Re: The Walking Dead Episode One (Pre-air)
I think it is the fact that it has slowed down quite a bit. While the comics definitely focused on the characters, I don't think I can remember an issue that had as little action as this last episode. I mean, one zombie in the whole episode? Flashbacks don't count for me. Anyways, we'll see how it goes. Definitely is better to watch without the commercials. And, yes, I thought the bait scene was rather ridiculous. It actually goes against the message that the entire set of comic issues tried to portray. You do something stupid and you will almost always die. Anyways, I actually didn't mind the episode. I just kinda took that little scene as a TV thing. I just want them to move it up a bit.
Anyways, you'll be happy to know that the bait-a-roonie is NOT from the comics. Of course, in the comics, at least one of our survivors... didn't. Though, Otis did... The bullet wound wasn't near as bad. An action scene that hasn't occurred yet would have. And by now, or next week at the latest, we'd be on the road to the next adventure. Oh... almost forgot... no missing kid for all these episodes either....
