2. Tom Savini should be given any role he requests

He was great in "From Dusk Till Dawn," and I enjoyed his "Night Of The Living Dead" remake, where he played the "Yeah, they're dead...they're all messed up" sheriff.

I haven't read the "Walking Dead" comics, and I've only recently had cable again, so I am playing catch-up on the series. My thoughts regarding last night's episode was that they have REALLY tapped into the George Romero mojo. The scene where Lori wakes up in the flipped car, I felt, answered all of the "critics" who thought Season II was "too slow"...same for the Rick / Hershel / Glenn showdown with the friends of the two guys they just killed and the swarm of "walkers" that joins in.

When a "celebrity" joins a crap show to boost its ratings, that's one thing. But "walking Dead" is on a real peak, and if Savini showed up, it would be KILLER (no pun intended).
