Looking forward to it, last I watched the army had started hauling people away, I'll catch the next one on demand sometime soon, before sundays new show.
It started slow, but it didn't take long to heat up.
When I finally figured out who the dad was, I knew it'd be cool... Cliff Curtis really impressed me in Training Day, he was spooky. They might eventually do the same to him with this character, turn his current pacifist into a REAL hardass. [Reply]
Kind of sad they are making the military out to be such deplorable figures. Every military guy, especially that one hitting the golf balls, I hope get eaten to death by zombies. [Reply]

Finally caught this week's episode, the best one so far. They softened some of the military guys in this episode and the way they did lends credence to how society fell apart so quickly.
I've been this shows biggest critics but this episode was very well done. [Reply]

This.
The rich black guy in the suit was probably the most interesting part of the whole series. Not probably, WAS.
His character also made a point of saying the "wolves" would take over this new world. An obvious nod to where the next WD season is going.
--On a side note the wife asked me "what is it with you and black people all of a sudden? Why are you interested in all these black people? Do I need to know something?"
As she said it she was joking but it made me think: a lot of the characters I'm interested in are played by black actors/actresses. Morgan (played by a great actor,) Michone (same,) BMBS (short for Black Man in Black Suit) as well. He's fresh and has no nickname yet so I'm going with that.
Marvel/FOX/DISNEY/SONY need to watch these shows. This is how you introduce a black character. You write a great character and cast a great actor with range... [Reply]

Exactly.
They weren't written for a stereotypical character in mind. They are interesting, well acted, and just happen to be black.
