The Walking Dead Gets Boring

The Walking Dead a television series that started out with bang but come second season it is sleep walking itself and its viewers towards certain cancellation. Yeah, I said it. The second season opener and follow second show were how do I put it nicely – boring as hell. I am not the only one who thinks so either. I’ve asked my friends who watched the first season and they agree – way too much drama and drama that is misplaced at that. For AMC a network that brought us the pulse-pounding Breaking Bad seems ready to allow this one to get away.

The people behind the Walking Dead better have some big things planned for the rest of the season because the torment of parents has been worked to death in every disaster movie. Even the zombies in the last two episodes were weak – especially the ‘herd’. Someone didn’t do enough coaching of the extras before setting them loose and the makeup people didn’t check behind the ears or necks so we see glaring color changes in the makeup as the zombies stroll by the camera – just sloppy for a show with such a budget.

So far this season the Walking Dead can be summed up as – Walking us towards bed.
