevee again. If they have the episodes online, and the commercial breaks are more reasonable, maybe then I'll continue to watch. Otherwise, I'm done. Commercial greed is killing the series for me. -- Nephele
