Phil Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 In lieu of being such a fan of Breaking Bad, I figured other AMC programming would probably be a go considering the network that airs it, and I was right. AMC is like HBO in that respect. Only caught the first episode thus far, but I gotta say it's not nearly as bad as I thought it'd be (in terms of overt gore and bloodlust). The hardest scene to watch was when the horse died, but I really dig the overall theme and production of the show. Anyone else watching?

Phil Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Season 1 is only 6 episodes long. It's something you could likely catch up on in no time, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High and Wide Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I saw season one last year. It's definitely a show that I'm looking to watch again this fall. Sunday nights I've got Walking Dead, and Boardwalk Empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quick release Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 (edited) I watch it. And the first season was incredible. Be warned though... they're supposedly screwing up badly with season two. I mean they already aren't following the story of the comic book. Then they go and fire everyone. Then they cut the budget bigtime. People are pissed off about it... especially those who were fans of the comic book first. This season is 13 episodes. Hard to believe they pulled that off in a year without a writing staff and with a lowered budget. I'm eager to see how it turned out.

siddious Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 First season was great. Apparently production values are going to be much better in season two so I am very excited for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read about Darabont's departure from series. That sucks. Hopefully Glen Mazzara kept it together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphinity 2.0 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Was excited for season 2. But then I read quick release's post, and now I'm not so sure. A production like this needs a relatively large budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A production like this needs a relatively large budget. Not positive actually on the budget "cuts". I just know the main guy in charge left partly due to budget reasons. My friend was telling me they would have needed a large budget to successfully pull off one of the episodes. Something about a shit-ton of zombies.

That's the issue with sci-fi or shows of this ilk. It takes a large budget and a devoted crew to pull it off properly, but TV companies can't provide that forever. Especially ones like AMC.

-ERIK- Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 when does season 2 start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Oh well, I saw season 1 and was unimpressed. I don't even know what exactly killed it fore me, propably that is was just a standard zombie shocker like I've seen before. Only longer.

Fuhgeddaboudit Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I skipped over many comments in this thread, just wanted to make sure nothing spoiled it for me, but i heard this show was good and gave it a go. 1st episode was pretty good, does it get better from here for those of you who watch it?

Fuhgeddaboudit Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Watching the 3rd episode now of season 1, I want to finish before Sunday although I think this show and Dexter are at the same time, so Dexter is priority.

Fuhgeddaboudit Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Instant on netflix, I'll just watch a few here and there tonight and the rest of the days before Sunday. Sunday is football day so I doubt i'll be watching them on Sunday haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuhgeddaboudit Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Just finished Season 1 and I love it! It was so amazing and had an amazing soundtrack as well. Cannot wait for season 2. I wonder what that whisper was about!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
