So apparently AMC is doing a zombie series?

Here's a [super long] teaser they showed at Comic Con:

Explain to me why I'm so excited for this. Haha. They're zombies!

I am excited for this.

I'm going to make people in fandom watch it, so you're one less person to convince. :)

Hahah.

I'm super excited for this too! (It's got Sarah Wayne Callis from Prison Break!)

I saw that she was in it when I looked it up. Can't wait to see what it's like.

Every time I read or hear about that show, the first thought in my mind is "Omg, this show is custom-made for sol_se!"

[sol-se.livejournal.com]

Heh, it totally is! THEY BUILT ME A SHOW.

I'm just hoping that this series will be at least, even half as awesome as the comic it's based upon.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hopefully so. Usually comics are well suited for adaptation I think.

It's going to be amazing. I've been waiting a very long time for somebody to wise up and do a zombie television show.

The beginning reminded me of 28 Days Later--with the main character waking up in a deserted hospital.

I'm suddenly very excited for it to be October already. It's amazing to me that they're doing it, but equally amazing that nobody's done it before.

Yeah definitely... [Even though I've never seen 28 Days Later]

I've been psyched about this for ages, although I imagine I'm going to have to start sleeping with the lights on come October...it'll probably be worth it though. ;)

I actually just heard about it but I'm extremely stoked about the idea. It just seems so fun!

Whoa zombies!!!! I'm disturbingly excited about this right now ...ZOMBIES.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hahah I know right? What's not awesome about zombies?

[beerbad.livejournal.com]

Soooooo excited!!! I adore the comic series to pieces and I hope the show stays as close to the source material as possible... awesome stuff. (And I always thought zombies would be well-suited for television, it's about time!)

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah it really is about time. I was saying above I'm equal parts shocked they're actually doing it and shocked that nobody's done it before. Should be pretty rad.
