[doctor_doom]

am I the only one still watching walking dead

i dunno

I saw the first episode then stopped watching

second season any good?

also finally started watching Twin Peaks

Eastbound and Down last week was weird

[icandunkonu]

2nd season been straight, Shane been keeping it real and Lori is annoying as fuck, but it's been fairly solid, especially since they returned from break

[kansas]

[gettoasty]

Is season 2 of Homeland ready yet?

Watched the entire season of game of thrones last night. Pretty emotionally exhausting.

Also walking dead fucking killed it tonight.

Love how the season is turning out, I really feel like they can go in a new direction from what has happened in the last couple of episodes and develop the story and bring out new story arcs from the comic and etc

^^^ I haven't read the comics, but I'm hoping shit goes way down hill from here. Du was one of my favorite characters, I can't believe they killed him off.

[willy cheesesteak]

^In the graphic novel Carl killed Shane before he even turned into a zombie pretty early on in the story.

[Layne]

so was shane a "living zombie" or something? how the fuck did he turn that dude they kidnapped into a zombie just by breaking his neck? maybe i'm missing something, but i was confused as shit on sunday night.

on a different note... i'm really not sure what to think of awake. initially, i had high hopes for the show. i wouldn't call it boring, but it's definitely lacking something. we're only 2 episodes in, so maybe it'll pick up.

[DaBestSpoona]

Carl be murking ppl left and right in the comics.

Also pretty hard to break someone's neck and kill them IRL, thats some 80s action movie bullshit.

[akuma no uta]

^^^ Shane's pretty jacked though.

I think I'm more stoked for game of thrones to return than the next walking dead episode. I'm really hoping the deviate from the books and have the wight walkers and the khaleesi come destroy everything. Fuck those dudes for killing Ned.

[Scais]

im pretty sure that in the tv show, shane didnt break the guys neck but instead the guy fell and broke his neck causing shane to come up with an excuse since he could no longer escape with him to this new group. As for coming back from the dead, everyone is infected and its not the bite that turns you, its the fever from the bite that kills you. Then you come back to life. Hence the name of the show, The walking dead, the zombies arent the walking dead, they are.

[Egbert- Joe]

No, Shane kills him. After his conversation with Lori his mindset becomes "How do I get rid of Rick and take over?".

[percy]

cant wait til next week to see the finale. ive never read any of the books or whatever, so is everyone infected already? are we going to look into how the whole thing started?

also looking forward to southland finale next week too!

yep -- read that earlier and came to post it.

definitely sucks cuz the show had a great cast and tons of potential. I still never understood what the fuck was going on though.

Should I start on game of thrones? Don't want to end up burning my weekends in front of the TV.

You could easily watch it in one day.

[Wilbur]

Almost... Sunday...

[Epiphany]

Been on a mad cop show frenzy.

Caught up on Southlands and starting on season 2 of the shield right now. Overall I think Shield > Southland. There's more cohesion in shield and I like the story arcs a lot more although Southlands does the beat cops right.

[conqueror]

i love southland but the shield is infinitely better.

[Layne]

Honestly, I hate the walking dead but can't stop watching it. The main characters are awful, and I feel like the plot is mediocre at best... yeah it's gotten "better" but it's still shitty.

I wish Daryl and his redneck brother would start a spinoff series. I really just wanna see dude's riding on horses and shooting zombies with their crossbows. And where the fuck did that black guy and his son go from the very first episode... I felt like they should've been important.

Everything about the show pisses me off. I'm so ready for it to be over... I'm just too pathetic and bored to stop watching it.

[willy cheesesteak]

Michonne!

^^^^ I'm trying to stay strong and not read the comics or wiki and just be patient and watch the show.
