New 'The Walking Dead' Season 3 Trailer: Rick and Michonne, Out on Their Own?

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 04:03:03 +0000

Any fan of AMC's 'The Walking Dead' has no doubt fallen in love with the stony-silent, yet scarily competent sword-swinger Michonne (Danai Gurira), despite the relative lack of character development and interaction the survivor has been given in season 3's first half. That icy exterior will likely warm as 'The Walking Dead' launches the second half of its third season on February 10, but will Michonne be able to get along with Rick and his authoritarian approach to the survivors? And what mysterious new location might the pair be visiting in the latest trailer for 'The Walking Dead' season 3?

To those of you snickering 'Archer' jokes at that headline, we salute you. But nonetheless, Rick Grimes has quite a bit to rampgage about after the shocking, and heartbreaking episode of 'The Walking Dead' that capped off this Sunday, the extra-visceral "Killer Within."

Why Didn't HBO or NBC Want 'The Walking Dead'?

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 23:45:06 +0000

In the past, we've heard about networks passing up some great dramas now and again, like when 'Breaking Bad' almost went to FX, before landing on AMC as the Emmy-winning bad-ass drama we all know it to be.

It's hard to believe that the time is nearly upon us, and 'The Walking Dead' will shamble out the first episode of season 3 with Sunday's premiere "Seed." And as glad as we'll be to have 'The Walking Dead' back, we'll also remain on constant edge that our favorite characters will bite the big one, or rather be bitten by a big one. Show-runner Glen Mazzara certainly isn't going to pull any punches with regard to character kills, but is there one in particular we'll be seeing a bit earlier than expected?

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 17:15:49 +0000

The fall TV season might be in full swing, but fans won't be fully satisfied until October 14, when TV's biggest monster hit returns for its third season, AMC's 'The Walking Dead'! But while we know the third season will contain 16 total episodes, like the current season of 'Breaking Bad' but divided over less time, what's the holdup from AMC in greenlighting a fourth season already?
