The Walking Dead – Season 2 (mid) review

2010 on going

This series is so good that just like the zombie plague it entered the blood of the viewer so fast and made them numb to other feelings when the show is in the air. I have being eagerly watching this series from the inception. And it forced me to read the comic as well. And now I’m fan of both the TV and comic alike.

 

What’s great about Walking Dead apart from its wonderful and eerie cinematography and the mind blowing work of zombie make up is the human emotions. The story is centric towards a group of survivors led by good hearted police officer Rick Grimes and their struggle to survive in a world full of dead people who wants to eat them all day. The story is more human centric than just a plain apocalypse related thriller.

 

All these were bygones in the first season. It was filled with more thrilling episodes and somewhat fast phased story telling. When it came to Season 2 the things slowed down a bit. It becomes more human and emotional based while zombies become a bit distant. Yet on and off an ugly creature falls on their door step for the pure fun of killing it. But as the season progress it becomes stronger and steady with its main object, survival. The season 2 finale is now weeks away and already the rumors of season 3 have started to spread. And they are not just rumors but facts of new casting for few of the most demanding characters yet to appear in the show.

 

If your still not a fan of the show its time to start. There are only 2 seasons to catch up!! But be aware this is one of the most graphic shows on TV right now. And it gets uglier by the episode.
