Also the episode description contains spoilers. I mean, for most shows I would assume that everyone is going to survive but in this show I honestly don't want to know.

Been rewatching S1 with my wife and daughter, they haven't seen it before so it's fun to see their reactions to main characters being killed off. We have 3 episodes left.

All the good buzz about this in last season's TWD thread made me DVR the season 1 marathon on Monday. So far I've watched through ep5 and haven't been disappointed. A good laugh is guaranteed at least every 5 mins or so and i have a big stupid grin through the whole show. And i agree whoever is making this has an excellent grasp on the genre and I especially enjoy the blatant riffing on the glaring faults of TWD.

Looking forward to Friday.

Yeah this show somehow walks the line between being a parody and being just serious and good enough that you care about the characters and story. I don't know how they managed it but they did.

Best character is zombie jesus.

I like the scene in which he finds the crying family that wants to get their dad back and then he lets zombie dad into the safehouse.

New Episode

The Murphy

In the Season 2 premiere, moments have passed since Murphy triggered the launch of tactical nuclear weapons and it's every man/woman for themselves as the group split up and try to outrun the impending blast. Meanwhile, Citizen Z finds himself battling thawed zombies and unable to communicate with the team, which leads him to make a desperate move that prompts the arrival of a mysterious and deadly bounty hunter.


Spoilers up in this synopses.

Wow you weren't kidding. It was almost complete farcical mockery and then BOOM Garnett dies and gets mercied and the show takes on a new voice.

Impressive how quickly it shifted to this:

Yes! Surprised how much I ended up enjoying this show - originally tuned in to see how bad/corny it would be and it turned awesome. Only misstep was the weird recurring dream episode but even that wasn't too bad.

Can't wait to see Murphy's beautiful new face.

e: I mean, this show had a zombie Mountie.

I was briefly worried that they were patching things up too nicely but it's clear that it will be a while before they return to the cute zombie-slaying couple we remember from the first season

Grouping up makes sense overall and it doesn't seem like they're wasting time getting the band back together. Hoping there will be some lingering distance though (for drama).
