The Walking Dead Season 2 Premier


It is finally upon us, season two of The Walking Dead!! I have been waiting for this for a long time. I had to wait until now to watch it since I have been busy.

Synopsis: We last left the group after the CDC exploded. The group is now heading towards Fort Benning. The RV breaks down on a freeway and the group looks through what is left behind for supplies they need. A heard of zombies comes through and the groups hides under the cars for safety. A few close calls,but everyone makes it. Sofia is chased by a walker and gets lost in the woods. The group keeps busying looking through the cars and moving cars off the road, while Rick, Daryl, and Glenn go looking for Sofia.

Shane tells Lori that he plans on leaving the group, which only complicates their relationship even more. We see even more issues with the group with Andrea, Dale and Shane over her gun and who is allowed to have a gun. The next day most of the group goes looking for Sofia, with Daryl leading. While looking the hear church bells, the make their way towards a church, and find zombies inside. The guys kill them quick and once again they hear bells, which is a speaker on a timer.

Andrea overhears Lori and Shane talking about Shane leaving. She asks Shane to allow her to come with him, because neither one of them belongs in the group. Rick seems to loose faith in himself after loosing Sofia. The group splits up and Lori confronts them all for blaming Rick for the outcomes and that they can go on their own if they want to.

The episode ends, when someone fires a gun at a deer Rick, Shane and Carl and goes through the deer and into Carl.

Opinion: For a season opening, it wasn't too bad. It really wasn't anything special, but I did like that Daryl had some decent moments/lines. He's stepping up to the plate you could say. There's probably more backstory to him going to come out is my guess, with what I noticed. While the beginning was great, the middle was just flat and the ending a crappy cliffhanger. I forgot the problems members of the group were having with each other so when they came up in this episode I had to remind myself. So they could have done more, I have to say 30 minutes looking for Sofia seemed a bit much. I hope they're not going to be looking for her the rest of the season, that would just be a drag.

Overall, it was decent.

By the way this is my 100th post!!!
