Just saw a clip of this on Facebook and it says it's showing from 23rd August. Does anyone know if we can see in here? Need a zombie fix til TWD comes back!

We can get it here but unfortunately it is a BT exclusive.

glenthebattleostrich · 12/08/2015 20:19

Gits. I'm hoping one of the freeview channels pick this up or it turns up on prime.

Have you tried z nation on pick? It's no walking dead but its very watchable

DontOpenDeadInside · 25/08/2015 21:47

Anyone watch this and have an opinion on it? I watched it online, I don't think its on in uk til 31st.

Got to say, its different to what i was expecting, but maybe it just needs more time to find its feet.

KingJoffreyLikesJaffaCakes · 25/08/2015 23:07

I'm watching it now.

Spoiler alert: It's really boring.

gingerboy1912 · 25/08/2015 23:20

King what channel are you watching it on?

KingJoffreyLikesJaffaCakes · 25/08/2015 23:22

On internet.

gingerboy1912 · 25/08/2015 23:30

Ah thanks.

Writtenbyme · 26/08/2015 07:53

I really enjoyed it. I don't have any constructive comments to back that up, just enjoyed it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 26/08/2015 07:57

How does one find it on the Internet

Seems it is shown on a channel that you only get via bt - which is the one bloody channel we don't get and pay almost £90 for sky !!!!!

DontOpenDeadInside · 26/08/2015 08:45

Dp uses a "fully loaded tv box" no idea what one is, but I'm not arguing if it means I can watch Walking Dead Wink
We have virgin but sadly do not have FOX or BT channels, and don't want to pay extra £ just for 2 shows.
I think had they both been on the same channel, we would have considered subscribing.

I actually really enjoyed it. They don't have the luxury of jumping straight into the drama of it all...the whole premise is about the character's coming to the gradual realisation that the world's going to shit.

Not that I think the mum and her OH are particularly believable. I very much like the son and daughter though.

ElderlyKoreanLady · 26/08/2015 22:13

Blonde, not strictly legally I'm afraid. I use a VPN, browse pirate bay in an incognito window for the torrent and then have torrent software to turn it into a watchable file.

I pretty much only use it for TWD and now Fear. I absolutely bloody hate it when Facebook shows me things that American viewers have posted about an episode that hasn't aired here yet.

gamerchick · 26/08/2015 22:15

Pilot is on freeview, it's a bt new channel exclusive so Virgin et al won't get it for another 6 months or so.

It's not boring, nobody's giving it a chance because they're expecting a load of action, the characters need to build first.

ElderlyKoreanLady · 26/08/2015 22:25

Exactly gamer. I can't understand the disappointment and poor reviews. If they went from 0 to apocalypse in the first episode, they'd have pissed away a lot of opportunities to do something with this series that's no longer possible for TWD. These characters aren't supposed to look at the clues and assume apocalypse, nor are they supposed to know how to handle people who do look battered but essentially appear alive. I think the criticism is coming mostly from people who prefer violence to plot.

TheFormidableMrsC · 26/08/2015 22:31

I was sure I saw an advert on FB which said this was being aired on 28 August...I must have misread it. I presumed I would be able to watch it on Fox...absolutely gutted. Can't wait for the return of TWD, it is literally the only thing I watch on TV.

gamerchick · 26/08/2015 22:40

Precisely, you wouldn't leave the house tomorrow and see random radgy packets running around and assume zombie apocalypse would you? I might mind because I'm well into it Grin

I'm gutted I'm going to have to download from bit torrent to watch it though, low blow there.

cherrytree63 · 26/08/2015 22:43

I've just watched the first two episodes online, on cnfstudio.com.

ElderlyKoreanLady · 26/08/2015 22:47

Yeah, I may also come to the zombie conclusion far before others. I've come to the conclusion that I'll have to kill the upstairs neighbour if it all kicks off because my big living room window makes my flat vulnerable Blush . I'm re-reading the comics to prepare for October Grin

gamerchick · 26/08/2015 22:56

Heh I think like that.

Every time I get a key holder position I scout the perimeter, my last job was perfect. Self contained building, bottled gas cooking with sturdy fences and all key locks/padlocks in gates or upstairs with ground fire door key locks. Now it's a stupid goverment building with electric key cards... Useless Angry

The husband gives me slidey eyes a bit Grin

ElderlyKoreanLady · 26/08/2015 22:59

Foolish man! Thinking like that, he'll be one of the first to go. Don't get overly attached Wink

gamerchick · 26/08/2015 23:02

Believe it, I have sharp things hanging above my bed Wink

ElderlyKoreanLady · 26/08/2015 23:05

I'm actually impressed...very few people think like us!

gamerchick · 26/08/2015 23:11

I know it's like coming home. You get many slidey eyes but guarenteed if the shit hit the fan they're the people you'll be defending your stash from!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/08/2015 09:29

Thanks eldery that some complicated and I'm blonde Grin
