Wouldn't hurt to have 2 or 3 to watch probably to make a call. I have it on DVR the series, but coming off the first ep, the jury is still out whether I stay with it for the long haul.

I always do that with a new show anyway. Not really fair to judge anything off just one epp. I try to go at least 3 eps in before throwing in the towel...

Yeah, this show has about 1 more episode to start explaining the weirdness, or it's pretty much done for me. I felt like I have been watching one continuous pilot between two episodes.

Tried to watch first 2 episodes, couldn't get all the way through either one. Done. Wonder what the ratings are?

So far this show is well below HBO's normal standards. Honestly, the whole premise seems flawed to me.

I thought it was quality right out of the box. I would say that part of the reason, aside obviously from the leads, that people are saying "it's not true detective" is because it's not something as simple (in a genre sense) as a police procedural. It's going to be a more challenging show to watch, in every sense of the word. It would not surprise me a bit if by the end of the season I end up liking it as much or more than TD, and I think it's something I'm likely more prone to re-watch in the short term, because I get the sense that (unlike the ultimately straight-forward TD) there are layers that I might not catch on first viewing.

It's not a show that's going to fall right away into anybody's comfort zone, though. And while I enjoyed it, it was a very slow burn.

I like it. I'm not totally sure what I'm watching yet, but it is summer and there isn't much else on, so it gets a longer chance to make me love it!

The three years is interesting, as I think there should be more reactionary response to that many people disappearing, but I guess that gets into the place where people just can't fathom the actual numbers, like in this episode, and after a bit of time, it starts to become fun facts more than actual impact (the entire cast of a long dead tv show all disappearing for instance.)

Looking forward to more. I like Justin Theroux and Scott Glenn, but I hate Amy Brenneman so I will have to like it alot to stay with a show that has her as a central character.

They just added a lot more mystery and WTF is going on here moments. Consider the dude's track record with Lost, I'm not in on this yet.

I love Dustin and the warming glow, but every once and a while he just makes shit up to fit his theories. Walking Dead had one of the strongest pilots ever, and I would never classify GOT as "needing to find its feet."

We are now in a TV landscape where it is easier than ever to just marathon a TV Show after the fact. No need to stress on "is this worth my time?"

Walking Dead was lucky to survive the first half of season 2. Show just ground to a halt on the farm. Not much wrong with season 1 though.

to each their own. quick question, did you watch it week to week? I have a theory that season 2 is much better when binged.

yourmoviesucks pretty much sums up every reason why I think the Walking Dead is a mediocre shell of what it could have been.



TL;DR: AMC handicapped the show to be as profitable as possible, while uncreative as possible.
