I have yet to see the trailer (stupid work filters) but after reading that it was filmed in 16MM and most of The Shield's backstage crew helped Darabont out...I nearly shit a brick.

There is no way to describe how excited I am. I really hope this catches on, it would be another great series on AMC (the other two are awesome and Rubicon is shaping up to be really good as well).

Yeah that's great news. Gwenyth Horder-Payton assistant direted numerous Shield episodes, and directed a few as well. She's up for directing at least one episode in the first season.

Loved the trailer. Can't wait

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Still waiting for AMC to post a cleaned up trailer. Has anyone actually seen a spot on TV yet?

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

man this just is looking better and better.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

I am so ready for this. I had always hoped HBO or Showtime would decide to do an epic zombie series. This is the next best thing (maybe better considering AMC will probably be able to do it cheaper, meaning it should last longer). I can only hope it does well so we can see more series of this type (real horror, not vampire romances or "monster of the week" shows).

damn it. competing with SNF. Oh well. Still appointment TV.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

damn it. since the previous version of this trailer was shit, you couldn't see much. i had been following the casting, but not which characters. something is spoiled in the trailer regarding casting.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

This is gonna be good

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Its not even minor spoiler.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

It seems like every network now wants to air their entire lineup on Sundays. I dont get it.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

sure it is. i have not followed the book/comic and only casually saw she was cast as a character. i'd say semi-revealing that in the trailer is a spoiler.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Oh my dear Jesus, that trailer is fucking AMAZING! If this show isn't a hit, then the American TV watching public are morons.

Halloween cannot get here fast enough!

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Hope this becomes a regular series on AMC, and not just a one-and-done miniseries. Looks totally awesome

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

If it's revealed in this trailer then it isn't important enough to be kept a secret. I realize that's not the case for all trailers, but in this instance with AMC and Darabont at the helm, I think we're in good hands with the trailer.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

hot damn....I want to have cable now. Time to get cable.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Looks great. Halloween can't come quick enough. :D

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

Luckily, DISH just added AMC HD, so I'm all set!

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

I'd say a second season is pretty much a lock.

Re: Holy Crap! Darabont to adapt 'The Walking Dead' for AMC
 

motherless fuck, when is DirecTV going to do this?!
