This shite is getting old. We went as far as to make 2 separate threads just to discuss the show, and somehow both have been ruined by nonstop political bullshite.




This board used to be a place that was free of all of the bullshite of the OT and PT, it was a place where we all got along (for the most part), had fun threads and good discussions and you didn't have all of the trolling that you have now. It was the best board on this site, with the best people on it. Those days are long gone now and its just shite thread after shite thread. I miss the days of Freaux's MWADS and IWY's tournaments, frick what this place has become and frick everyone who turned it into this.

The first half of the episode was basically the prologue showing how the downfall of civilization started. It probably didn’t feel like a prologue because they had the scene about fungi beforehand.. and because it was quite long. I was actually starting to wonder whether the game’s opening sequence would be an entire episode.


Yeah it honestly could have been. I’m hoping 9 episodes is enough to cover game one and they don’t need to speed things up in some episodes.

our fantasy football league is literally called the MTV League it's all posters who used to frequent this board and i've made 11 brothers for life from this board but it's gotten so bad we just stick to the chat now to discuss movies/TV because the politics and trolling is way out of hand now.

Is there even a admin for this board anymore? If there is, they suck at their job. Someone needs to clean this place up and make them leave the politics where they belong, not here


I know the admins are about to start getting tired of the RA's from me.

Don't man. You're too good of a poster to stop. Just RA the poli board talk on the few certain weirdos and maybe something will get done.

Anyway got to rewatch the episode this morning and I’ll say this the best episode of a show I’ve seen since classic GoT. The episode was pretty much perfect, can’t think of anything negative to say or any change I didn’t like. The cold open was perfect for setting up what was about to happen and explaining to newbies of what exactly what the infection was. Despite knowing what was going to happen the tension was still very much there especially in scenes that did not exist in the game like Sarah’s venture into the neighbors’ house. The shot for shot remakes of the game like the truck ride into the city as perfect and what a nice fake out with the truck. Truly felt like all hell was breaking lose, and of course Sarah’s death hit just as damn hard as it did in the game. And now that they kind of rushed through Robert’s crew we finally get to go out of the city and into the outside. So much coming soon that I can’t wait to see

. I saw the show last night, and literally couldn’t wait to read the TD thread this morning after my workout. And this is what I got.

I see that it took less than 24 hours from the episode airing to this thread being ruined.


Also - great first episode and I know nothing about the video game.

Anyone else having issues with HBO Max right now? I keep getting a "Something Went Wrong" error message every time I try to stream the show.

Agreed. I’ll rewatch with my teenager today and am looking forward to it. He was pissed I didn’t let him watch with friends last night I’m just still a bit protective.

I’m glad they didn’t have to feel the need to have a hook and cram too much 20 years later.

The ONLY thing i wish they hadnt changed, and its not really a big deal to be, is having








not sure what the deal is with spoilers in this thread at this point so SPOILERS











is having the Fireflies kill Robert instead of Tess and Joel. That's it, the rest was perfection.

Freaux's MWADS


I'd love for another one of these. I used to love writing a review for some of the top movies in each one. It got mentioned a while back about doing another one but I think Freaux said he wasn't going to. Sad.

IWY's tournaments


I have another one in mind that I will try and do soon. Been struggling with some health issues and work is stressful so I haven't had the extra time to stay on top of one.

I remember my first "best movies - Microsoft paint version" (where we all just drew movie scenes in Microsoft paint) stayed on the first page of google for a long time if you searched "best movies." Which is pretty impressive

I was hesitant about the Bella Ramsey hire, and I know it's only one episode, but I think she is going to be fine. I think I can get her Game of Thrones character out of my head.

She actually annoyed me a good bit. It felt like they tried to give her as many curse words in her dialogue as they could to make her “edgy.” I don’t know why it just didn’t feel natural for some reason….came off completely fake to me.

But I’m interested to see what her deal is with being immune to bites and whatnot.

I mean in the game every sentence of Ellie's dialogue basically consisted of a noun, a verb, and the word "motherfricker"

...her character never shied away from curse words
