The book was a bit overwritten and too long but still a good time.
Nice that they turned it into TV and not into just one film.

Actually I forgot about Better Call Saul so I'll amend my statement but most everything else on the channel has not been great that I've watched.
Edit: That's 3 crappy shows and 1 middling show ;D

I might wait until this is finished and then watch it quickly, although it looks so cool, I might have to watch as it airs.
"Because it camouflages as a historical drama, The Terror won't be for everyone. AMC might not quite get The Walking Dead audience to cross over to The Terror, which may turn out to be a niche delight for lovers of the Gothic, but those who do tune in will more than likely find something to love about this horror show. Just sit back and let these characters break the ice."
That's a strange review (at least the quoted part). The book is IMHO a historical survival drama with supernatural elements as a side dish and not horror "camouflaged" as historical drama - the bigger motive is survival while being stranded in the arctic, not "the terror".
And that comparison to TWD comes out of nowhere for me...

I don't know if this will be for me. Try as I may, and I have, I always have a hard time getting invested in period pieces.
Goddamit...been looking forward this,just checked how it's airing in the UK and it's on BTs shitty platform,oh well guess I'll have to buy it if it turns out good
It's premiering after TWD, AMC is definitely hoping some of the audience carries over
I'm not sure how they
could drop the monster. It's integral to the[ story/SPOILER]
I thought it was terrible through and through aside from some casting choices and a few parts of season 2. However this isn't really the thread for this.

Every thread is a thread to shit on Preacher as far as I'm concerned.
I thought season 3 was the best so far of Channel Zero. It's basically Phantasm

The story unwraps more linearly than in the book. Also, I believe they combine/condense some of the characters. Not sure about the rest.
Ok, I'm hopeful.
I wonder if they kept the final struggles near the end of the book. Those were easily among the most visceral and disturbing bits of the story.

Well then, my attention has been grabbed.

They're not advertising it though for some reason, which is dumb.
Is it true that amc is releasing all 10 episodes for premier customers ? That might be good for Me.
Ah, yeah that's unfortunate. If I'm remembering the Halt and Catch Fire time right, it got mentioned on Twitter out of nowhere, not many noticed, and then the next night both episodes aired like normal.
I guess they take sneak previews too literally, haha.

Yep!
No kidding. It would get a lot more attention if they actually advertised it because something airing behind TWD is sort of a big deal...
