“The Walking Dead” – Series Premiere Recap
November 1, 2010 in television
AMC debuted their new zombie show, The Walking Dead, last night to take advantage of the element of fear that typically accompanies Halloween when it’s two days before an election. Having only seen the first episode, I’m going to cautiously go out on a limb and say that the channel is on the verge of achieving a long-pursued goal: year-round, worthwhile Sunday night television that rivals HBO. Of course, I’m only basing this on the ninety-minute premiere (because I’m not actually privy to advanced screenings of future episodes), but if this episode is any indication, this series could be the next X Files.
