Webisodes

sparkthatbled

Anyone watch the 2 sets of webisodes? I watched the first one (Torn Apart) but not the second. I thought it was pretty good, although a lot shorter than i was expecting. For those that haven't seen it, it's the story of Hannah (the legless zombie Rick shot in the first episode). Apparently the second one (Cold Storage) is unrelated to anything in the main show and features a group of survivors holed up inside a storage facility (insert Dave Hester joke here). Is that one worth watching, and if so where can i find it? It won't let me watch them on the AMC website because i'm outside the US. I watched Torn Apart on youtube but can't find Cold Storage on there.

On the subject, what do you think would make a good webisode series before the next season? I was thinking maybe the story of what happened the black guy and kid Rick met in the first episode, or maybe they could have ones about how each member of the original group joined in turn. I'd like to see Dale's story in particular, but i don't think they would include any of the main cast in it.

I havent watched any of them, if anyone has links please post.

Id like to see the farm since it got overrun by walkers.
Id like to see what happened in the prison (executed prisoners, rubble at the back where Tyreese's group got in).
Id like to see whats happening with the French scientists.
Id like to see how the tank ended up on the street in Atlanta.
Id like to know if the guys Rick shot in the bar were from Woodbury.

Lots of stuff really!!

There's a few users on youtube that have all parts of Torn Apart, just a matter of searching part 1 and going from there.

I'd love to know how to see Cold Storage, yuuuuuuuuuuup! I'd pay 50 bucks, all day long! I'll stop with the storage wars jokes now...

Most of what you'd like isn't even remotely feasible given the costs involved in recreating the sets for them - webisodes have very limited budgets and mostly will just be making use of previously used props and sets from the main series - but the highlighted one is the strange one.

That would absolutely ruin the pace and verve of the show, perhaps the most basic key to the series is that they don't really know if anywhere is safe or survived properly. To just cut away because of some throw-away mention of french scientists would be an incredibly obvious jump-the-shark moment, even in a webisode. The most boring and rote question in any zombie outbreak is the why.

I think you're losing track of what the show is about - the titular Walking Dead are the humans, not the walkers.

Jeez - way to pour cold water on my fantasy wishlist!

Cold Storage is great. I'd like to see Torn Apart, though I've heard it's not great.

Its on youtube.

I thought Torn Apart was better, although it's a long time since I saw it. Thought the acting was a little hammy in Cold Storage.

Obviously they can't have stuff that affects the main series' story, but maybe you could have the farm as discovered by another group after the horde moved on, maybe one of them finds an old abandoned RV on the property and gets her going again

I really liked the two webisodes they've done already, especially Torn Apart, it had a few good jumps in it!
I know it's not feasible now as the actress has gotten too old for it now, but I think a great webisode would have been to show what happened to Sofia when she was in the woods. Where she ended up, how she got bitten and how Otis found her and got her in the barn on the farm... It all would have taken place over the course of a day if Otis was the one who put her in there, it would have made a pretty cool short!

Any sign of webisodes for Season 5? Have heard literally nothing about it. Seems like all their attention is going on the spin-off show.
