New series "The Walking Dead" on AMC
Premiere tonight.

Checking it out....looks very "Silent Hill"-ish. Zombie and all that, but more dramatic, less campy. Got very good advance reviews, though.

You don't see many horror series on TV, and I have to trust the network that brings us Breaking Bad.

So far, so good.

Looks like they're running it a few times back to back on premiere night.

I'll probably see it twice, now and when the wife watches On Demand. She's at work right now.

Liking it so far.

I have spent many hours thinking what I would do in the case of a zombie infection. Best thing I can think of is I live 100 yards from lake Michigan and would just take a boat out there

I also read somewhere that when Vampires are popular, the economy is shitty. When Zombies are popular, the economy is strong. GO ZOMBIES!!!! Vampires suck (ha.. see what I did there... hehehe).

Somebody's been reading the Wall Street Journal!

I believe Warren Buffet uses a vampire/zombie scale to guide his business decisions.



But, seriously, yes....very good show.
