    If it was truly meant to be a 6 episode event rather than a running series then I kinda hope they leave it that way. Sounds like most people weren't crazy about the premiere anyway though.

    From what I've seen, it has been a 2 season show all along.

    I would say both series are drama - and are clearly character driven (TWD very much so at this point) with concentrated moments of action, if you want to call it that. Not a whole lot of car chases or fighting.
    I dislike that TWD feels like it has a kill quota each episode but it comes with the ratings territory I suppose.

    I like the subtle bits of impending doom in FTWD -
    like the hospital immediately removing the old man who died, the sister awaiting a never-coming text from her boyfriend, people thinking footage is faked etc.
    Things are going to go downhill fast from this point.
    It will be an interesting ride.

    It will run as long as ratings warrant it. Kirkman compared it to the CSI franchises and there's talk of even more startups...

    Yet they will continue to watch. I think people are attuned to talking sh*t about something as a default. Watch as the names on this show get anchored in pop culture like "Dixon" etc..

    While I think they need to be careful as they're already running the risk of overkill.... I've always liked the idea of one set in the far north. Snow zombies would be pretty cool.

    @CRUDS I did not notice that about the old codger... good catch

    and I agree it will be interesting.


    There is also that group from the 1st season of TWD that went their own way when the Rictators started heading to the farm.


    I think the real purpose of this show is a bone to TWD hard core. Ratings will be much better than deserved cause amazingly this thing ends about the same time TWD returns
