    Maybe it's a show about nothing.  (seinfeld reference)

    Probably the best, and funniest, scene from this season...

    Trapped in the People's Communist Republic of Massachusetts.

    This show is a bit nuts. It likes to kick its viewers in the face.

    Its title may be a double reference--the walkers, and the survivors who will soon be walkers.

    As an existential study, it asks several questions: what is humanity? What is decency? What would you do? How could you protect your loved ones and friends? How do we mourn list loved ones? What is civilization? Can man face anhillation and win, or will facing the monster turn him in to a monster?

    Or it just might be a show about whacking walkers, but I don't think so...
    "Whacking Walkers" is a much better title!

    Best series show ever on tv IMHO! If you start watching it start from day 1 otherwise you just won't get it and think it's some freaky zombie show.

    Some dude asked me if I watched The Walking Dead. I think my reply was "Naw, I'm not really into shows about zombies." 

    Then he actually says to me,...... "It's not really about zombies. The show is about the people,..... who aren't zombies."

    I googled it. Wish I hadn't. Hope it's wrong.

    Great show. I'd recommend it to anyone. You should start from the beginning though. 

    I wrote about this a week ago but for some reason it didn't post.
    I was talking about the show at work and co-worker asked about it. 65ish woman. She started watching it on my recommendation and became a huge fan. She has since retired but still comes in and we talk about the show. She was in the other day before the season finale and was so worried about who might not survive. She had  heard who was going to die in the comics. It was actually kind of funny.

    I'm not mocking the show. I'm mocking the dude's comment to me. I'm sure it's a good show. I just haven't seen it.

    That's like dangling an Opus X beyond my reach. Not right!

    There's a thousand articles with theories as to who it might have been. The show doesn't always follow the comic, but there is a lot of info about the comic out there. Use your google machine. I don't want to post any spoilers.

    Comic number 100 to be specific

    The show has itself a cult, I'll give it that. I'm stubbornly opposed for no valid reason other than sci-fi and what not isn't for me. 

    MIND BLOWING however is this thread! In 2011 Hulu was something some members were just hearing about.  Technology sure moves quick

    Just finished the last couple episodes of Fear The Walking Dead. The first season was a bit boring in an action sense but interesting in the sense of watching civilization crumble. The second season has been pretty good in my opinion.

    Yeah it's finally picking up

    The wife and I have been enjoying Gotham recently.

    Game of Thrones and Vikings are kinda similar, but GoT has way more twists and turns in the story lines.

    Barely turned on my satellite for a month since I got HBONow and there's already three new episodes of Fear the Walking Dead on my DVR!? Alrighty then. Didn't even know the new season started yet.

    October 23rd. It seems like this was a bit longer waiting on the new season to me.
