Today's episode was good and I like the new characters. Something about this episode felt different, though. I didn't feel the same suspense that I felt last week. I don't know, but it could be the incredible amount of commercials. The amount of commercials for this episode felt ridiculous! It felt like there were more commercials than any of the other episodes. Is it just me that feels this way?

They are just exploiting the fame of the show in order to get more ad revenue. I find it annoying too.

'The Walking Dead' renewed for third season by AMC

AMC has renewed The Walking Dead for a third season.

The second season of the zombie drama premiered earlier this month, attracting record cable ratings for the network.

On Tuesday, AMC's president Charlie Collier announced that the series will return for a third season.

"Today we are pleased to announce that the 'dead' shall live as we proudly renew The Walking Dead for a third season," said Collier.

He continued: "We are thankful for everyone's contribution in front of and behind the camera as we continue to make The Walking Dead a unique television experience. And, we are so proud as it continues to set viewership records around the world."

In March, it was reported that horror writer Stephen King was in talks to pen an episode of the zombie drama.

However, The Walking Dead's Gale Ann Hurd has said that King is unlikely to script an episode in the near future.

Series star Andrew Lincoln previously revealed that he is excited about the possibility of working with King.

The Walking Dead continues on Sundays at 9/8c on AMC in the US, and airs on Fridays at 10pm on FX in the UK.

Sorry for formatting i just copied and pasted it.

This is excellent news because I think Season 2 is going to be a slow burner going off the comics, gives them time to flesh out some of the good story arcs from the comics.

I think they picked the wrong stuff from the comics to start Season 2.

If you guys think the first two episodes are boring I dont think youll find the first half of the season interesting if they follow the comics.

which is probably why I am not going to watch it religiously each week...probably store them up and then watch when I have time to kill or its raining outside

So far I am really loving season 2, the only thing is in the first episode the main character said that the CDC guy said something to him before the building blew up but it was not important, so that was a bit frustrating but other then that it is one of my favorites series bar-none

+marcel we are only 2 episodes in, give it time. most of the actors are not big name ones anyways. writing wise, I think its pretty good, sure there have been some stupid moments like the water jug incident in the 1st episode. otherwise what else are you expecting, I have always felt that the writing is very real world like

Being bitten by a zombie doesn't turn you into one. You could die from a heart attack and reanimate.

you think that's it?

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By snowy owl · Posted

      I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
    • Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs

      Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs by Sayan Sen While Microsoft has been trying to improve it, Windows 11 is definitely not flawless, as even today some issues are taking a year to publicly acknowledge. However, one area of trouble that may finally see much better results soon is graphics driver crashes. Work on graphics driver timeouts, also called Timeout and Detection Recovery (TDR), is not new as the latest WDDM 3.2 also has specific improvements regarding it. Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version 3.2 is supported on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. However, with the upcoming version 26H2, TDR crash diagnosis could go to the next level as Microsoft is introducing a new DirectX 12 API feature called "DirectX Dump Files". Similar to how system memory dump files work when a system crashes or freezes or encounters any such major issue, DirectX Dump Files (DDF) will essentially record a snapshot of the GPU execution right at the moment a graphics-related crash or hang or freeze occurs, so that developers can better understand and diagnoze these TDR and timeout detection errors. The dump will be available as a .dxdmp file for analysis and it will be a comprehensive dump file generated with detailed insights about the hardware, drivers, Windows, as well as the affected application. This should be another welcome change in this department. Earlier at GDC 2026, when the technology was first debuted, Microsoft had shared more details regarding it. The company had explained how DDF is designed to gather data from every layer of the graphics stack into a single file, eliminating the need for developers to manually correlate logs from multiple tools. As mentioned above, the dump can contain a lot of useful details like GPU hardware state information such as register values, shader program counters, page fault virtual addresses, shader memory data, and command buffers. Alongside that, it also captures DirectX runtime and kernel information, including D3D objects, pipeline state objects, device error data, adapter details, and CPU call stacks. Microsoft says the feature has been built around two primary use cases: retail device removals and local device removals. The former allows developers to collect crash information from end users' systems in the field, while the latter helps QA teams and developers investigate issues on test machines. Developers will also be able to include up to 2 MB of custom application data through new D3D12 APIs, providing additional context for troubleshooting. In addition, Microsoft is introducing three dump collection modes ranging from zero-overhead capture, which has no runtime performance impact on supported hardware, to higher-detail modes that collect more vendor-specific debugging data. On compatible Tier 2 hardware, zero-overhead dumps will be enabled by default, meaning developers may begin receiving useful crash diagnostics without making any code changes. The table below explains the three tiers: Tier Description NO_OVERHEAD Enables crash capture with no runtime cost and is suitable for broad deployment MEDIUM_OVERHEAD Provides a balance, capturing additional diagnostic data with moderate impact HIGH_OVERHEAD Collects the most detailed GPU and driver state available, enabling deeper investigation at the cost of higher runtime overhead In terms of availability, the company expects broader release to be around the fall of 2026, which should be right around the time when Windows 11 version 26H2 lands. Right now, DirectX Dump Files are available as a preview and currently, only AMD has the compatible AgilitySDK Developer Preview driver version 26.10.07.02. You can find the official announcement post here on Microsoft's website.
