Zombies, the latest in primetime TV fashion.

The brain-eating living dead are now shambling their way over to The CW, which is developing a script for The Awakening, about two sisters who face off against each other just as the zombie apocalypse kicks in.

The project is written by William Laurin and Glenn Davis (The Listener) and comes on the heels of NBC developing Zombies vs. Vampires (which, of course, follows the success of AMC’s The Walking Dead — I know, October can’t come soon enough!).



Can you ever have too many Zombies?

I have a feeling nothing will top The Walking Dead.

I cannot wait for next season. It definitely helps they are following a published and well-established (and hyped) storyline, versus simply writing a brand new story to try and cash in on our interests.

And.. Zombies vs. Vampires? Really? Shit that just sounds terrible.

I'll watch True Blood, and I'll watch The Walking Dead, but there is no way I'll watch the two themes combined. Plus, with it coming from NBC, and having that conflict of themes, it's sure to be devastating.

The CW? Is it a teen drama involving zombies?

A lot of people seemed to like The Walking Dead but I didn't think it was anything special. Only reason why I even watched it was cus of the zombies.

Sorry, this just seems doomed to fail.

It's on the CW as well... 'nuff said.

So it looks like NBC will continue to not have a show that cracks the top 25 outside of football.

Ugh. Zombies + Vampires + NBC = Feces. That show will last 2 episodes.

The CW show might actually have some promise though, I will have to check it out.

Supernatural is on the CW, if they can make it with equal quality to that show it should be acceptable, being that it's about zombies.

If a zombie bites a vampire, will the vampire die and become a zombie?
