Yeah, thanks for sharing PK but in which case get out of the thread.

Can't wait for part 2 on FX, this series has been great, some nice twists.

Hope they use the prison & Governor storylines for season3.

When's Part 2 meant to start up again on FX?

I liked season 1, but didn't care much for season 2. Once they got to that ranch/farm the series just got bogged down and didn't really go anywhere. Won't be watching it when it picks up again on FX.

Well they said that the Season 2 release was going to be uncut, but I think I'll wait until its out and confirmed before deciding on buying.

While the first half has been a tad slow, I've actually really enjoyed it. They needed the time to get more character development and they did a great job with that. Loved the final moments of the mid-season finale and I am very excited for what the rest of season 2 has to offer. Will have to get this as soon as it's out.

They have said the second half of series 2 will have a lot more going on. I think the show has been frustrating overall, it shows bags of promise but never quite fulfills. Perhaps I was spoilt by reading the excellent source material first although I'm enjoying it enough to tune in every week still.

Same here - I wasn't thrilled about the first few episodes (well, 2 to 6) but that ending was the first time since the pilot that the series has translated the tone of the comics. Rick's survival-above-all attitude especially but just the general crippling, impossible decisions and hopeless tragedy that runs through the comic sries. Not to mention Shane's speech feeling like a classic speech from the comics - angry, proud, hyperbolic, shouty! It was enough to win me back over and hope that it's a sign of things to come.

Having said that the series will really have to pick up to make me buy it. At the moment I have no plans to rewatch any of it and I'm past the point in collecting boxsets just because I like the show. Of course, should they get to

[Show spoiler]the prison

and it all be done with the same brilliant grimness as the comics then it might very well win me over.

I am so excited for this. I'm so buying it! - Surprisingly the cuts in season 1, didn't bother me too much.

Are the episodes that air in the UK for season 2 uncut? If so the Blu will be too. The first season was cut on blu because the episodes shown on TV were cut. A whole stupid licensing issue.

But from what I know the second seasson is uncut on UK tv so the Blu will be too.

[NicWhit]

What kind of cuts are we talking about?
Massive bloody body parts flying around or 2milisecond sweary moments?

[Mavrick]

the UK DVD/Blu-ray release is a pre-cut version of the series shown in its entirety on US TV. The BBFC did not impose any further cuts for a 15 rating.

Saying that the pilot episode 1 is shown in its entirety rather than an (uncontentiously) shortened version shown on US TV.

But other episodes were cut for violence

Episode 2: 9s of cuts to Rick dismembering a corpse with an axe and then delving around in its innards. See pictorial cuts details from movie-censorship.com.
Episode 4: Missing two explicit and gory zombie bites in the scene where the camp is attacked near the end. One of these – where a young woman is bitten in the throat, with screams and gushing blood.
Episode 5: 12s of cuts to Carol twice driving a pickaxe into the head of her dead husband. See pictorial cuts details from movie-censorship.com

I enjoyed the first series and bought the Blu-ray, but I don't have Sky or anything so I haven't seen season 2 yet. A definate pre-order for me though.

Fingers crossed channel 5 will air the series soon.
