This is a popular zombie series in France.
Its going to be on the Sundance Channel on Halloween and A&E picked it up and plans to make an American version.

In a small mountain town, many dead people reappear, apparently alive and normal: road accident victim teenager Camille; suicidal bridegroom Simon; "Victor", a small boy who was murdered by burglars; and Serge, a serial killer. They try to resume their lives as strange phenomena occur: amongst recurring power outages, the water level of the dam mysteriously lowers, revealing the presence of dead animals and a church steeple, and strange marks appear on the bodies of the living and the dead.

Me either other than watching a bunch of "The Returned" commercials while watching Sundance. I'm going to check it out tho.

As much as I like the show, I really can't recommend watching it right now. The first season was great but the finale leaves you with a bunch of questions and wanting more. The second season won't air until next November.
