So they decided to go away from the book. That can be interesting.
I guess everyone expected that surprise at the end. I mean, it would a bigger surprise is Bellamy actually didn't experienced that!

Good start to season 2. Loved Michelle Fairley being added to the cast. She was great on 24 this past summer.
I don't think it was too hard to figure out in the beginning that Marty died somehow. So that twist wasn't really that shocking. I'm curious to see who those people are and there reasons for wanting to recruit Marty.
at Mama Langston's talk to Fred. That was great.

I thought the premiere episode was ok. I did laugh the newspaper article that mentioned a zombie hoax. I hope they show what happened to The Returned who weren't claimed by loved ones in Arcadia. I remember that there others that escaped from the gym in the last seasons' finale. I also guess we will have to wait awhile to see what happened to the black family from last season.

Not really liking how this season is starting out. The Bellamy stuff is pretty lame. I hope it gets better.

I haven't watched the episode yet. We were going to, then read the description about Bellamy not remembering the last week and got turned off by what seemed to be a plot device reset of sorts. Let things develop at a relatively rapid pace in S1, then to start S2 undo some of the previous development.
That's a lot to conclude just from an episode description, and it may not even play out that way, but it did dampen our enthusiasm and lead to us watching other shows instead. We're still recording it, though.
