From IGN.

AMC have announced The Walking Dead will get an expanded, 90-minute season premiere. The Season 2 premiere airs Sunday, October 16th on AMC at 9pm. Taking a page from a lot of other cable series of late, they've also revealed the season will air in two halves. The first seven episodes will air over consecutive weeks through October and November. The show will then take a break through December and January, and episodes eight through thirteen will begin airing on February 12th at 9pm.

Friend of mine from Austin sent me his entire collection of the comics to read. Just started reading them and am loving it.

I am on #8 or 9 at this point with the other 70 to go. I was surprised how many of the scenes from the comic were duplicated almost exactly in the show.

If you didn't pick up the blu ray, Netflix has season 1 streaming.

Really? Because when I check the site, it is still disc only. And when I search through the xbox, the title comes up but it doesn't have a picture. No episodes show. Clicking 'Add to queue' doesn't do anything. And when I click play, it says "Sorry, that title is not available to watch instantly"

Not sure why it isn't up. Their Instant Streaming tweeted last night about it.

[miketheknife]

What's the twitter buzz on the word 'asshole'?

[Jammer]

Funny. My name comes up as the result.

[miketheknife]

No i mean seriously

[YEM]

Now they don't even have the show on Netflix at all. Instant view or DVD.

The only thing that comes up when you search for The Walking Dead is some 1995 movie of the same name

[Jammer]

I just tweeted back to the instant people to see what the deal is.

Also, just fired up my blu ray of the series to watch them all before season 2 starts soon!

Maybe it had to do with this..

(Reuters) - Netflix and AMC Networks Inc have signed a new licensing agreement that gives the popular streaming video service exclusive rights in the United States and Canada to the hit show "The Walking Dead."
Additionally, Netflix said on Friday the deal is for nonexclusive rights in the U.S. to some programs from AMC and its other channels, including IFC and the Sundance Channel.
Netflix already streams popular AMC shows "Mad Men" and "Breaking Bad" through its deals with Lions Gate Entertainment and Sony Pictures.
The agreement comes as Netflix tries to add content to its offerings to keep drawing in customers. While it has been striking partnerships with Discovery Communications and Dreamworks Animation of late, the company is under pressure from Hollywood studios and other programmers eager to fetch as much money as they can from Netflix.
Negotiations with Liberty Media's Starz, for example, were recently called off because the two sides could not come to terms on pricing.
On top of it, Netflix is dealing with setbacks after introducing a surprise price increase this summer that caused about 1 million customers to drop the service and the sudden move to separate its DVD-mail service from its streaming offerings.
Shares of Netflix were down 3.9 percent at $118.49 in early afternoon trade.
