The overall feel of the TV series has remained very faithful to that. <br /><br />I'd agree that the comics, although very meandering, did have more meaty character development and dialogue so the TV series still has some work to do. There were loads of full on fights and sex scenes in the comic which have been airbrushed out of the TV show. <br /><br />Anyway, Walking Dead is still one of my favourite shows. Maybe I'm just projecting my love of the comics onto it and seeing what I want to see. That's also why I have no problem with the iconic hat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623527747238657704.post-33326277678081552192011-12-06T16:48:35.117+00:002011-12-06T16:48:35.117+00:00In the start of season 2, the old dude is on top o...In the start of season 2, the old dude is on top of his Winnebago with binoculars, but somehow the party gets overrun by a pack of zombies ... in broad daylight. Instead of getting into a car and just running back and forth until the undead are just patches of protoplasm on the Interstate *they hide under the cars*. Then the kids run off. Even the characters in _Night of the Living Dead_(1968) were smarter than that.<br /><br /> --bksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623527747238657704.post-57526224607465839752011-12-06T15:59:26.488+00:002011-12-06T15:59:26.488+00:00Well blame the actors, media and the Holly Wood hy...Well blame the actors, media and the Holly Wood hype machine for this one. It is hardly the best show on on television and I have got to the point when ever I see in the media raving reviews or the actors "acting" like they are in some grand thespian like character development, I want to slap them up side the head. One has to also wonder about actors in general do they watch their own work? Or are they surrounded by so many people that suck them off because they are in a zombie show they live in "Another World" as the show should be called . The problem with this show is that the people involved actors, writers, producers, don't know what they are doing and have too much going on and are trying TOO hard to be the best show on basic cable. They are trying TOO hard to develop characters and the actors are trying TOO hard to be these characters because this show was over hyped . The should of put more thought into taking a comic book story line while not having to stick to that story and maybe have less writers at the writing table. Too many writers on board for this show and Frank Darabont should of been let go after the second season was completed. It is pretty clear his departure which no one will talk about or AMC will fire them, some one stepped in the cutting room and cut this show up. The last Pretty Much Dead was good but not enough to make up for the mistakes and over hype for this show of course will be curious to see if this show gets on the right track. It is too early for a show with this much hype behind it to have such issues I really don't see this show going past the third season I like the cast don't get me wrong but they either need their bubble popped or they need a pay check because most people anymore can't decide if this is a drama, a horror drama , a zombie show but about people with no zombies or just about people or, a tragic comedy on what NOT to do on a show. Think this shows biggest enemy right now are not the fans who are not happy, the hype that this show set for itself and now can't live up to. Good blog will keep up let us hope the rest of this season proves us wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
