Set your Tivos and other lesser DVRs now. Seriously. Right fucking now. Cancel all of your other plans on Halloween. Watch this. make sure all of your your friends are watching it too. Do not let this show get taken out like Firefly did.

That looks awsome, now I need to make sure I find a way to record it and watch it.

This is based on a very popular comic book series.
Also, AMC has yet to cancel a show. At all. Period. ZERO.
Plus, this looks totally awesome.

“the video can not be viewed form your current country”

I was disappointed that he woke up in the hospital, somehow untouched, just like Jim in 28 Days Later.
Also, a thought: there should be a zombie movie about how the zombies spread and how society copes or crumbles under their weight. Diary of the Dead occured in that timeframe, but didn’t dwell on that topic at all.

So the Brits invaded Atlanta? (Chieftain tank visible in the background) I just wish that we got AMC in high def. Once you’re spoiled it’s distracting to watch in SD.

To bad it is on a Sunday night. If it wasn’t, we could have a watching part.
August 25th, 2010 at 8:38 am
It’s about damn time they made a good tv series about zombies.
August 25th, 2010 at 1:28 pm
World War Z (its a book) talks about that and i think they are *trying* to make it into a movie
August 25th, 2010 at 2:19 pm
Thank goodness I just upgraded to digital cable, that includes AMC!
August 25th, 2010 at 4:58 pm
Oh. Hell. Yes! I heard about this over a year ago and have been waiting for it! Fingers crossed they DON’T do a “Firefly” to it.
Can’t wait!
August 25th, 2010 at 11:48 pm
I’ve actually been meaning to pick up that comic forever. Man, I hope the show will be available online!
August 26th, 2010 at 8:38 pm
I love how it’s this hardcore, zombie death killing THING…and then the cheerful music comes on!
XD
This thing looks great, I’m gonna look and see if we have AMC on our TV.
P.S. xkcd-the webcomic-did a strip about zombies. I really think someone should make it into a movie.

Lennie James is in the first episode, at least, so it is awesome just by association.
If you want to know how the zombie virus got started, The Oatmeal sums it up wonderfully:

The novels are awesome! And the ‘teaser’ looks to follow the story ‘dead-on’!

I think this will work a little better for your overseas readership.

They coulda maybe been in the US for some joint-ops training stuff.
Or yeah, the Redcoats invaded the US, and sent ahead blankets soaked in 245-Trioxin. That would also actually be awesome for a plot.

Was anybody else watching the zombies swarm all over the tank and hoping we’d hear that big engine come to life?
August 31st, 2010 at 3:56 pm
That was AWESOME!!! I think I’ll call in sick to work so I can watch.

The hospital start is a staple of the cosy-catastrophe genre. Day of the Triffids for example.

Or, for a video game example, System Shock. Though in that case, you never even get out of your medical suite before being attacked by the baddies.
