Started on CH5 tonight. Its been getting plenty of rave reviews and it sounded right up my street, so I made sure I caught it. Andrew Lincoln's American accent took a bit of getting used to, but its deffo drawn me in and I'm looking forward to episode 2....

Any fans?

I saw it on FX last year as well and I loved it.

I have been meaning to read the comics for ages now.

I think it was done well on the whole, rather too many coincidences to be totally believable but it worked episode to episode and I wasn't bored by it as I'd feared I'd be.

Loved it but it ended far too quickly! Could have done with a proper length series.

It will do as a nice stop-gap until World War Z hits the big screens in 2012... about to start shooting soon at Pinewood with Brad Pitt (!) in the lead role.

My turn to catch up with this now. It's starting on one of the Irish channels tonight, so I can SKY+ it :P

Couldn't record it when it was on Channel 5 as I only get it via the "Sky Other Channels" :(

Just have to change recording of Game of Thrones to the graveyard shift, and stop 'herself' from unplugging the Skybox :?

Ain't modern technology spiffing 8-)
