I actually hadn't heard that this was going to be on AMC, I thought it'd be a miniseries on HBO or something. Well AMC just released some makeup test photos...and WOW. I'm really excited about this.

I was gonna totally use that pic as an eventual sig, but you just killed the mystery that would've surrounded it. Thanks Moon.
You forgot to mention that the show is being written and directed by Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, The Mist), and now The Walking Dead. It has The at the beginning of the title, its gotta be good. Oh wait...The Majestic... Ah well, this is sure to be at least decent fun.
f*ckING SICK, the title threw me off at first because it's a pretty obvious name when it comes to zombie-affiliated fare, but it IS actually based off the comic. The Walking Dead series is f*cking sublime and actually pretty scurry, i encourage you all to read it. This has gotten me stoked.
AMC's really coming into its own. I hope to see more truly original television series' like this in the future

QUOTE (Press Release)
AMC RELEASES THE FIRST PHOTO OF ANDREW LINCOLN AS RICK GRIMES FROM THE SET OF "THE WALKING DEAD"
Robert Kirkman, creator/writer of the comic and executive producer on the series says:
"Writing this book for the past seven years I've gotten very close to the character of Rick. Andrew Lincoln embodies every aspect of the character that fans know and love. After seeing this photo I don't think that there will be a doubt in anyone's mind that he's perfect for the role."

From Comic-Con.
Oh, and Frank Darabont is only directing the first episode. All the rest are split between various TV directors, with experience from Breaking Bad, The Shield, etc.
