Just watched the first episode. It wasn't terrible. But there's something odd about AMC's style. I've noticed it in other series. I'm not sure if its their directing, editing, or what. Its just odd, artistically. Like they're tying to make something seem like an indie movie or something. Hard to place my finger on the particulars. When Rick was lying on the floor of his house the cut-aways and camera angles and blends just caught me as ... odd

I read a good portion of the graphic novels before giving up on them for getting lame, predictable, and repetitive. One of those cases where they should have quit while they were ahead, but they thought they had something good going and wanted to keep it going, just for the sake of keeping it going. A good artist knows when to call it quits. And speaking of art, the art style totally changed in that comic which completely threw me off. Once the plot took a nose dive there was no reason for me to keep returning to it

I honestly don't expect much better out of the series. But I'll give it a couple episodes. I'll probably download episode 2 sometime today or tomorrow
