Anyone else notice that Darabont was credited under the pseudonym Ardeth Bey for writing the episode. They named him as exec. producer under his own name.
Perhaps for legal reasons after the firing?

he directed the first 6 episodes, so until episode 7 his name will be credited as director.

for those ofyou who like daryl dixon ,wikipedia says the makers recognised how popular daryls character had become and he has now been upgraded from recurring cast to main cast , so i doubt hell die anytime soon, which is good hes a very entertaining character
also wikipedia has a list of all the characters well meet at hershels farm in the next episode cant wait for next episode

i can remember all the names realy easily comic and show.

hardcore the walking dead fan right here:D

Just watched it and I really thought it was awful.

Was hoping for signs of improvement from S1.

What do we get , one good scene as herd goes by, then a predictable child goes missing and they look for her.

I find lots of the group to be unpleasant people and I think in that situation that people would be more co-operative.

Also the zombies, how come some are just walking and notice nothing and another is very inquisitive, like the one in the RV?

Autopsy....WTF? Just done for gore/shock value? Did they expect to find her head inside him?
Why were the zombies sitting in Church pews as if they were praying?

Why was one in a wedding dress?

The scene with the bloody deer. Why is it unsafe to shoot a zombie but apparently ok to shoot a deer?

Also deer don't just stand and look at you.....they're gone.

Two church scenes were ridiculous.

For the story to move along they group need to have some sort of plan which offers some hope. At the moment they are just drifting and stumbling from one crises to another with relationship problems inbetween.

Will stick with it but my patience is wearing thin and I'm afraid it'll turn me into the watching dead.

i think your a bit unfair in some points 1-re.''Was hoping for signs of improvement from S1.'' . well i thought it was a good episode, youd atleast have to say it was a big step up from the horrendous last episode!

point2-What do we get , one good scene as herd goes by, then a predictable child goes missing and they look for her. -- ye i sort of agree, but dont really see how its predictable, i thought it was quite clever how he had to leave her behind to go kill the zombies as he couldnt take them on on his own, then being a scared child who probably didnt take in anything rick was telling her as she was so scared getting lost was quite realistic also. and when the zombie attacked her under the car, she had nothing else to do but run down the embankment.

re 3-I find lots of the group to be unpleasant people and I think in that situation that people would be more co-operative.- whens it any different you hate some you like some, maybe not like so many in this case:p though i like nearly all the characters, and they will be develpoed mor ein this eason and youll like them more, maybe i like them more cus i read the comics and its coll seeing the comic characters in real life! yes i suppose its unrealistic that they dont cooperate more, but the uncooperation makes for problems and drama!

re 4- Also the zombies, how come some are just walking and notice nothing and another is very inquisitive, like the one in the RV?
-who cares, now thats just nit picking! maybe only one zombie saw the open door of the rv or it was the only one to smell andrea inside, come on you have to leave some room for unrealism in a show!

re5-Autopsy....WTF? Just done for gore/shock value? Did they expect to find her head inside him?
ye suppose your right it was sorta of stupid, the whole little girl was hardly going to spill out of its stomach like when you you cut open a shark and car reg plates and what not slide out i think that was mostly for gore and daryl character development.

re6-Why were the zombies sitting in Church pews as if they were praying?

Why was one in a wedding dress?
so what they were just sitting down, in earlier episodes in atlanta zombies were sitting in burnt out cars,same thing.
well she obviously just died in the dress, i thought it was kind of cool anyway..

re7-The scene with the bloody deer. Why is it unsafe to shoot a zombie but apparently ok to shoot a deer?
you do know it wasnt anyone in the group that shot the deer right?it is a new character we will meet in the next episode on hershels farm, minor spoiler as to why it happens. youd need to shoot a wild animal to kill it as it would be too fast to sneak up on and hack apart with a machete! while killing a zombie with a gun causes unnessecary noise as you could kill it with a knife,axe baseball bat. that point was also nitpicking!!

re8-Also deer don't just stand and look at you.....they're gone.

again who cares and thats nitpicking imo:p

re9-Two church scenes were ridiculous.
agreed, but i like the carol (the bald woman ) in the church scene, sort of developed a character we havnt seen much of. i quite like her, a quiet shy character,used to be dominated by her now dead abusive husband , now finding new found strength fighting her daemons. i really felt for her in that episode, i think shes a good actress.also like her daughter, now as for tdog, i wouldnt mind if he got the axe.:p he sorta annoys me.

r10-For the story to move along they group need to have some sort of plan which offers some hope.
well they did have plans,tried to go to atlanta,didnt work out, went to cdc and didnt work out, now they have no real plan but also they didnt in the comic but that leads us to our next big arc which will start in the next episode
r11 At the moment they are just drifting and stumbling from one crises to another with relationship problems inbetween.
thats the point of the story really a never ending hellishness where death is ever near ,they come across safehouses from time to time only to be shot down once again, a constant sense of desperation and despair.

now come on a lot of your points have been very nitpicky admit it!! i think your in the mid frame of a lot of people who like to hate the show and are all jumping on the same bandwagon and not giving it a chance, your all trying to fing wholes in it and watching the episodes with bias towards it already before you even watch it:D

re -Will stick with it but my patience is wearing thin and I'm afraid it'll turn me into the watching dead.
do !! and give it a good chance, start off afresh, as if youve heard the show is going to be really good and try to like the show and i bet youll love it. give it a go and enjoy. now if you still hate the next episode i'll leave you off;) but youll be missing out;)

Maybe it's a coincidence, or the signs of a show that diminishes in quality each week, but Every episode that Morgan has been in is much better than episodes he's not featured in!

i havnt seen ep 2 yet, was morgan in it? the only other episode he was in was pilot?
