Tangible loss in quality. Also story inconsistencies within their own canon. Very dissapointing

So ****ing stupid, way to ruin the show.
So they have to bath in blood and skin so the zombies don't smell them, now suddenly they can hide under cars and nothing?

The whole herd thing annoyed me because I don't know where they would have all came from considering the survivors were driving for hours and they would have seen them if they were on the road. But I guess they could have come from the woods.

When one geek starts shuffling off in one direction, other geeks follow. the original geek at that point doesn't know why it went in that direction in the first place and is just part of the herd. There are herds of millions roaming across the nation.

I agree. It has always been my opinion that the covering yourself with gore part was stupid, even in the comic. They did it in the 2nd issue and 100 issues later, it never happens again. I don't know why they decided to include it in the TV show except for the "shock" value.

Secondly why is he riding a motorcycle? Aside from the fact it makes a boatload of noise and draws the dead to them it also serves no purpose or protection. In season 1 Glen drove a muscle car and everyone freaked out over the noise.

While I agree with you that a loud chopper, which offers practically zero protection from a mob of zombies, is a stupid idea. A motorcycle does have value as a scout vehicle. Although, you'd think that he would have surveilled a few miles ahead and would have warned them of the traffic situation long before they reached it.
But... the reason they were pissed about the muscle car was because of the blaring alarm not necessarily because it was a loud muscle car.

There are a lot of stupid little things that make no sense and eventually it adds up to making the show terrible.

There are things that can be improved on, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that it is a terrible show. It's better than 95% of the other junk on TV.

edit: Andrea wanting to run away with Shane... yeah. no. In fact, the whole CDC episode never even happened in the comic.

zombies had super senses in season 1 and could smell human flesh from a couple of feet away
now all you need to do is hide under a car and it's ok
LOL

why is it not feasible that the general area smelled like a big bag of dead **** thus throwing off the zombie spidey sense? seems like every other car had something dead in it.
don't get me wrong i was thinking the same thing but still, its a zombie show why are you being myopic about every detail? just sayin, zombies aren't real ...

I don't get this complaint at all.
They had to bath in zombie gore to walk among them, there are plenty of times in season 1 where they get right by zombies by they dont see them.
Like when the korean guy is going to get the guns left by the tank, he runs by a bunch and since they dont see him they dont do anything.
They are zombies, not super humans

you need to cover yourself in gore only when walking through a horde of zeds
as long as you're not walking through the crowd, plain old hiding is fine
i dont see why thats a problem

Finally got around to watching the season 2 opener. Holy **** ads - I thought people were exaggerating but when I watched it online with Xfinity - it was like 1:30, with what seemed like 30+ minutes of ads.
I thought it was OK, kind of meh - we'll see how it goes from here.

Hey dumbasses this is why DVR/torrents are better than watching **** cable.

If they deviate from the comics too much then it will be bothersome. There is some **** that's supposed to happen that makes a big impact. If they leave it out then the show will be bland.
Where's Michone? Why T-Dogg and not Tyreese? I need people to be introduced and ****ing die.
