    True. I know someone who doesn't even want to watch the upcoming episode promos because they want to see the entire episode without even seeing the smallest scenes. Yet, these type of previews are all over TV and the internet so someone like that has to be particularly careful.

    What I find strange this season though is that AMC has put out very different sneak peeks for the US and internationally. The international ones have been much more revealing than the ones we get here. Then they seem surprised when this stuff comes back around to the American audience and we see the videos pulled from Youtube. Odd.

    I appreciate the conversation letting me know that Sneak Peeks are not short, 30-second previews that reveal nothing. I've learned a valuable lesson not to click on the vids whether they are labeled are not. Thanks for the schooling.

    No harm, no foul.

    [MENTION=2866]Komodia[/MENTION] & [MENTION=13931]SZQ[/MENTION], It doesn't require spoiler tags since the title of the thread states Sneak peek and this video is a TV commercial for the next episode from AMC..

    A sneak peek is always going to give you additional information..

    It's a TV commercial? How can you tell?
    I mean, I just don't see how AMC would want to play one 90 second scene such as this as a commercial.
    Do you have a source for this? Like a video without subtitles and with the AMC/TWD splash screen?

    Despite any likely sarcasm AMC does release these around 2 minute sneak peeks every week. They have been doing it the entire time. Sneak Peek is the proper official term. 30 seconds can show the same stuff.

    My post was sincere. I have never seen the 2-minute sneak peeks before this one.

    Additional information doesn't necessarily mean spoiler. Its the context of that information. Even if you read articles about an episode that hasn't aired they'll warn the readers that it may contain spoilers. I don't get why people have such a hard time of being polite and adding a simple spoiler tag if others have felt this contains too much of spoiler information.

    If you don't want to know additional information, don't click on the sneak peeks..

    Of course sneak peeks are going to have what you consider spoilers, but what everyone else considers as a teaser trailer..

    They usually come out with them a couple days before the new episode airs. Its usually a video of the part of the episode that come on before the intro.

    If you click on something that says sneak peek and then get upset that you saw something you didn't want to see....

    You're an idiot.

    That is all.
