Anyone else watch this show? This show, it's fantastic. The season 2 finale just aired last night, and it was unreal. If anyone was a fan of Lost, the creator Lindelof is behind the show, he adapted the book with the same name during the first season, the second season is an original continuation.

I know other TV shows are ending as well or they are on break due to the holidays, so if you need something to binge watch, check it out. It's a somber show, it only gives you glimpses of hope here and there, but the payoff is so worth it. The episode "International Assassin" is one of my favorite episodes of any show I've watched. I'd also recommend the soundtrack, I can't praise it enough.

I'm going to give it a watch but i'm debating if I should watch it now or just wait for it to end and then watch.

I love binge watching shows and not waiting week to week for the next episode.

Good show. Liked this season a lot. I am fan of HBO Sunday Nights. I will tune in to watch Vinyl in Feb which should end right before the next Game of Thrones season.

Wasn't a huge fan of the first season, but the second was great.

Well, there even being a third season is up in and the air. Won't be knowing if it's renewed or not until the beginning of 2016, sadly. Probably the best time to binge watch it now.

I wonder did the original walking dead writers leave to write this show?

Early years of Lost, the walking dead, and this show are some of the best writing I've seen on tv lately.

I only enjoyed The Walking Dead when Frank Darabont was involved. Everything beyond season 1, especially season 2, was pretty bad.

Lindelof has really learned from the mistakes he made with Lost. It would be a shame if HBO cancels it.

I think the writing got incrementally bad. Little by little. And now it's just horrifically bad where people have to act ridiculously stupid to get bit where they actually have had to lean in. And where Rick actually thought it was a good idea to have a zombie parade.

That's what I did with Breaking Bad.

Alright.

I hate it when they just cut a show like that.

I enjoyed The Newsroom and they just ended it quick.

Season 1 was ok, season 2 was amazing. It is by far the best show on TV.

I just hope HBO renews it for a third season as its ratings havent been that great.
