MEA CULPA! I meant VUDU (though I have heard that HULU will be the exclusive AMC distributor coming soon).skimom2
\I won't see it until tomorrow (comes on HULU at midnight tonight, and school starts tomorrow)! I'm cautiously optimistic
Thanks for the heads up. I didn't know it would be available on Hulu.

OK.
the scene on the highway ramp, which various characters watch on the Internet...why does NO ONE say "bath salts"?
We have had previous discussions about how something can pull you out of the show, because it is unrealistic (in a show about zombies, lol). Well...that moment pulled me out of the show.
Ha! I understand. My big you-have-to-be-kidding, SMH moment
When the nurse untied one of young Johnny Depp teen restraints. Young man was bought in when he tried to commit suicide by running into traffic (that's what they thought) being hit. He has heroin in his system and Psych has been called to evaluate him. And she undoes one restraint? Umm...NO. You undo one hand and...they will use that hand to undo the other restraint. And get away. Like he did.
Guess I should have googled him first, didn't remember him from the HP movies. Thanks.Ah, but it wasn't. He got his start in the Harry Potter movies. He played young Tom Riddle in the Half Blood Prince.
And he attended the Royal Academy of dramatic art for three years.
This Frank Dillane is no flash in the pan.
Nope, didn't recognize him...You don't recognize him do you?
he played Tomhe who should not be named
I didn't get a sexual vibe from the brother and sister, though. I have seen sibs that are very close after trauma (hinted at, I think by the mom's comment that "It runs in the blood" or something like that).
Two major idiotic moments: 1) when the mom's boyfriend sees all the blood everywhere and does NOT call the cops. WHUT? 2) the 'untie one hand' bit was mucho stupid. First, for a call that would require a hand, the nurse would not bring a bedpan. She'd bring the ...whatever it's called. The weenie tank (lol). AND she'd just hold it. Seriously. Plus, did the mom and BF totally miss that the kid said he's been buying his junk from the Calvin kid? Dumb, dumb, dumb
I thought the "runs in the blood" referred to addiction. I'd have to rewatch to see.
I kinda liked the mom the least, even though I've seen and liked her in other things.Meh. The acting was pretty bad all around, but the mom was passable most of the time. Maybe it will get better as it goes along. Not loving the cut-rate Trent Reznor-impression music, either.

I kinda of thought at first he was doing a cameo appearanceI kinda liked the mom the least, even though I've seen and liked her in other things.
And, yeah. They didshuttle the old guy downstairs in a hurry, didn't they?
...Am I the only one that thought the doctor resembled the red-headed Mythbuster?
I kind of got the idea that the nurseuntied Nick's hand because maybe she thought that something was up with the old guy, too, and undid him so he wouldn't be trapped and helpless. She heard the same creepy breathing noises we did. That's the vibe I got, rewatching it. That she was giving him a chance to split if he had to. I mean, she left him untied not once, but twice.
I hear Carol is opening a day care center this season on TWD. She does have a way with children.
Or the Lizzie treatment.If the children misbehave there is always the tree tie up threat.

I have to wonder about the premise. Will the show be about the early states of the zombie apocalypse itself or a soap opera dealing with a different characters dull history and persona each week? And can this show really move beyond the early stages of the zombie apocalypse regarding the how, what and why it happened? Because if it did move beyond the onslaught, won’t it just then be The Walking Dead: Los Angeles?
