I have it in HD. Dish.

And I have the cheapest HD package.

Anyway, I was disappointed in the show last night
- it was fricking slow
- too much character building IMHO, and what was up with the racist frick in there? Why would he have not shown his racist colors before the episode. And how the frick has he hung onto the meth?
- the zombies moved wayyyy too fast for my taste, and climbing the fence. WTF?
- Why the frick weren't the people using the fire axe beforehand? Why did hte sheriff guy break it out and not the others?

He was racist before but all of the guys were pussies and wouldn't stand up to him. Some of you get stuck on the weirdest shite to actually get aggravated with..

I was more upset w/ the zombies using rocks to break windows instead of the zombie climbing the fence. I've never seen a zombie actually use a device like that

I was thrown off at first... but then I remember the monkey on Life using two rocks to crack open a nut and I decided to give them a pass.

I guess these zombies don't play by the general rules

What if these zombies have the ability to learn?

I was annoyed that the deputy didn't drop that handy grenade into the throng trying to figure out how to climb the ladder and that they didn't use some of those vehicles to play "Plow the Streets". I wanted to see some major zombie carnage.

yes, but I figure that the grenade will come into play at another point.

yeah, why didn't he drive the tank either?

I wondered that as well. Then I started to think that driving a tank probably isn't as simple as driving a car.

I guess you won't tune in next week episode. I'll really miss your bitching about the story line.

Personally I like the fact that the Zombies can climb a fence and move at a fast pace. Hell using rocks to break the glass door was bad arse. I like that the zombies are not hollywood issue.

what was up with the racist frick in there

Survival makes strange bedfellows. Maybe he was best with a rifle. I was happy when he got left. I hope the zombies get him and turn him. Perhaps he will become a zombie leader and go after the other survivors camp. He would be a cool adversary.

I would never use a fire ax against zombies. Great chance that it will get stuck and then be useless. A bat would be more reliable.

Great show and story.

I agree. I think these zombies are more exciting than your traditional zombie.

I think most people have questions that they want answered, but I think they should also realize that we are only on the second episode. Answers will come.

I didn't find this episode slow myself. It seem like it ended to quick, but that could be because I stared the show late and zipped past most of the commercials.

they may have used a little extra character building for filler to break up this episode and the next at a point they thought would work best. Either way its better to have to much than not enough.

I figure they all came to Atlanta for the same reason but not together. They just ended up hiding in a similar place and became reliant on each other to some extent. You have to like Rowdy getting left behind, you know he will be back one as a zombie or vengeful white trash guy.

Now this is a big concern with me. When the Asian kid (I'll refer to him as Dong,) Dong rescued Sheriff Happy (or what ever he called himself in the downstairs of the store) they went down the alley and climbed up the fire escape, but the zombies just clamored at the bottom!!! So they can climb fences but not fire escapes? The one thing I demand in an apocalyptic film is consistency in my zombies!

quote:

Tank

I mentioned that during the show. I would have as least tried to start it and scavenged as much shite out of it as possible before running. Besides that I am pretty happy with the show and look forward to this week.
