Just...MORE ZOMBIES & GORE, please! :twisted: Oh, I absolutely agree that zombies probably *do* fall under paranormal…like a sub-set…I just never think of them that way. :|

TWD is more horror than para. Although, paranormal does mean "above the normal" and flesh-rotting, organ-eating zombies is def above the normal in my world...but tomato,-tomahto. ;-) And to your point, I agree! MOAR Zombies!!! Let's hope that Feb 12's mid-season premiere (a mid-season break, really?! :evil:) is full of MONSTERS! :twisted: I see your point. TWD is more horror than para.

I'll check FX.com and hulu.com too, but at last check, they had all the episodes available to play---except for the first one. :| Aww, thanks!

I liked it, but didn't LOVE it. I stuck with it, tho, & then... Well, you know those commercials where the ladies have their hair blow back (K-Y? Trojan? Something intimate)? Yeah, it blew my hair back big-time. :mrgreen: I was really glad my friend warned me of that, because the first few eps of Supernatural were okay, but very formulaic. I liked it, but didn’t LOVE it.

To me, paranormal is otherworldly creatures, but zombies fall more into "horror" than paranormal. Potato/potato, tho, I'm sure. I absolutely love horror & zombies. I mean LOOOOOVE them. But even tho I love that aspect of Walking Dead, I'm getting a little tired of the personal drama & how slow the show can be sometimes. I've always said that the one thing The Walking Dead needs most it MORE ZOMBIES!!! :twisted: Oh, I am all over The Walking Dead, but…this is going to sound weird…I don’t consider it paranormal.

There's a whole brother/familial/absentee father arc that really builds & is revealed slowly from the beginning. And shoot--TNT just started playing them over from #1 on Monday. Now you're behind again! :sad: You also MUST start watching Grimm & Once Upon a Time. Ohmigosh, they are SO good. Seriously, amazingly good. They're already on my "darn it, I'm going to have to buy these on DVD, aren't I?" mental list. :evil: As for Being Human...I've been told the UK version is way better than the US one, so if you have the chance to check it out, I would. I'm not sure I even want to, I was so disappointed in the SyFy version. And yet I continue to watch new eps just to keep up---what the heck is wrong with me?! I've never gotten into Vampire Diaries or TrueBlood. Didn't care for the books, so couldn't work up any interest in the shows. But someday, I probably will check them out, at least a little bit.

But it can be hard to find stuff from the beginning once they get a few eps under their belt. I'll keep an eye out for you, too. ;-) If you watch the FX schedule, they tend to repeat *a lot*.
