Oh, hellz yes, we are all watching ZOMBIES: A LIVING HISTORY

It's so funny, it's not funny anymore: similar to the way MTV hasn't shown music videos since 1987 or so and you can't find any actual news on any of the cable news channels anymore, they're all jam-packed with prescheduled programming...The History Channel ain't so much about history. Not for a good while, now. You used to mock it as the WWII, All the Time channel, now it's the All Antichrist, Bigfoot, and Chariots of the Gods, All the Time channel.

So zombies are popular with the kids these days so, welcome to THAT: PLUS ZOMBIES.



Is the answer to "Can you weaponize a zombie virus?" really "Surprisingly, yes?" No, of course not, what are we, kids? But who cares?



Anyway, Max Brooks and Jonathan Maberry and J.L. Bourne and Kim Paffenroth, among other zombie authors and pro geeks will be represented. And if we're all lucky, they'll trot out the Nostradamus guy from every other History channel show, who has the amazing superpower of being able to make any word in any language ever into "Hitler." Cannot wait.
