You notice that deafening silence?
That's the sound of millions of Walking Dead haters finally
shutting their traps. There's really no other way for them to respond now that
AMC's zombie apocalypse series has seemingly abandoned its slower, action-less
episodes in favor of all-out human-versus-human and human-versus-walker contentions and
psychological warfare. The last half of The
Walking Dead's second
season, overseen by new showrunner Glenn Mazzara (who replaced original
shotcaller Frank Darabont), was a breathless onslaught of zombie carnage and
killed-off major characters, culminating (finally!) in the
introduction of both comic book favorite Michonne (Danai Gurira) and the
prison setting of Woodbury.
And anyone who's up on Robert
Kirkman's comic knows who's waiting to raise all kinds of sadistic hell inside
and outside Woodbury's gated walls: The Governor (Walking Dead newcomer
David Morrissey), a cold-blooded alpha male who's about to make the lives of
the hardened Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his crew exceedingly problematic. Even
more so than the hundreds of zombies crowding around Woodbury looking to rip
open some arms, legs, and other body parts. Those naysayers' traps? We're
hoping they're left agape in disbelief at what's going down on screen.
