Never heard or seen the comics, but the again, I'm not really a comics guy.

anyone have any guesses as to how long he was lying in the hospital bed? it couldnt have been more than a few days without water could it? water isnt administered through the iv i think so he would be dehydrated fast?

NaCl 0,9% is water with 0,9% sodium chloride. Although a single bottle wouldn't last too long.

I usually have ways to express my disgust with things like this but i just coudlnt find the words so to avoid a mental breakdown i tried to keep it simple so i could distance myself from this traumatic experience. I also didn't want to succumb to its evil by ranting but i understand now that there is no beating around the bush. I am eventually going to have to release the frustation that this has sparked in me even though i will inevitably fail to accurately explain to you my feelings on this show.
Yes it is that bad.

It is actually so bad it made me depressed. From the awful makeup to the incomprehensibly retarded dialogue. From the cliche's that make you want to gouge your eyes out to the weird camera angles.
It's just such a fucking amateurish disaster that i'm fucking stumped.

As i am sinking deeper into the vortex that is now my damaged mind, my last request is that someone take up the struggle and succeed where i failed. Someone make them understand.
So they stay away.

You don't sound sane enough to be taken seriously. I guess I'll have to watch myself. But I'll wait for the premiere.

Relux quite obviously hasn't read any of the comics.
I'm waiting til it's released, but a friend who usually says most shows are shit, said this was awesome. Including the make-up being great (noteably the scene where the dead woman is decomposing and still alive/when he goes back to kill her).
Only bad point he says was the main actor doesn't fit, but only because he couldn't get over the fact he played a comedy role in a British show called Teachers a few years ago.

I've been waiting for this for absolutely ages, so I'm sure I'll love it. Horror genre TV series are few and far between and the few we do have were/are awful (here's looking at you Freddy's Nightmares),

Hey don't shoot the messenger.

Having a Zombie Apocalypse TV series is a must hence why I was intrigued it was being produced. I just finished the book, 'World War Z', and if you haven't read it, well, it make the other ones like Day By Day Armageddon seem incredibly minimalistic. I know a movie World War Z is coming out with Brad Pitt so that should be interesting although it would have to be a high 'R' rating due to the insane amount of gore needed to remotely come close to the book.

So I have high hopes for 'Walking Dead' although there isn't an Undead Zombie as nasty as the ones in 28days/weeks later. Granted they are "infected" and not dead but because they can run fast, and infect with their own contaminated liquids (ie. erupting fountains of blood) this makes close combat VERY dangerous as if that tainted material gets on you like an eye, mouth, ear, or open scab you are FUBARED! Method and delivery of contagion usually denotes the spread speed so just being scratched or bitten isn't as fast as projectile fluids. Chainsawing the Undead up close is VERY risky.

Anyway, love Undead/Zombie Apocalypse stuff.. makes ya think about civilization. So hoping this TV series is raw, somewhat realistically gory (not likely but), and shows the raw struggle to survive. No ZombieLand please -- gawd that was more FastFood Undead Apocalypse then the real hard deal (ie. power was still on during the movie.. yeahhhhhhh OK!).
