luineul Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 that's about 6 or 7 hours, 75 minutes of which are good, while the others are loaded to the brim with awful dialogue, incredibly lame drama, and extremely unlikable characters if you don't have an interest in zombie-related anything, then the show isn't worth watchinig at all. it's entirely unremarkable in virtually every way, except for the whole zombie aspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Nolan Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Ahhh that makes sense. I thought about that when he was taking their blood samples... I even mentioned it to my husband... I bet your coworker is right. It makes for suspense in the new season because she won't know who the father is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Well, that's coming from one person. I would disagree on all those points, but whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luineul Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 thin/lame/inconsistent plot devices entirely shallow, unlikable characters cliches galore lame one-liners it's a show for people who don't apprciate what tv can be, but want to see zombies munch on some flesh and see some explosions and fast cars between sex scenes and sex drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Actually, I see merit in a lot of characters, and I haven't really noticed anything else you mentioned. lol. Pretty much everything is a cliche now anyways, that can't be helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luineul Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Yeah... like who? Who has merit? Half the characters aren't even developed, beyond the main 3 or 4. They just have a scattering of lines here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron_Gland Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 The meat coat scene was probably the only scene I didn't like in the first season. And the slightly disappointing finale. Other than that the show was great, very Lost-like, which was another show I loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Rick, for obvious reasons, has merit. Many characters (Dale, Andrea, Shane, Lori black guy, Glenn - excuse me for not being able to recall all of their names at the moment) show compassion for one another. Daryl has shown he can be cooperative, despite that being very difficult for him. Anyways, I don't feel like describing every character in detail, but there's definitely more that can be said about them. Rick, Dale, Shane, Andrea, and Lori have all been developed to some extent. There's only so much development that can happen when things are going on. It's a good thing many of them have their faults anyways, it's not a video game where everyone just kicks butt. Their issues demonstrate that they're human, which helps us relate to them, because obviously we're not in danger of being eaten by zombies. Well, if I remember the scene correctly, the others were helping to smother the Glenn and Rick in the guts. I didn't really notice exaggerated crunching/splattering noises, or any forced exclamations. It pretty much worked. It stopped being effective when the rain came down, so yes, I think we were supposed to assume the rain was washing the rotten smell of the corpse off.

G.K. Chesterton Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 People have criticized and crucified The Killing but I think The Walking Dead ended much worse, especially the finale. I hope they pick things up this season and I'm interested in seeing what they'll accomplish given that they have 13 episodes. But I'm way more excited about Hell On Wheels.

Offensive Threat Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I obviously don't know how to use the search option properly. Just tried typing in "The Walking Dead" again and that thread you posted a link to does not show up in my search. Anyway, whatever...Just wanted to bring it to everyone's attention that the premier for Ssn 2 starts tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
