Did you watch?
For a show on a non premium cable channel, I thought it was very good. I never read the comic, so I don't know how it compares, but I'll be watching every Sunday. pisses me off that I don't get AMC in HD though.

1. When the hell will Hollywood learn about guns? At the roadblock at the beginning, the Sheriff tells the deputy to "make sure you've got a round in the chamber and the safety's off" First, Glocks don't have a safety and secondly, when he racks the slide, you can clearly see the gun IS NOT loaded.
2. Cops can't shoot for s**t.
3. You wake up in a hospital and no one's around, you make your way out seeing blood and bullet holes on the walls and dead bodies, you come across a military camp and you don't think to find a weapon or "borrow" a Humvee?
4. Apparently zombies don't care about fresh meat if you're in a coma.
5. When the SHTF, I want Lennie James (Hawkins from Jericho) on my team, he's a badass mofo.
6. Zombies enjoy chillin' on the bus.
7. Again, when you see military equipment, including fully loaded M2 machine guns, you don't think to scavenge for weapons & supplies.
8. A horse feeds a lot of zombies.
9. It's apparently better to crawl under a tank, rather than climb on top and try to get in or use the Ma Deuce to blast some undead a-holes.
10. The Sheriff has absolutely no survival mentality.
Update: Watching episode 2:
1. If you're gonna chop up a zombie, you may as well rob his ass. Hopefully he's an organ donor.
Fast forward 10 minutes and they are speeding through the streets RIGHT near the building housing the folks thay are attempting to rescue ... but the streets are dry as bone and there's not a cloud in the sky.
WTF?????

Haven't seen ep 2 yet. Hopefully you were joking tho... you wouldn't exactly want to transplant in an infected organ...

As an aside, if I were in his place, I'd want an AR-15/M-16 (maybe even 2), a pair of Glock 17s w/ 33rd mags & as many fully loaded mags as I could carry. Definitely (at least) 2 sidearms, remember they are mechanical devices that could malfunction.
Once you see ep 2, and if you've seen "Scary Movie", you'll get that comment.

The only reason he might find a military gun in *this* scenario is because the military was put on patrol. That being said, I doubt he'd find enough ammo to really justify carrying it around for any amount of time.
Since we're talking about survival plans... might as well post mine..

I miss Jericho.
and Lost.
Really, I'm not a TV addict - I am very choosy about what shows I DVR. Right now, this is it. And Mythbusters.

BTW, The Walking Dead has already been renewed for a second season.

lol I thought I was the only one who noticed that and thought it was funny
A silencer is not something that would just be laying around. There would be no reason for that Sheriff's Office to have one, anyways. And it's not like they are whisper-quiet anyways, they still make a decent amount of noise.
Yes i know but they make a he'll of a lot less noise than a non silenced one.
