Not to mention placing Talking Dead after Badlands. Badlands seemed promising from the initial promos, but I lost interest about half-way through the first episode. The action scenes were okay, but you still need a story and characters with some depth and coherency to give a damn about who lives or dies.

Absolutely. I'm sure Chris Hardwick hates this, despite the fact that he's playing nice and trying to talk up what he has to recognize is a crap show. I mean, I love the Talking Dead but I'm simply not going to wait around for another hour just to see it.
I only made it 10 minutes into the first episode until I OD-ed on cliche's.
You need the antidote....Fargo, either season 1 or 2.
Ya know, I completely forgot that they made a series out of it (the movie). Thanks Rev, I'll definitely check that out.
Got to have something to keep me entertained until Walking Dead comes back on in Feb.
It looks like there will be a major split between Morgan and Carol, assuming both survive more than a couple of episodes.
I expect watchers to take sides with a passion. I know I did.

In that case, count me a registered Carolite.
Note to Morgan: Sanctimony is the dubious luxury of civilized societies. Look at where you are, man.
I guess I should expect that. I am very much in the minority. Again.
I like Carol, but she has one flaw.
She doesn't kill enuf people.
Maybe we should.I wonder if you are.
Maybe we should make a poll.
Let's go all the way out and make another about Stannis from Game of Thrones as well.
I haven't felt enough of a minority as of late.
I wonder if either the series or the comics will reach a point where we truly feel the impact of time on the general environment, "Life After People"-style.
In the comics,it has been at least four years since the first outbreak. In the series it has of course been at least five, although there are reasons to believe that from the characters' viewpoint it must have been closer to a couple of years, three at most.
But that is still a long time for the world to be so little changed. Most notably, they keep finding vehicles with usable fuel, and food has not become a major concern yet. I would expect that even finding usable industrialized clothing would become something of a real concern after a couple of years.
The possibilities are so interesting that I look forward to the day that may or may not come when the remaining walkers will not be much of a factor anymore.
And... again... it seems that I am in the minority when it comes to what I expect of the series.
I've only ever watched one episode of Game of Thrones, so I'd have to sit that one out.
As far as the Carol vs Morgan ideological dilemma though, this is one of the things I really like about Walking Dead: in every case of conflicting ideals within the group, going back to Shane's way vs Ricks way or Dale vs the group back at Hershel's farm, etc., there's no immediate, obvious answer as to who's right, or even whether "right" should be a consideration in the face of practicality.
I don't know if I have any expectations....except that it should continue.
