    Crap I'll find your thread and do it right now. I keep forgetting. You want me to include shows that are already over?

    So I just watched the pilot and it was about average. I think it has potential though. Great cast of people on it and the acting is solid. I'll give it a few more episodes.

    It's certainly a much better show to watch between BB and Talking Bad than when AMC put Comic Book Men between TWD and Talking Dead. That was just irritating. LWS is at least quality drama and not "reality" crap from Kevin Smith...

    AMC made a huge mistake putting this on after Breaking Bad

    Actually it's a pretty wise tactic on their part, if you think about it. Breaking Bad is an established show with a large fan base and currently on it's final season, so they know the viewers will be tuning in. They're more likely to stay tuned in for Low Winter Sun, AMC's new and unproven drama after viewing Breaking Bad. It also helps that Breaking Bad's talk show, Talking Bad, airs after Low Winter Sun, thus giving viewers even more of a reason to stay tuned in. It's the same plan they had when they put Comic Book Men between TWD and Talking Dead. That show just wasn't very fitting for that middle slot while Low Winter Sun is a drama and fits a bit better.

    I was talking from my perspective, I couldn't focus on it because I was thinking about Breaking Bad. I changed the channel after they showed the sneak peak for next week's episode.

    Yeah getting people to start watching is one thing, but holding their attention after watching an awesome show like Breaking Bad is another.

    I have not watched this show yet...

    AMC could invest in a 30-minute Sunday Night Drama than airing one of those reality shows. CBM is garbage including the other ones.

    On the bright side, if the shows fails, then that would free up Lennie James for a potential return to TWD.

    Morgan is much better as a recurring character imo

    He's great in that role, but I'd actually really like to see Morgan apart of Rick's group.

    Love the actors involved, but don't think I'll be watching it anymore. It's not awful, but nothing special or memorable to make me want to come back.

    Maybe, but LJ is just too good of an actor to pass up. If he is available, then the show should pounce on him.
