Glad I noticed this series as I have been really enjoying it.

I love vampire stuff, its a bit like walking dead in a vampire world.

Watched series 1 packed into a week just in time for series 2.

So far so good!

Ruta Gedmintas gives me the horn too.

I would strongly advise you change your signature before a moderator sees it, as it's against the rules to advertise your business.

This show is crashing and burning faster than Under The Dome did. The script is beynd stupid in season 2. Last nights episode intro was a nice 5 minute time waster.

Okay!

He can't even act hugging. I want Nora's grandmother back at this rate.

Arg that kid and his sideways, squinty grumpy face. Just die already.

Also, that dude who was security man at Stoneheart and came back to help the gang...he didn't last long or provide any real help? What was the point :S

who the hell orders take away during all that lol, and they deliver!

Very good episode 6 I thought. Those kids are creepy as hell, the son still needs killing off, and the ending was great!

God that was an awful episode. Really really beyond awful. So many incredibly pointless and/or stupid choices made by people.

I gave up about 5-6 episodes into season 1 - there was too much of that kind of stupid.

You absolutely made the right decision. I'm envious :|

I have a low tolerance for it - there was a moment in the cockpit early on that I knew I probably wouldn't be sticking with it :S shame as I like the concept on paper.

Try reading the books if you want experience something that makes you appreciate the tv series :eek:

Really didn't get why Gus was antagonising Angel so much about his former career, and why does he pronounce his name the Western way considering his background!

I can't believe they haven't thought of the most obvious, easy and most effective way to despatch the zompires. Silver shrapnel shotgun rounds!!

I think that'll just sting? they still need to be decapitated or a head shot.

They shot one with a standard shotgun and it went flying, so filling one up with shards of silver should be very effective.

I did enjoy how dr goodweather shaved off his head to tie in with his shaved headed appearance as the main baddie in antman, had no idea it was him till it was shaved off lol

I'm a bit late to the party and only watched the first 3 eps of season 1 and really enjoying it so far. As mentioned earlier, its got a fringe-esque feel to it.

You are late, goes down hill fast in season 2. To be fair it started to go bad at the end of season 1.

I like the flash backs in the past. On the other hand, how much more ham fisted could they be with Ep's drinking.

Jonny2284 · 25 Aug 2015 at 17:09

Well I admit I haven't seen the latest episode yet but until they've gone as low as drinking out of a bottle in a paper bag while sat in an doorway to shelter from the rain there's further to fall.
