    The homeless aren't seen as much and they will grow in the cities until it explodes. Once it does , it will be outta control.
    Was it really 2 months that Rick was out in the TWD series opener? I thought it was only a few days. He wasn't shot in the head and he was on IVs. He'd have come around on his own long before 2 months.

    I don't believe he was in a medically induced coma so there's no way to predict when he'd come out of it.

    I'm loving the slow burn nature of this show.

    It's going to be nice to see the breakdown of society and the slow shift into the TWD type atmosphere, and they can take their time doing it too, it's not going to be so obnoxious montage or 28 days later rip off like TWD's intro.

    It was close to two months he was out. Shane stayed as long as he could with him when things started breaking down as it was shown. He even barricaded Rick's door. Some put the time table at 45 days . When he awoke he needed water as we saw.

    This season is 6 episodes. Plenty of time to build up this season for a cliff hanger.

    I think Season 2 (was announced it's a go recently) will be 15?

    Yeah its 15. Its why people were like ...15 ? I think the biggest fear is AMC doesn't wanna burn the audience out on this franchise. Its why they didn't give it a big 1st season and decided to do 15 next year.

    His IV and other fluids would have been depleted long before that but I'd have to go back and see if they mention a specific span of time.

    If you look the IV bag was empty. Rick's lips were dry and he was beggin for water. His legs also needed time for him to slowly get used to walking again. Due to the time passing , Shane and Lori thought he had passed. Because of them not able to take him and his coma.

    It was different, intense and suspenseful at some points but still a little dull in others. It took me a minute to figure out the relation ship between nick and the other guy. At first I assumed he was nick's father instead of step father. (turns out neither) They seemed too close. And who sends their boyfriend to look after their sick son in the hospital. Especially since he is a teacher and she is a councilor.

    I didn't plan on adding this show to my already bloated TV list, so haven't been following any of the news leading up to it. I ended up watching anyway, under the presumption that it would reveal the source/origin of the outbreak. By the end of the episode I realized that wasn't going to be the case, but am okay with that. It was really well done and I'm looking forward to seeing where they take these characters.

    She's obviously dated him a long while. To trust her children around him. Its not like she just met the guy. She has work as he does.

    That's what I hope it'll be, a family drama. But the characters in the show (it would be easy to run into an "expert" of something and have an exposition dump) doesn't mean it wouldn't be possible to try and explain the collapse of civilization in technical ways, if the writers wanted to. The writers can choose to do whatever, I just hope they don't go that route and keep things laser-focused ol these survivors. So far I'm cautiously optimistic.

    Honestly, I was a bit underwhelmed. I understand they are trying to set up the characters/story, but did they need a hour and a half to do that? I was hoping the zombie apocalypse would happen a bit quicker.

    How quick is quicker? It would be a pretty short lived series if they brought us right up to where TWD began in just the first episode...

    I didn't expect them to bring us up to TWD's beginning, but I was expecting more than a 3 zombies by the end.
