Walking Dead Series 4 - spoilers will get their brains eaten
Discussion
Plenty of new faces, plenty of zombies killed, plenty of different story lines, plenty of possibilities of what the new threat could be. A good first episode.
This new threat then, anybody any the wiser after episode 1? There was a lot of close ups of the zomb with bulging eyes and Rick looking at it. The dead pig (animal zombs, disease?). The lad at the end dropping in the shower, what caused that?

I'm very pleased with the first episode.
Mainly because of the action alongside dialogue, which in my opinion has the correct balance of action-speaking/character development.
This new threat: as stated could be airborne. That would be very interesting. Personally I think it's going to be a recurring theme. Whether the virus itself has mutated, or it's just a disease from the pigs, either way, I can't see the writers putting this type of thing in even half the episodes,
I didn't notice this myself (had a few beers) but Rick stares at the same zombie at the end of the episode as he did at the beginning. An article I read pointed out this shows the continual threat of what's around them.
Not a groundbreaking observation of course, but interesting I think.

The zombie with the bugged out eyes freaked me out. It was properly disturbing, A + to the man who did that make up. I enjoyed the first episode of this season however the constant commercial breaks every 5 minutes gets very old very quick and makes viewing quite unenjoyable, breaking up the story far too often. Also, I felt the entire scene(s) with Rick and the woman in the woods was weak and boring. Like filler garbage for the sake of nothing at all. It just felt very out of place, and there was no real pay off due to not showing the womens husbands head in the basket.

I love the effort that goes into the makeup for this. So far so good, even though it's early days, it looks like they're continuing the staggered stages of decomposition as time in the show goes on. Good stuff.
I agree about the woman, I was hoping there were going to be a group of cannibals where she was leading Rick to, but no.
Still, it's better than massive amounts of boring, st speeches at the farm!
There has been some great casting news recently for new characters in S4.
Will spoiler it so as not to upset those who don't want to know about future characters.

As Spanna said, I think everyone should be aware that spoiler tags do not work on the current mobile beta.
So I've removed spoilers.
