Starve your fear, feed your life. You'll find that you might be completely different all together. And then you'll decide which one you like better.

six episodes is awesome! Is that the whole of season one or will there eventually be at least a thirteen episode commitment? I figure we'll at least get to see Shane shot by Carl. | |

If it just stays as six, the first season would probably end with them finding the prison and Rick being awesome and inspirational. | |
