    I think zombie animals would take away from the plot/storyline too much.

    Like instead of a show about survival and the human mind during the end of the world, it'd be more like
    "attack of the zombie squirrel"

    also, if they cant budget in good firearms, how will they budget in zombie CGI?

    most android based tablets have them, but you've gotta pay. I'd assume you could 'borrow' them with something like limewire or torrent.

    *soap box* if you want to the show to continue maybe you should buy the comics so that they know there is interest and continue the story

    I'm borrowing mine from the local library, which some librarys you can borrow elec books as well

    I think it's more dramatic when it's hopeless, they can all turn at some point (everyone will die) and thusly the human population may never regain it's momentum, plus there is no cure. Utterly hopless, yet they still push on and try to live to the fullest. I think it's awesome.

    2.5" lift, ARE Shell, Ducks Unlimited Rubber Floor Mats. ROGUE badges,
    I finally got to watch it last night. The helicopter at the beginning over Atlanta was interesting.

    I've kind of been wondering through our the season. I know with that big of a meltdown we wouldn't have a "government" left per say. But I would think that higher up people would make it. I mean come on are zombies really going to be able to break in to Fort Knox? How about all of the underground bunkers and what not that I'm sure are in DC?

    I would think the military would be very capable of maintaining small highly guarded safe zones..

    I was hoping that's what the chopper eluded to.

    I also agree Lori is a bitch and Carl is a psychopath. That kid has serious issues.

    I can't wait til the next season. All the little twists they throw in the show that are not in the comics is what keeps me interested.

    I started the comics last night. They are pretty good and differ from the show a bit. I remember people were complaining about all the talking on the show, but the comics have quite a bit of talking themselves. I loaded them on my Kindle and will be reading them at lunch today. I can see myself finishing them in the next couple of days.

    I just downloaded all the comics for my iPad. Run through 3 or 4 in no time.


    My wife saw the s2 finale and got hooked, now she is marathoning through them, she already finished s1 and half of s2.
