Anybody Watching "The Walking Dead" On AMC?

The "Breaking Bad" thread was entertaining. I never saw a "Hell On Wheels" thread, but I was a little disappointed in the second season. I'm wondering if anybody is planning on watching the new season of "The Walking Dead?"

Absolutely! It is a great show.

I like the show but I have a sense that it is deteriorating into a video game-like body count...

It started off well, but now I'm not too sure about the momentum. Nevertheless, I still have to wait for Breaking Bad to start sometime next year, so yes I'll be watching the new season of The Walking Dead. The ending for the last season was quite epic however, so maybe I'm a bit excited for this new season.

The first show certainly was action-packed.

It is a great show.  Not a ton of suprises if you were familiar with the comic though it is a bit varied.  Plus last season I accidently stumbled on the spoiler for Shane's death that AMC accidentially posted on their website.  Still a great show.  Look forward to seeing how the dynamic changes now that they are in the prison.

The second season ruined it for the series.

Did you watch the 2nd season? If you're a fan of the comic, the 2nd season just pisses you off. Plus, they did some dumb crap

like waste multiple episodes looking for Sophia. You could just tell the first part of the series was off. Granted, they did try to makeup for it

with the second half. But still, IMO, the series as a whole suffered.

 

It's like those great series who have awesome first seasons Dexter comes to mind. But then, you have sophomore slumps, etc.

TWD Season 2 was worse than just having too much expectations from the first season.

 

But perhaps my extreme dislike is from being a avid comic fan.

Well there was a definite slump in season 2 and I agree that there was too much search for Sophia.  Overall I think they used those episodes to put into play more character development. 

 

I am interested to see how season 3 goes.

I do think that the general audience most likely enjoyed season 2 more than fans familiar with the story.

 

The prison is a very exciting part of the comic book, I really hope they don't go off track too much there as well.
