Trailer for The Walking Dead Season 2

[Toastburner B]

You can watch it here (http://www.tvfanatic.com/videos/the-walking-dead-season-2-preview/). Be warned that it does have Season 1 spoilers in it.

So I got to say that I am looking forward to it. While the series did get weaker as it went along it was still pretty good, and I daresay that the first episode of the series was probably the best thing on TV last year.

Anyone else looking forward to Season 2?

Never read the comics (but want to), and I heard it deviated from them when they only had 6 to begin with.

I hope they manage to stick closer to the material. At the very least, they seemed to have tried to emphasize the relationships as the driving force of the season and that is a good sign.

Hmm...not sure what this'll mean in the long run. (http://www.deadline.com/2011/07/walking-dead-shocker-frank-darabont-steps-down-as-showrunner/)

On the one hand, the pilot (which was pretty much all Darabont) was clearly the best part of it...BUT he also had his hand in a bunch of other clunkier episodes (and those were more likely to be the norm). Plus, not really sure what kind of showrunner he was (e.g. a rewrite every script type, or the kind who just lets the writer's room handle everything) so we'll see what this means for consistency of tone and such.

The show deviated lots from the comic, but I still liked it. Best zombie-related TV show I've ever seen. Looking forward to Season 2, trailer looked good.

They were probably like "Frank, you can't fire the entire writing staff every week!" so he quit.
