I LOVE the show. Did you see the mid-season opener the other night? I came back from wrapping the show and it was like midnight and I had to wake at 4am the next day. What better way to spend my time? I had to watch it. I was a zombie the next day and STILL am, but I am so glad I saw it.

Can't wait to read it! Looking forward to the show starting up again tomorrow!Kristin Shafel Omicciolihttp://mylittleheartmelodies.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6318555580612720798.post-69908299752153440402014-02-07T12:51:48.645-05:002014-02-07T12:51:48.645-05:00While I don't do zombies, you do bring up my f...While I don't do zombies, you do bring up my favorite part of dystopians. What the humans are willing to do is always fascinating to me too. That and how they manage to survive. What techniques and skills make them part of the "only the strong survive."Juju at Tales of Whimsy.comhttp://www.talesofwhimsy.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6318555580612720798.post-29394699519995188742014-02-07T11:35:41.404-05:002014-02-07T11:35:41.404-05:00I tried watching this once and just couldn't g...I tried watching this once and just couldn't get into it but my husband has been watching the series and thinks it's enjoyable.

I love how well the show has adapted the source material - both the similarities and plot changes. Can we just talk about that odd moment in the comic where Carol wants to marry both Rick and Lori? Also, Andrew Lincoln (Rick) read McCarthy's The Road before filming season four as a sort of reference and literary guide. I've only read the first compendium as well, but I've been immersed in the fandom so long that I have a general idea of where Kirkman takes the series. And let me just say, we're in for a very bumpy ride!! Glad to see someone else enjoying the show and seeing beyond zombies. One of these days I'm going to make my way down to where they film everything (it's only an hour away from my house). Total TWD dork and loving it.Brooke Leenoreply@blogger.com
