T-Dog might be loosely based on Tyrese, but they aren't the same by the sound of his character. Tyrese came with his daughter and her boyfriend and was an Alpha male leader. He and Rick were the two leaders of the group. T-Dog only resembles him in that he's black. They might have made T-Dog instead of Tyrese so they didn't have 2 main leaders of the group since Shane stuck around for so long in the series. Plus too many characters probably would get confusing.Ster wrote:T-Dog is Tyrese in the comic series.

Actually, I think they spit Tyrese into T-Dog, Shane and Daryl. In the Comics, Tyrese was a major character. He was the other Alpha Male with Rick. Kinda like what shane was earlier in the TV series. He was black like T-Dog and also T-Dog was using a clawhammer in earlier episodes on TV. The clawhammer was Tyrese weapon that he used in the comic books. Tyrese had a love affair with Carol that was later interrupted by Michonne.duramax wrote:T-Dog might be loosely based on Tyrese, but they aren't the same by the sound of his character.

If you have netflix, the first season (only 6 episodes) is on there. Second season is a lot better though.gator wrote:i watched the last three episodes just b/c of this post........i'm freakin HOOKED. was telling chuckles the other day that i actually read a few of the comic books when i was a wee lad....my parents found them and chunked em.
watched the damn show three times last night while i started on "gunslinger" - another benefit of this thread.
the cloaked, ninja sword wielding, zombie on a choker totin' chick was bad to the bone......can't wait for next year and gonna have to get the blueray boxed set to catch up.

First season was not that good in my opinion. I have read the comics. As usual the written version is always better than a film adaptation, but it is a good series.gator wrote:i watched the last three episodes just b/c of this post........i'm freakin HOOKED. was telling chuckles the other day that i actually read a few of the comic books when i was a wee lad....my parents found them and chunked em.

The shooting is more unbelievable than the zombie thing.Ster wrote:Of course, while I am rolling my eyes and making comments such as how unbelievable that is, I have to remind myself I am watching a show centered around zombies roaming the earth.
In the comics, was it the same in that everyone had the disease, and you would turn when you die?fieldt76 wrote:I guess I was right about everyone having the disease, I'll try to not let it go to my head...
