| Will sky plus this for sure. Based on possibly the best comic series I've read in years (so I guess I know how the story develops). Highly recommend the books for comic, zombie and any fans of a very dramatic, emotional read. |

I'd be interested to read your thoughts on how it played out for you seeing as you read the comics. For me I certainly didn't expect a television series to be as gruesome as it was. Truly gripping stuff though and I can't wait for the next episode. 5/5

| I'm just disappointed that the first series is only 6 episodes. The excellent Remember When talk about the first couple of episodes, it's well worth a listen. I can't wait for the 2nd one. |

| Robert Kirkman who wrote the comics has been on twitter saying that its been commissioned for another series.
I've read all the graphic novels and as the storyline develops it holds back no punches to the point I dont know how they could turn some of the main story arcs into TV.
The second ep slows down the pace a little and is starting to differ from how I remember the early comics but still looks to be one of the best things on TV along with Mad Men and Dex ( new Dex out in States now ). |

| Loved the first episode, got the 2nd one on Sky+ WHats the guys wife like eh? Zombie Apocalypse is only a week or so old (i think) and she's away with her husbands mate. What a skank! Hope when he catches up with her he gives her a bloody good slap, I know i would.
"left me to rot in that hospital eh! Shagging my mate eh! Come here you...SLAP!" |

The fact that you didn't see his son in the first episode tells me that it's probably been in the coma for a while. His wound seems to have healed & kids grow up fast & I'm guessing that it would have given it away if you'd seen his son before & after his coma. Some of the zombies look like they've been dead for a while too. I look forward to finding out if I'm right. |

I was thinking of the flowers at his bedside when he woke up, all dead and stuff. Dont suppose it was any accurate indication of how long he had been there, but the flowers had not completely withered away to mulsh. |

Yeah, that's what I thought at first, but it was probably done on purpose to throw people off. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm thinking that they probably want you to hate his partner & wife, but you'll find out that it's been over a year or so & his partner has been taking care of her in some pretty difficult circumstances, they thought he was dead, blah blah blah... Then you'll end up sympathising with them. I'm guessing we'll find something out in the next episode. I'm looking forward to it. |
