Zombie Command

Syfy don’t exactly have the greatest line up at the moment but I’m hoping to overlook that with this new zombie comedy series, Zeros.

In this 1/2-hour single-camera satire, when the zombie population of Marshall City overcomes the 30-foot barrier separating the infected people from the rest of the city, the Zombie Extermination and Removal Operations company (the Zeros) are called in to keep the peace. When they can get out of their own way long enough to focus on a case, they are pretty effective with very unorthodox methods.

I’m not quite sure what’s happened to Syfy’s name generator but we instead propose DinoZombies vs MegaDroids!

Terrible view and sure to be taken down soon, but this first look at actual footage of upcoming zombie tv series The Walking Dead looks pretty good to us.

We’ll update as soon as a better version becomes available. Sent by @KnightyJr

Better (but still not great) quality version now up. We’ll get the official one once it’s out.

If you were worried that we may only see 6 TV episodes of the 75 issue long (and counting) comic book run of The Walking Dead then lucky for you it seems Season 2 has been confirmed.

A competition running on AMC just now states:

Ever dreamed of being a zombie? Now’s your chance, with AMC’s The Walking Dead Sweepstakes. Submit the online form and you’ll be entered in a random drawing to win a four-day, three-night trip to the location of The Walking Dead’s Season 2 production, plus the opportunity to become one of the undead in a Season 2 episode of The Walking Dead. (Exact specifics of the walk-on role will be determined at the producer’s sole discretion.)

Looks like reasonable confirmation to us. Why not enter here or check out these new promo images below (click to pop).

A quick look behind the scenes of upcoming zombie TV series The Walking Dead from MTV (as if you didn’t know anything about it already).

We get a word from director Frank Darabont and the comic book writer Robert Kirkman as well as a look at all the cool zombies and sets.

This full starting cast line-up photo appeared on some invitations to Comic Con 2010 where The Walking Dead will be hosting a panel.

It pretty much nails the tone of the comics and for those familiar with them all the characters are instantly recognisable.

We’re still not 100% sold on Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes but it looks like it will be a quality adaptation from AMC.
