The Walking Dead: TV Show

I've known for a few months now that AMC was creating an ongoing TV show for The Walking Dead but as I have never watched anything made by AMC, although I do enjoy their movie programming, and they had only signed for 6 episodes I didn't hold much hope for it in general.

In the recently wrapped up Sand Diego Comic Convention there was a trailer put out for the show, and I'm starting to look forward to October when the show is released. It's a pretty crumby recording, but it looks like they're doing some good work on the show:

I've only been following the comic for the last year, but in that time I took it upon myself to read everything they put out, going so far as to buy the monstrous compendium encompassing the first 48 issues in one book. Long story short, I love the comic and the trailer seems to be indicating that they have kept what's good and expanded what they needed to to make the tv show work; I've been wrong before, but this trailer looks promising to me.

I'll definitely be checking this one out when it hits the air. Never thought about it before, but thats an anachronism isn't it? Guess I should be saying "I'll definitely be checking this one out when it hits the Ethernet."
