I'm enjoying this series so far and just learned that it's based off of the comic book, The Walking Dead. I hope that sometime soon in the storyline we'll learn about what caused this deterioration of normal human beings.Until then, I'll sit back and enjoy a nice little zombie action on my Sunday evenings.

I dug the first six episodes. It was a breath of fresh air from the stupid zomedies that have become a dime a dozen.

More The Walking Dead: The Complete... reviews
Those of you who have read my review on the pilot episode (see my review here) of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” know that I was real impressed with the opening act. My hopes for a really engaging zombie survival-horror series was elevated that I followed the series on a weekly basis (yes, even my dates revolved around me viewing the latest episode from the DVR). The live action series was so successful that AMC is now committed to another 13 episodes for season 2. … more

In a small town in Georgia, Sheriff Deputy Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), is seriously injured during a shoot out with bandits. He's soon hospitalized and eventually slips into a coma. He reawakens and finds his town completely out of order from what he remembers, with scores of dead bodies wrapped in white sheets, plus the hospital appearing as if a small war was waged. He encounters a father and son who explains to him that the dead has risen, and they're eating the living. … more

THE WALKING DEAD I have been reading the comic since it was released and that is no lie. I am a big fan of zombies in any format mainly because my brother is literally scared of them. I can't help it but I love it. So when I first that the comic was being turned into a series I was super excited. I had always believed that this would be the right format for such a grand story. If this was made into a feature film there is no way it could fit … more

While preparing to watch the second season, I decided to rewatch this again. Fortunately, my original feelings are still the same and I find this to still be a gripping experience. The Walking Dead manages to deliver where it counts and gets so many things right. The characters are well developed to the point you care about where they're going, plus it maintains a consistent tone freeing it from the usual zombie comedy bullshit you been seeing like wild fire for like the last 7 years; with exceptional … more

The great first season was six episodes long with each paced very well and surprisingly kept in tact what the comic was about. That of course is the humans and not the zombies; it really is a character driven story. I knew with Frank Darabont on board this would be made right. He did a great job here has I really enjoyed this show, from TV all the way to DVD/Blu-Ray.

You know, I've got to say that I'm fairly impressed with this TV series so far. The show, which airs on basic cable channel AMC is pretty edgy and at times extremely gruesome. However, what makes this particular take on the zombie and post-apocalyptic sub-genres so entertaining and so engaging is that it's very much a character-driven series. Drama, horror, and science fiction collide this gritty adaptation of the comic book series of the same name. Highly recommended viewing for the … more

About the Show:
Waking up in an empty hospital after weeks in a coma, County Sheriff Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) finds himself utterly alone. The world as he knows it is gone, ravaged by a zombie epidemic. The Walking Dead tells the story of the weeks and months that follow after the apocalypse. Based on Robert Kirkman's hugely successful and popular comic book series, AMC's new original series, The Walking Dead, premieres with a 90-minute episode on Halloween night: Oct. 31 at 10/9c. Written and executive produced by three-time Academy® Award-nominee Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile), who also directs the pilot, and executive produced by Gale Anne Hurd (The Terminator, Aliens), the series debuts during AMC Fearfest, the network's annual blockbuster marathon of thriller and horror films.
The Walking Dead is an epic, edge-of-your-seat drama where personal struggles are magnified against a backdrop of moment-to-moment survival. A survivalist story at its core, the series explores how the living are changed by the overwhelming realization that those who survive can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth. They themselves have become the walking dead.
Shot on location in Atlanta, The Walking Dead is led by a cast that includes Lincoln (Teachers, Love Actually) as Rick Grimes, Jon Bernthal (The Pacific, The Ghost Writer) as Shane Walsh, Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break) as Lori Grimes, Laurie Holden (The ...
