    The Absolutely Pointless 'How Many Times Have you Watched the Pilot' Thread

    Whether you've seen the pilot of the Walking Dead 0 times, or seen a dodecajillion times. Whether you're hear to tell us because you are trying to prove you are the one true fan of the show or compensating for some flaw of flesh or character you desperately hide away from others by way of exorbitant claims and tall tales. Please regale us with your claims of how many times you've watched pilot episode of The Walking Dead.

    Just a silly question for those of us who enjoyed the pilot.

    Me? I've seen it once, so far . Gotta watch it again before Sunday.

    A grand total of...once.

    I watched it, I loved it, I didn't see a point to watching it again. It's on the DVR if I decide to, but between writing, working, and spending time with the family I haven't really had the urge to.

    Watched the screener twice and then the premiere on AMC. Plan on watching it once more before episode 2 on Sunday(which is listed as 11pm on my schedule. Everywhere else is saying 10? )

    I think it's 10 Bass. That was when it aired Sunday & when they have it listed for on the next 2 Sundays on AMC's schedule.

    Watched twice, the night it aired.

    That's why i'm so confused. It's listed as 10 on the internet and AMC's scheduling, but my satelite schedule(dish network) has it at showing at 11?...

    Only seen it once.

    May watch it again if'n they air it before next week's episode.

    Otherwise I'll probably wind up renting it on DVD...eventually.
    Those aren't real problems, Sam.

    I just saw it again yesterday buddy and Upon further review: The call on the field is overturned !


    yeah they messed that blowing the brains out/crawling though the bottom of the tank scene. There was no pause, no moment of realization. It looked very , for lack of a better term (although I'm sure you can help me with that) fake.

    I am confessing I have watched it 4 times!!!
    Sunday night by myself...then daughter and second daughter watched with me again that night.
    Oh,btw: Daughter doesn't like zombie movies(hmmm is she my REAL daughter?)lol Anyway, my daughter Heather wants to watch it again. My second daughter Moh is into zombies and she thought it was freaking awesome!
    Believe me when I say my Heather doesn't like zombie movies..when I even mention about zombies she hollars at me cause she will have a weird zomb dream that night. lol
    TWD has a GREAT storyline that makes you wanna watch more of it. I am trying not to critic it cause I think it takes away from it. Myself I sit back and ENJOY....SIGH!! finally we got ourselves a zombie SERIES...what more can we ask for?????

    Held off, been good, controlled the urge etc...so I only watched it once.

    UK premiere tonight, so I get to watch (and record it) it in proper HD. I may "binge view" over the weekend.

    i have watched it 3 times now. i still have a high opinion of it. is it the greatest thing since sliced bread? probably not, but it is still pretty good nonetheless.
