Someone has set a recorder for this. So just hsd a quick look.

Seems good, if a bit grim in places.

Would It be worth going back to the begining? Or would a explanation of wtf is going be enough?

I love it and would say start from the beginning as so much has happened and you can see how people have changed and more dynamics of relationships etc. It is very gory but also exciting,gripping and moving. I love it!

I was surprised I enjoyed it so much. I don't do gore.

I've watched from the beginning and loved it, but it's getting a bit relentlessly grim and violent now I'm mid series 3. The last episode literally gave me a nightmare!

Walking dead is brilliant, need to watch it from the start as the story so far is quite complex!

I have been thinking the same thing but 28 Days Later played on my mind for ages so will this be a step too far? (Plus I suspect that Zombieland has ruined the whole genre for me, Tallahassee is the perfect man Grin)

One of the men i work with watches and he has been giving me some info.

Not so much that it will spoil it but enough to make me want to watch.

I was planning on starting under the dome tonight so not sure if I will catch up anytime soon but I will give it a go.

I would watch them all , its a great show and you can really see the journey of how they started out and how it's changed them, the characters have really developed as the times gone on, but I'm a huge fan so maybe I'm biasedGrin

Isegirl Really?! I cant look past his 'charming' character!

Off to google pics of Daryl.

Maybe his character improves in the seasons I havent seen yet?

I really like it. It is very gory though!

Definitely!
It's the only TV series I watch 'religiously'.

Season 1&2 are excellent. I'm finding season 3 unnecessarily gory though. It is almost putting me off watching and I'm not usually that bothered by gore.

VerySmallSqueak · 21/08/2013 16:46

Ha! Cheddars I haven't noticed any extra gore - what I have noticed is that the storyline is diversifying more,and I worry that I may end up with too much complicated storyline and not enough zombie flesh ripping scenes.....!

I've been noticing extra gore in series 3. Maybe I'm just not as captivated as I was during series 1 and 2 though, so less distracted by storyline. That's not to say it's not still excellent!

Mmmm Daryl. Is it wrong that I also fancy Shane?

Yes to Darryl no to Shane.

Great show. Watch it.

Really good. Thought S2 'dipped' a little, but S3 got back to gripping.

I've managed to get s1 and 2 off someone in work so shall be starting from the beginning soon.

Might wait until under the dome has finished so I can concentrate a bit more.

Watch it. It is great. Seasons 1 & 2 were on BT Vision watched them in one go as I was so gripped.
