It is indeed, we'll probably watch it tonight. Unless we watch Boardwalk Empire instead as it's better.

I thoroughly enjoyed that first episode; they managed to bring us up to date with the current state of the group plus introduce some new characters and also set up an intriguing mystery that seems likely to drive the first part of the season and all without over-stuffing or under-serving any of it. There was a time part the way through one of the previous seasons that the slow pace of the thing was really starting to get on my tits, but between this and stuff like the fantastic Boardwalk Empire I'm really enjoying the slow-burn decompressed story telling these days. Well, either that or it was genuinely saggy in places before and they've just upped their game which is equally likely I suppose.

It's interesting also in the way it deviates from the comics. The broader strokes are there
ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
(Lori being dead but their daughter surviving, Herhshel's farm, the prison, Woodbury and the governor)
but the characters have been shuffled around and some subtle differences thrown in
ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
(the governor dies at the end of that plotline in the comics; the group leave the prison after the conflict with the governor; Hershel, Carol, Judith are dead by this point and Dale's still alive; Daryl's character doesn't even exist)
. It's good to see something recreated in another medium that doesn't slavishly hew to the source text but also doesn't needlessly throw any of the good stuff from the original out. I think they've got a good balance going.

It's been renewed for a fifth season, and there's also talk of a second TV show set in the same universe but with an entirely different cast which could be good.

I don't think we're going to be rid of the zombies for a while yet.

I'm pretty bored of the prison setting now. Hopefully the recent troubles and the reappearance of the 'big bad' will get them moving soon.

When he hit the dude with the golf club, I actually said, "WHAT THE FUCK?" out loud.

He is so good at making you forget how much of a psychopath he is. I was totally on his side by then.

Indeed. He's also quite the charming man. Can't really blame those people for siding with him.

I'm watching it on Fox but I'm reliably told that Sunday's torrentable episode is the best yet. I might have to skip ahead and DL it!

I take it that this worth watching then? I saw the first 15 minutes of Ep 1 and got bored rigid. I also don't like all the new people.

It'd be a real shame to watch three seasons and not watch this one. That first episode weren't that bad. It had a decent end if I recall correctly.

So if you like TWD you'll like this TWD.

This semi-season starts slowly, but the last 3 episodes are among the best ever in the show. It's really worth it.

And among the new people there's another The Wire actor, which is cool.

When you consider that Walking Dead is in the same universe as Days of Thunder and Rowdy Burns never fully recovered after the accident, but nobody told him of his un brain damaged former career as it might have upset him: it is both tragic and awesome.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
oh my god, the guy who plays the governor. In the space of two episodes, I went from hating him, to pitying him, to rooting for him, to distrusting him, to hating him all over again. So many scenes were so evocative, like the one where he stands, bathed in light, staring at his redemption while the zombies in the background claw through mud to try and reach him. Oh man.
The final scenes, at the prison, were just incredible. I hate mid season breaks.

Such a shame they had to kill him off, those episodes where Rick and his pack of dullards weren't in it were the best ones in the show's entire history.

Interested to see how The Big Bad is brought back in in episode 6.
