Review : The Walking Dead Season 2 part 1

From time to time on this blog , I Will be talking about a show I watch and review the season. This time its The Walking Dead season 2 part 1.

now for those of you who are waiting for the DVD or Netflix and you don't want to know , move on , cause I'm a tellin. :).


The season starts off with our gang on a highway. the highway is littered with cars , trucks , vans , campers and the gang decides to check out the cars for things they need. then they notice the zombies coming and instead of picking them off one by one the leader , Rick , tells everyone to get under the cars and not to make a sound. This is all fine and good until a little girl named Sophia runs off in fear , into the woods. Rick goes after her , finds her and tells her to find a place to hide and he'll come find her. And so for the next six episodes , the group goes looking for Sophia. and during that first search , Rick's son , Carl , who is about the same age as Sophia , gets shot by a hunter while looking at a deer. the hunter didn't see Carl and the hunter takes Rick and Carl back to his farm that's owned by a veterinarian and the vet takes care of Carl but he needs some things at a makeshift camp that's at the local school. the only problem is that its filled with walkers. the hunter knows where the school is at and the hunter and Shane , who was a cop buddy with Rick before all this happened , goes to the school grabs the stuff , and tries to get get out of the school where they corner them selves in to getting out of a window in the gym. then the two run to the truck and the walkers are on their tail . the hunter is a pretty big guy , but is moving just as fast as Shane who is in pretty good shape. Shane ,in his psycho selfishness , shoots the hunter so he could get away and get the meds back to the vet so he can save Carl. this drives Shane to shave off his hair. the vet has a daughter and she goes and tells the gang how to get to the ranch. the gang gets to the ranch and makes camp. the vet at first doesn't mind that they stay because of the boy , but once the boy is better then they need to go. one of the gang , Glenn , starts to have feelings for the vets daughter and one day while they go into town , they go to a pharmacy to get supplys and just decide to do it there around isle 4. he begins to like her and she does too and she gives him a note to pick a spot anywhere on the farm. he decides the barn. he goes to the barn. at night and hears strange noises . There are a bunch of walkers locked up in the barn. turns out that some of their family is in there and they are holding them until a cure happens. then the camp finds out and Shane in psycho selfishness , who can barely open the barn door , lets them out and starts shooting them one after one while the vet and the daughter see their family , even though thier zombies , die in front of them. and after several weeks , the last person to come out of the barn is Sophia who is now a zombie and it's Rick that puts her down.

I really like this this show. it's always moving the story forward. it's a show you really cant take seriously due to the situations and the soap opera elements. Doesn't mean that its not great entertainment and well written. I like how Shane is a selfish psycho. he could be a normal psycho but they added that element where you go that was the right thing he did then you look at the big picture and you go he selfish. After all ,he did leave Rick in the hospital bed. Now the question is when does Rick shoot Shane?. The question is never because he will push another one in the group too far . That question is who?.
