:Cheers! I hope the updated page didn't spoil anything. The second season of Survivors, I think, actually reminds me more of [[28 Days Later]] (more conflict, trying to escape bad people and find safety etc.), although I've never seen [[Stand, The|The Stand]], or the original 70's version, so I may be way off base on that comparison. Still quite a good show overall, don't really understand all the criticisms it's been labeled with. Anyway, thanks again, and I'll try to keep the page updated as much as I can. :D [[User:Chef Brian|<span style="font-size:9pt;color: #F40;background:#169;border:2px solid #333">'''Chef Brian'''</span>]][[User talk:Chef Brian|<sub style="font-size: 9pt;color:#169">''Hello!''</sub>]] 14:21, 10 April 2010 (UTC) | :Cheers!

I think the trouble is that many people are comparing it to the original and don't understand that the original isn't perfect. Actually in the case of the original I thought the first season was the strongest and the second and third seasons were weaker. Though there were some excellent episodes in the later seasons. Like the two parter in the second season where they go into London. Incidentally you aren't the first person to compare [[28 Days Later]] to Survivors. And they both have the same type of "vibe". No you didn't spoil anything for me. I've already gone to imdb and Wikipedia and read the synopsis of the episodes. I'm one of those people who reads the last chapter and then finishes the novel. Take care. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 20:19, 10 April 2010 (UTC) | |||
Revision as of 20:19, 10 April 2010
Cool, you play the Orange Box. Don't go ahead and make a Half-Life article, i want to do that. Are you by any chance from Facepunch Studios? I couldn't help noticing the "Grammar Nazi" thing in your profile. - Flying Dane
Heh, i'll leave the Half Life article to you then. Good luck with it!
Nah, I'm not from Facepunch. Although i do go there often...
Survivors
Good work on the additional screencaps. I am currently watching the show on BBC America, but I don't have HD so I can't do screencaps. When I was in the U.S. Army and stationed in Germany (1993-1996) I made friends with a really nice lady from Scotland who had the complete 70's Survivors on VHS. I watched all three seasons a couple times and thought it was a very interesting show. So when I learned that BBC America was going to be showing the new version I was excited despite all the bad things I'd heard. They are showing the first and second seasons back to back. Episode 4 of the second season will air this Tuesday. I have to say that the second season is stronger, but I don't think it's a bad show. Actually it reminds me of Stephen Kings The Stand. And it shows me what a remake of the The Stand would look like only with the supernatural aspects. Once again good work. Glad to see the page is being updated. --Jcordell 23:36, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
