I've done my best to avoid any single thing written in this thread so far as I've been holding off on watching this show for a while. However, I finally had time to sit down and quickly burn through season 1 (not particularly hard, to be honest... 6 episodes?

). I'm soooo glad I decided to start watching this. I'll be the first to admit that while I love zombie-related things, the whole genre is getting hugely played out. However, the series is well written and has some great acting. I love the fact that background music is rare and that they simply use silence instead of dramatic "scary" music in order to make the viewer feel uncomfortable in different scenes.
Gonna pick up season 2 soon. I'm pretty sure I'll rip through that as well in less than a week...
