The closer it got to the premiere date tonight, the more amped up I became. Not sure why that is because I've pretty much avoided all spoilers, with the exception of the Comic Con Trailer. Maybe it's having a buffer between now and TWD in October to make the wait a little less painful that made this one more appealing to me. With that, I started to build this up to an unreasonably high expectation which isn't the smartest thing to do. Happy to say that the Pilot was actually pretty good. More importantly was that I was very satisfied with how they set up the big reveal at the end. My biggest concern was that to please the TWD fans, they would just dive right into anarchy, which I think would have sucked donkey balls had they done it that way. I like getting a feel for the family dynamic and all the sh*t they are having to deal with regarding Nicky. Can't wait to see how they deal with the sh*t that happens at the end of this episode next week.
