    So let's abandon character development for 45 minutes of mindless gore and violence. I'll go watch a B-movie on Sci Fi for that.

    Basically, thats what people seem to want. Which is fine for a 1.5 hour movie, not so much for a 3 season cable television show.

    I like it, even with the drama. I dont like the Shane character, but he really is the only one making sense. The problem though, is that his will to survive has officially surpassed his humanity. He has basically become something unrepresentative of humanity itself and is therefore not worth saving.

    The blonde is becoming just like him, but I forsee her having some epiphany about it.

    Rick's kid doesnt bother me, he is just a kid.

    Rick's wife, total idiot and hopefully soon to be used as bait.

    The old man, nothing wrong with him really, but he steps over the line constantly as it pertains to group safety under some desperate sense of higher morality. A habitual linestepper.

    Asian kid is cool, to me. Not trying to save the world or hold onto the way things used to be (like ing Rick), but not sacrificing his sense of humanity just to survive, either. His hillbilly girlfriend is another matter, however.

    The billy-bob with the crossbow, he's cool. Just a slightly twisted version of the Asian kid.

    Old mother-hubbard ought to just off herself and get it over with. Just an extra mouth to feed and not one redeeming quality as a person besides continuing to be the broken human being she was before and after the zombie apocalypse.

    Big black guy...not very central to the story in any way. He was in the first season, but he is almost non-existent in the second. Thats weird because I like him as a character.

    Basically, I see the young Kid, Asian, Billy-bob, the Blonde and Black Guy as the future survivors while Rick, adulterous wife, Shayne, Mother Hubbard and Old Man are meat for the beast.

    "While these numbers were not as high as the 3.8 rating and the 7.2 million viewers that watched this premiere"

    So because it doesn't match the all time high for the series then the viewership has declined? That isn't the way it works. Viewership for the 2nd season certainly is not down as you tried to portray.

    People want to see a new 28 days later each week. Frankly, as much as I love that movie and I love the zombie action, that would be boring as after a couple a few weeks. The way they built up to that episode's pay off convinced me the writers are doing a damn good job. Very few times have I had a "OH NO THEY DIDN'T" look on my face watching TV.

    If I recall, the TV show is already well past the point in the comic where Carl kills Shane (not that it's necessarily following it in all other areas). I would not assume that will happen in the show. Shane seems to be a much more pivotal character here.

    I don't want to see 28 days later every week, but I couldn't get through the second season premiere so I just quit watching. I have too many shows on my plate as it is.

    I'm way behind this season. I've been dvr'ing every episode but I think I just finished the 5 episode of this season. Its the one episode, and forgive me for not knowing the names, with the cop that was banging the other cop's wife and that guy getting supplies for his kid. I knew I didn't like or trust that guy for a reason. I hope he meets a violent, ass gaping end. No racist.

    Don't worry too much. The show hasn't been following the comics directly.

    , Darryl doesn't even exist in the books.

    Nope. Wasn't able to make it very far into Walking Dead yet, either. They've all been added to a long list of recreational reading that's waiting for me to finish my thesis.

    That would seriously propel the show to awesome status. I was so happy when lil Otis fired a round into his chest...but then that nutjob vet had to save him.
