I thought I would start a thread so we can talk about things on the show without blowing for those who miss any episodes.

We did it for Lost, the Walking Dead deserves no less! lol

Good idea Medusa. You wear this mod thing well.

Zombies! What's their story, anyway? Why the current fascination? Little Blues just don't get it.

I know two werewolves, Equity and SAG members both, waiters now, but hungry for work.

With the whole decayed flesh and slowed movement, im sure they are cheaper labor.

Does anyone know how long Rick was in the coma?

I tried to pay attention and figure it out but I don't think it actually came out and said. I know he had a lot of beard stubble but not a full beard. And he was still hurting so it couldn't have been too long.

Yeah that is a question that I am not sure they will answer. I will have to go back and check and see if it specified in the comics. Can't really remember. It would have to be I would guess at least a couple weeks for everything to go completely to crap, but I think it would actually have to be longer. I figure the nurses and family were probably keeping him shaved and taken care of but then stopped when the dead came back, so the beard is more an indicator of the time between complete chaos and his waking, not the coma as a whole.

Some people were really bugged at the similarity between the start of The Walkind Dead and 28 Days Later, and it is VERY VERY similar but the similarities end there, after Rick wakes and gets out of the hospital there is no resemblence at all.

It doesn't really specify at the length. I think it was supposed to be about a month, but the tv show seemed to make it appear a little longer(with how the relationship looked between Lori and shane, unless the show is going to make that their relationship started before the coma, who knows?)

As for the 28 Days later comparison I guess both are references to an old horror movie. Some movie about the world going blind and plants attacking people, that apparently is now getting a remake. Go figure.

A remake of The Day of the Triffids? LOL Aw man, that would be great!

The BBC did a remake several months / a year ago.
It had the actor who was the baddie in Mission Impossible 2.
