S01.E01: Pilot - Pre-Air Speculation and Live Chat

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Why you up in there at night Travis?

[SimoneS]

I think there's going to be a lot of that condescending "Oh, the authorities would TELL us" in this show.  I want every one of those people to bump into a walker immediately.

 

Except unless you are a conspiracy anti-government nutjob that is exactly what most reasonable people would think.

[Morrigan2575]

Damnit, shock value is totally watered down after 5 seasons of Walkers

[tennisgurl]

Yes, wander right into the crack house/creepy abandoned church where people are supposedly eating flesh. At night. Only good can come of this! 

[raven]

Wow Travis is DETERMINED.  Ick, there's a disease waiting to happen.

[toodywoody]

Omg, really? Hasn't this guy watched any horror movies. You never go into anywhere at night. I was about to pee my pants waiting for Gloria to appear

[raven]

Wow that's some hardcore promotion.  A Mercedes Benz?  I'd rather have a Land Rover.

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Gloria and her new walkers friends are out increasing the undead army.

[Straycat80]

Old guy is starting to make zombie noises.

[SnoGirl]

Wash your hands!!

I'm disappointed there has not been a Walker spotting yet.

So Gloria(?) ate all the bodies? Wouldn't she be like the Walker that ate Lori and too full to move and still be on-scene?

[toodywoody]

Yes I keep expecting old dude to come try to take a bite out of whatever his name is

[ottoDbusdriver]

The mom reminds me of Elisabeth Shue.

 

Her talking style and mannerisms remind me of Neve Campbell.

[tennisgurl]

I am going to need a walker sighting pretty soon. 

[maystone]

OK, that was nerve wracking. I'm already yelling at the TV. "Don't do that! THAT! Stop doing that!" I figure that all the undead'uns have shuffled off into the LA night. Lucky for Travis.

[tennisgurl]

Ok, I really felt like they were going to start making out for a second there. That was the most terrifying part of this whole episode. 

 

They are brother/sister right? Not steps or anything? 

[Saje]

I thought she was gonna smack him.

[SnoGirl]

Brother/sister.

Man. I want this show to do well because I want more Walker stories, and ones I can't spoil myself silly by looking through the comics.

Give me Old Man Walker! Give me any Walker!

[wait.what]

The old guy behind the curtain is super sketchy.

[candall]

Except unless you are a conspiracy anti-government nutjob that is exactly what most reasonable people would think.

I lost faith in "the authorities" telling the truth so, so long ago.

[MrsRafaelBarba]

So when you going to work Travis?

[raven]

 

So when you going to work Travis?

I was wondering this myself!

 

Blah blah young love at least one of you is doomed.

[SimoneS]

The old dude is dying or reanimating, either way it is not good.

 

Go, Nick! Get the hell out of there.

Edited August 24, 2015 by SimoneS

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Old dude done crossed over.

[tennisgurl]

Very subtle show, very very subtle. "We shall ALL need to be building fires soon! Because of zombies! Get it?!?!"

 

Old Man Zombie!!!!!

[SnoGirl]

That was creepy. The classrooms are bugged? Wth?

Come on old guy. Walker! Walker! Walker!

[raven]

Yup, get the hell out of dodge Nick.

[wait.what]

ooooohhhhhhhhhhh, I thought it was Principal Zombie.

[Morrigan2575]

Old dude be a Walker now.

Getting really tired of all these Walker fakeouts

Edited August 24, 2015 by Morrigan2575

[raven]

Damn that was a letdown!!

[tennisgurl]

Wait, why are the classrooms bugged? This place was creepy even before Walkers showed up. 

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Nick is like NOPE and Goodbye!

[ToniG]

"Too much we don't know!"

And the old guy wasn't isolated? Just in a regular room? Gah.

[raven]

Is he standing in the middle of the road AGAIN??

[SnoGirl]

Wait. What was with that old lady and someone resting on her lap? What was up with that? It was so FAST I couldn't even tell what it was.

[SimoneS]

Wait. What was with that old lady and someone resting on her lap? What was up with that? It was so FAST I couldn't even tell what it was.

 

It just looked like a guy resting his head on his mother or elderly relative's bed.

[raven]

I saw that too - someone with their head on her lap, looking bloody.  At least we're going back to Zombie Church next.

[Guest]

I hope this is like the Walking Dead and they widen the cast of characters after the pilot.  So far its very 9021 0h no, Zombies. 

[Morrigan2575]

It just looked like a guy resting his head on his mother or elderly relative's bed.

I rewound it, did his mouth look purple? I thought maybe he was sick or a walker in the making

[SimoneS]

I did not notice that, but it was so quick.

[candall]

Wait. What was with that old lady and someone resting on her lap? What was up with that? It was so FAST I couldn't even tell what it was.

I think that was supposed to be a little mini "Zombie sighting?!?" fakeout.  It was just the hospital patient's visitor sleeping with his head on the edge of the bed.

[ottoDbusdriver]

At least we're going back to Zombie Church next.

 

As long as zombies don't go on television and solicit money.  Praise be. </LastWeekTonightwithJohnOliver>

[raven]

There's one, there's one!! Already promo'd but what the heck.

 

Couldn't just get up and walk away - non-zombie knowing humor!

[tennisgurl]

Its going to take like the entire season for Maggie to admit their are walkers running around, isn't it? 

[wait.what]

I thought we were going to learn the origins? I thought there would be more with scientists in labs or doctors with patients making discoveries? These people are just as clueless as we are.

[tennisgurl]

Unless something like, say, THE WALKING DEEEAD!!!! should happen!

[Morrigan2575]

I thought we were going to learn the origins? I thought there would be more with scientists in labs or doctors with patients making discoveries? These people are just as clueless as we are.

Only reason I watched was because I thought we'd get answers.

This is really boring and the dialogue is cheesy

[tennisgurl]

What Walking Dead does so very well...family issues and bratty kids! All we need to do is throw in a bunch of useless people, gender issues, and a boring love triangle, and we have Walking Dead season 1 all over again. 

[wait.what]

Was that a zombie in the park?

[SnoGirl]

Missing child poster, that was the second time we've seen that playground. I'm going to rewind during the next break to see if we were shown the boy going missing when they drove by the first time.

Hahaha, dead bodies don't just get up and walk away?! Or do they?!

It's a shame there's no Talking Fear. Hardwick would have repeated that line for sure.

[SimoneS]

I cannot believe that she sat on that disgusting junkie bed.
