100 years from now, there will be military labs around the world pushing out hundreds of millions of miniature drones. When the end truly comes for humanity I have a sneaking suspicion it will have been designed by man rather than a force of nature or God.
I believe in 28 days later and 28 weeks later, the catastrophe was created by people experimenting on animals. The origin of disease in Walking Dead isn't specified, but I believe it can only be something similarly created in a lab.
I had a chance to watch episodes 1 and 2 back to back today. I really enjoyed it, I'm a huge fan of the original series.
What I love most about this show is that it's not all about surviving the Walkers (zombies, whatever ..), it's about how the people have to still deal with basic survival and fights with other survivors that go bad.
If you haven't caught "The Strain" yet, I recommend it.
My wife and I are big zombie show watchers, and we find the characters in Fear Of The Walking Dead to be almost forcibly naive to the situation at hand. So we pretty much spend 30 minutes of the show yelling the following statements at the TV
What are you DOING!?!
Are you serious?!?!
GO...GO!!!
Who does that??
The head!!! SHOOT THE HEAD!!!
Why won't you kill it!??!!?
RUNNNNNNNNN!!!!!
