    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I am really looking forward to seeing this series.

    With that said, I won't be watching it on TV but will wait until it comes out on DVD/Blu-Ray to rent it from Netflix. I don't do shows on regular run television for various reasons (all of which I've whined/discussed here before so won't go back into again). I'll look forward to watching it if it runs a full season without being cancelled (which I doubt it will) and if it does get cancelled without a legitimate ending I won't have to worry about it becuase I won't have started watching it to get interested and thus become disappointed that it's become cancelled.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to watching the whole first season on DVD / Blu-Ray come next Halloween as opposed to just getting week by week installments.

    Oblivion gallops closer, favoring the spur, sparing the rein - I think we will be gone soon

    WTF? Editing my posts, are we?

    Anyway...I was just stating that I haven't heard an official UK release date yet...

    I'll look forward to watching it if it runs a full season without being cancelled (which I doubt it will) and if it does get cancelled without a legitimate ending I won't have to worry about it becuase I won't have started watching it to get interested and thus become disappointed that it's become cancelled.
    AMC has already picked the show up for a 14 episode second season following the first 6 episode season. No cancelling just yet.

    i'm no scientist or anything, but i'm pretty sure that the UK release date is the 30 mins after the US showing is over for someone to torrent it, and the 30 mins it takes someone to get it.

    I'll be at ZomBcon that weekend. Hopefully they'll be able to organize a screening at the convention.

    We will have to have a STRICT *spoiler* policy!

    Well, I'll be torrenting the US airing, Sky+ing the UK airing, buying the DVD, the Blu-ray, t-shirts, mugs, pencil sharpeners, bean bags, wobbly head dolls, etc.

    Seriously though, I think it'll only be 2 days later at the most in the UK. I can handle that.

    Separate threads for each episode, with a clear "**SPOILER**" warning on the title, so we can all join in once we've seen it - i.e. no posting about episode content in other threads.

    I do hope we Brits get it like November 1st or 2nd at the latest. I can't abide waiting a week or something ruddy nonsense like that. Legion had it right - hell on earth avoiding spoilers on here for TWD come November.

    So one of you mods wanna tell me why you're editing my posts?

    Strict spoiler policy? Just use spoiler tags.

    How about a policy where you don't edit my posts for no apparent reason?

    Agreed! Thread per episode, spoilers to be expected in them! So read at your own risk etc...

    All the more reason to politely but firmly encourage the use of spoiler tags, common courtesy and common sense.
