It'll be a nice break from the other TWD we've been following.

Pile of burning trash. Everything beyond Season 1 of the Walking Dead is garbage and everyone involved should get herpes.

This looks better than I thought it would be. If they want to survive they need to find the fastest path out of the city. Getting to places like the country would be the best, less people and more open lines of view. The best case scenario would be finding a way to islands like the one Alcatraz is at and building walls around the island. This way you have water all around you, plus you can see when alive humans try to sneak up and kill you. Building cities like castles would also make it harder for the zombies and humans to breach.

Nah, not the country.. Makes the dynamic of the show a complete retelling of TWD.. The parallel perspectives are really quite unique.. I think this show could be better.. But nothing beats the comics.. Maybe the game... As in taletell one..

I agree with you that going to the country would make it look and feel more like TWD. I though was talking more about a real zombie outbreak, staying in the city would just be a stupid move. Less people close to you increases your chances to live. Going back and reading my comment I can see it was a little confusing, sorry about that.

I still can't believe they actually thought FTWD was a good show title, but this looks better than I was expecting. I haven't watched TWD regularly since season 2, but I might check this out.
