AMC's The Walking Dead

I'm so glad this show is back.

 

Pretty solid first 15 minutes.

 

Now that was pretty sweet.

 

Good episode. It sets up the rest of the season well.

 

And you got your wish. Strong episode. I kept waiting for one of the walkers to come back to life and kill Andrea while she rode in the back of the truck.

Oh, and will someone wipe the condescending, smarmy look off Dale's face? Thanks.

 

Man, I fucking love this show. Strong stuff. I'd like to throw in some spoilers but I'll wait. I'll just say that A) I love Rick and B) Shane is the best, most complicated character on the show.

You may agree or disagree with Shane's actions, but it's hard to say he's "wrong." He might not be what you want him to be in a world that is complete shit, but he's not necessarily wrong about anything. Whatsisname is a damn fine TV actor, which is not something I ever would have thought after seeing him on that show "The Class" or whatever it was.

 

I really hope the zombies eat Rick's wife. I'm sick of her character.

 

Rick is a badass. No doubt about that. I wouldn't say Shane is right about everything, but he certainly isn't a flat-out bad guy.

 

Agreed. He comes off in the context of the show as the "bad guy," but it's not so simple. And that's what I like about the show. They're exploring the shades of gray, and I think we saw some of the "gray" in Rick tonight.

 

The episode title, "Nebraska," was fucking brilliant.

 

I love how they mention the episode title at least once in the show.

 

It's hardly the only show to do that. I don't mind it as long as it's not too revealing.
