    Yeah, but comic book fans aren't the only ones watching this show.

    Oh, I know. Just saying they were going to have a built in audience that reads comics and those people will not let continuity issues go easily.

    For the record, I'm only a viewer of the show, not comic reader. It was just a detail that stuck in my head. Not identical strokes but close enough to make me think it was an oversight on the set. Tend to think that a farm family wouldn't scrawl huge block letters on the wall, period. They'd scribble it on paper and leave that on the dining room table for whatever human survivor might stumble upon it.

    That's why I remembered the hospital warning. That seemed legit but the house thing didn't.

    They definitely went for the gross factor with that scene in the farm house. I always thought that was blood from the woman written by the man after he blew her away and before he put the gun in his mouth.

    And those people need a life. I never understand people that dig too deep into a show like that. If you just happen to notice it...fine...but there is more to life, methinks, than trying to figure out what PA wrote what on a wall in what episode.

    If you're going to do something, do it right. Attention to detail should never be downplayed, dammit. It's not community playhouse. Everyone has their nits to pick at in life. Get over people not getting over it.

    Or YOU can get over people not getting over people getting over it.

    The S and D look similar but not exact. The other same letters in both aren't that much alike. Block letters are block letters. They can get away with it being different folks different places and time.

    Just sayin'

    personally, I don't care about crap like that. It's the larger errors that bug me. I was just saying that if comic book readers are going to be part of your audience, you should be aware of such things.

    There are more important and obvious gripes with the show than the similarities in the font of hand paint by a P.A.

    I just realized this earlier tonight, but Shane played Al Capone in Night at the Museum 3.
