As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Is this the same show? Link doesn't work.

But there's a show called this on Amazon Prime, now. Cartoon.

I had/have no knowledge of the source material.... my kid said it was decent.

Watched episode 1. Pretty standard stuff, I liked the father/son bonding. I was not prepared for the tonal shift in the last 4 minutes.

WIll continue on.

According to Google, no. Seth is working on a movie.

I always heard about the books being good, but I never read them. This is on my watch list.

Was written by Kirkman, so I should have expected the dark part, I spose.

I am coopting this thread since the original link doesn't work.

Pretty sure I just heard him as a VA in episode 2.

Show is still strong, so far. It isn't annoying me like many cartoons do when they try to be serious.

Finished it, it's a better show than a lot of things I watch. I wasn't even annoyed the show follows high school kids. I give it an A.

I figured out this show's defining characteristic:

Remember how in Man of Steel, the Kryptonians have a massive battle in Metropolis, and it's clear that ten thousand civilians get killed..... bloodlessly? All implied?

This show shows the kills up close. Graphically.
