    basketball :?:

    i guess i should've been more specific. I mean on sundays. Hell on Wheels is okay. I had higher expectations, its moving kinda slow but hopefully it gets better. I really don't like common in it. Basketball can fill the void though, at least college, i don't really care about the NBA until the playoffs

    I was about to say Football. But then I saw you live in the Twin Cities, and realized you probably shouldn't.

    what prison?

    It's from the graphic novels.


    Take it easy with the spoilers. Not everyone on this thread has read the novels...

    I haven't read them either, I've just seen stuff about it in Walking Dead discussions. I don't think it's really a spoiler, they've talked about it on Talking Dead. It's only a spoiler if you thought the rest of the series would take place on Herschel's farm and they would never go anywhere else. Besides, anything said about the comic books might not be a spoiler as they go off them quite a bit. Sophia for instance is still alive (and not a zombie) long after the events on the farm.

    It's probably much cheaper for them to film in one location like the farm, than to have to shut down major highways. But I've been fascinated when they show those glimpses of the rest of the world, like when Shane and Andrea were in the suburban neighborhood, and when the group was out on the highway.

    It must be such a blast working for that show and setting up those surroundings.

    I don't know how the comics go, but I'm thinking every season will have a new setting. Maybe season 3 will just be about them hitting the roads and small towns? If season 4, maybe them finding a city back in control of the living with the dead surrounding?

    If it lasts long enough, I'd like to see it take a Mad Max route where the surviving humans battle for resources and the zombies are just another everyday obsticle. I think the story could go anywhere.


    Maybe as the disease progresses the zombies could become smarter?
  • in 28 Days Later, the big obstacle was surviving until the zombies starved. Now, I didn't think in Walking Dead that the walkers needed to eat, but then Maggie was feeding the Barn Zombies livestock. What was the purpose of that? Was it because Hershel didn't know if his Zombie family would survive without their daily bread?

    In Walking Dead the zombies don't need to eat to survive. As for the livestock thing, Herschel and his people were under the impression they were sick people, and I guess they thought they probably still needed to eat.

    so.....

    if the barn was so secure, why did they keep getting out? the kid said "it happened again"

    and when they did exscape, why didn't they sniff out the people vs. getting stuck in the bog?

    I don't think they escaped from the barn. I think the "it" that happened was a couple of zombies getting stuck in the creek.

    From the graphic novels. If you dig the show, you've gotta check them out. The whole crew ends up at a prison and they camp there for a while. It's where some really wicked shit goes down and where they're introduced to some really sadistic fuckers. It's about the time where the readers go, "Wow, nobody's safe at all!"

    the TV show is already pretty damn different from the graphic novels. I've read them (twice actually) and the TV show continues to surprise me. Hell... they might never end up at a prison on the show. It's taken some majorly different turns from its source material.
