I love this show - just caught up with the mid-season finale of Season 4 and eagerly anticipating the new series on Fox in a couple of weeks!

No spoilers !

Oddly enough, we've just remembered to catch up with it too - part-way into season 3 atm, we got left behind! :O

It just gets better mate!

I love it, in fact it now pays a large part of my life. For example when I was in a Farm Shop the other day I spent a good few mins looking at the scythes and sledge hammers. My only intrest in them was sharpness, weight, and handle length, for the sole purpose of zombie disposal.

Wow I thought it was only me and my daughter that watched it!

It has got better with every season .Even the acting has improved.Or maybe its just that all the shit actors get eaten!

Some of the acting was so bad especially Ricks wife Lori, we even cheered when she died!  

Great show can't wait for the second half of Season 4.

Massive fan over here as well; another week or so until second half of Season 4! It's going to be quite difficult to discuss it on here without spoilers though if people are at different stages in it...

Hopefully they will catch up soon.

I was gutted (pardon the pun) that they didn't get Danny Trujo in to play the Governor, 'cos the comic book character looks exactly like him - David Morrisey does a sterling job though.

On (relatively rare)family outings to places of interest they get rated in terms of suitability for surviving a zombie apocalypse. If it happens we will be heading straight for Warwick castle.

+1 for David Morissey 

He was a bit too cartoon like when  he first arrived but really grew in to the role. He was especially good in the recent episode all about him. A chance for him to do some proper acting and drop the dodgy pirate impression.

Interesting how the two main leads weren't American

Another fan here. I was late getting into it and only started watching because my girlfriend said it was fantastic. (Although she loved it, she had to record it and watch it during the day: it scared the bejesus out of her at night!)

We bought the first 3 series boxset just before Xmas and have been ploughing through it fairly quickly. Getting near the end of series 3 now.

The acting's pretty good throughout I think although yeah Lori was really wooden and Merle is a bit cartoon redneck.

Anybody know when it's coming back on Channel 5?

I was asking the same thing in another thread. Seems it might be April or May but nothing definite confirmed yet. We can get it on Fox but would have to upgrade our virgin deal to the full package and it's going to cost a fortune to do that

Maybe I should give this another chance? I thought it got a bit 'meh' after S1.

Currently busy with Lilyhammer. Waiting for GOT.

Never watched it. This was fun though.

Ive been watching since the beginning.  Very good series and looking forward to the next episodes.

you don't want scythes, clearly the way to go is a samurai sword

Very few machetes and crowbars in The Walking Dead, it's like they haven't even read the Zombie Survival Guide
