Best Uses
Comfortable right out of the box. I've worn them almost every day since I got them, because it got warm here in the South just this past week. Great with jeans, capris, and khakis or a skirt. The strap is loose as others have said, but it can be rotated around to the back and tucked through the loop at the heel to make them slip-ons. That's how I wear them, and they look great! I like them so much, I'm back to get another pair in a different color. I purchased them in brown, and the pink details add a nice touch. Size 8 1/2 fit is just right for me.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- All day comfort
- Easy to clean
- Good for lower arches
- Great casual shoe
- Great Casual Shoes

Best Uses
- Great Shoe Overall
- Perfect for everyday wear
- Strap Is More For Style
These have become my favorite casual shoes. I got mine in slate and I can wear them with jeans, khakis, skirts and dresses. Super comfy for long walks. They are easy to break into, which is perfect if you're always on your feet. I also have low arches and these give great support. My only complaint is with the strap being unadjustable. It is loose, but the shoes still fit great. The strap is more for that cute Mary Jane look.

THE ECONOMIST, October 19, 1929. The Economist ARMAMENTS SUPPLEMENT. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1929. CONTENTS. Introduction : PAGE Comparison of Expenditure..........................................................................................1 Proposed Model Statements..........................................................................................2 Limitation of Expenditure ..........................................................................................2 Statistical Survey : Pre-war Situation..................................................................................................................3 War Charges and Budget Totals ........................................................................3 Current Armaments Expenditure .....................................................................4 Armaments and National Incomes ..................................................................5 PAGE Annexes I.-VI. : France ...................... 5 Germany ................... 6 Great Britain................ 6 Italy............................ 7 Russia......................... 7 United States of America 7 Annex VII. : World Expenditure ....... 8 ARMAMENTS EXPENDITURE OF THE WORLD. The following memorandum has been compiled by Mr. P. Jacobsen, formerly a member of the Economic Section of the Secretariat of the League of Nations, and now Secretary General to the Economic Defence Council of Sweden. The data relating to years earlier than 1909 have been drawn from various sources; and the budget figures for the years 1909-13 have been taken from the closed accounts of the respective countries, as published by the Ministries of Finance or reproduced in statistical Year-Books. The figures for post-war years have been obtained from the closed accounts or budget estimates of the various countries, official sources being used exclusively throughout. It will thus be found that the figures correspond with those given in the Armaments Year-Book (1928) published by the League of Nations. In a few cases only are more recent figures quoted. The memorandum contains material whose bearing on the work of the Preparatory Commission, on the issues which confront the forthcoming Five-Power Naval Conference, and on the general question of limitation and reduction of armaments, is of capital importance. INTRODUCTORY. The magnitude of armaments can be most easily conveyed to the non-expert by reference to the amounts of expenditure in the world's military and naval budgets. Of details concerning armed forces, equipment, stocks, tonnage, aircraft and military service he may know little or nothing; figures of expenditure are comprehensible, and can be related to other facts in which the layman is inclined to take an interest, such as the budget total, rates of taxation, etc. This being the case, the non-expert is naturally prone to employ the expenditure figures for as many purposes as possible, as they are the only data he can conveniently handle. On the other hand, the objection has often been raised that comparison on the basis of expenditure alone may give extremely misleading results, and also that limitation by means of budget restrictions would not be satisfactory. Different views on these subjects having been put forward in the course of the League's disarmament work, it was decided to investigate the matter. On the initiative of the Preparatory Commission for the Disarmament Conference an expert committee composed of members of the Financial and Economic Committees and of some other League bodies was appointed to deal with these and certain other problems. Comparison of Armaments Expenditure. The first question put to the Expert Committee was as follows: — "Can the magnitude of the armaments of the various States be compared by comparing their military expenditure, and, if so, what method should be followed?" The Committee came to the conclusion that no such general comparison could be made. Differences in military and naval organisation (voluntary army versus compulsory service), in accounting systems (gross or net budgets), and in levels of prices, salaries and wages, would rule out any direct comparisons — except in a few limited cases, as, for instance, between some Balkan States or some South American States. It would be particularly incorrect to attempt to compare the strength of the English, French and German organisations on the basis of the budget figures, without allowing for all the differences in the respective systems. The same objections do not apply to a comparison of the figures of defence expenditure from one year to another in the same country. There may, of course, be a change in prices, for which correction has to be made, but, allowing for this factor, analysis of the rise or fall of defence expenditure in a particular country reveals the tendency and development of armaments in that country better than any other method. When changes occur in defence organisations, direct numerical comparisons on the basis of men enlisted, etc., are bound to be misleading. An increase in Air Force material, for instance, may balance a reduction of the army, but a military expert would hesitate to express the fighting value of aeroplanes in terms of infantry numbers. On the other hand, as a country may be expected to get as good value as possible for money expended, comparison in terms of money is the best available criterion. Quality as distinct from quantity can, in fact, only be measured by means of the money factor. The same " tonnage " may refer to widely different naval strengths, according to the quality of the material used, the age of the ship, and so forth. As to voluntary armies, the stamp of man who enlists and the amount of instruction he receives will largely depend upon the budget provision for " pay " and " schools." Suppose that in a given voluntary army x millions are spent at present in order to obtain a certain stamp of enlisted soldier and to give him a certain degree of instruction. If a sum of 2x millions were expended, the quality of the man attracted would be higher and the instruction would be better.

Build Web-Based Apps For Android
3 Steps to Building Your Own Android App with DMXReady
Did you know that you can easily turn web-based apps into native Android apps? Web-based apps have many advantages over native apps, not least of which are time, cost, and cross-platform compatibility. Of course, you still have to program your web app but thanks to DMXReady, you dont have to code from scratch!
DMXReady helps you code it faster. Weve developed a line of ASP applications that are built with Bootstrap so theyre fully responsive, customizable, and ready to go right out of the box. Called MobileReady, this line of apps are lightweight in the coding department but heavy in the functionality, doing one thing and doing it well.
To create your own apps quickly and easily:
- Choose from our list of MobileReady apps
- Customize as needed just like you would any other DMXReady application, and upload to your Windows server (for example, you can turn MobileReady Contest Manager into ANY type of landing page app you need by modifying the open source code)
- Convert it to a native Android app
You can also convert it to iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry, and any other web-enabled device. Find out more about MobileReady, and start creating your own web-based apps!

New MobileReady Contest Manager
Contests are a great way to build customer leads, reward current customers, and keep your business or organization top of mind. The easiest are online-based contests that give them everything they need: information about what they can win, contest rules, and of course a way to enter the contest. (Here's a great Mashable article about using contests as a marketing tool.)
But most online contest software packages are SaaS requiring a subscription to a monthly service. Worse, they normally have extremely limited design and setup options. Wouldn't you love to have the power to control the look and feel of your contests AND still get all the customer leads and interaction you need?
MobileReady Contest Manager by DMXReady (see demo) makes it easier to connect with your customer base. Built with Bootstrap, it's responsive on any size screen and can easily be skinned using free or premium templates you can install quickly. Match the look and feel of your current website, or make it stand out with something completely new.
With MobileReady Contest Manager by DMXReady, you get:
More control -- whether you are setting up a contest for your own use or for a client, you can change everything from the design template to the database and code -- just like any other DMXReady application. MobileReady products are also easy to run right out of the box as a standalone application.
More cash -- You can become the "contest manager" for your own clients who want a solution but don't want to do the work. Turn your $95 piece of software into thousands of dollars of billable time running client contests for a whole new revenue stream. You can also brand the software with your own logo and sell to clients, or use it for your own business.
More options -- Ever think of designing your own Android or iPhone app? You can, with MobileReady Contest Manager by DMXReady. We'll direct you to several online tutorials to help you turn your web-based app into an Android or iPhone app for contest management software that is truly in the palm of your hand. Read more here.
Business Case for Contests
Many new businesses or even established businesses launching a new product or service love using contests because they help generate a buzz and get customer leads (emails) that they can then contact with updates and sales information. Giving away a free product or service encourages potential customers to learn more about what you're offering, which in turn leads to sales.
Contests are a great way to get your customers excited, collect customer leads, and get you noticed. Learn more here.

May 25, 2013Based on a series of graphic novels from Robert Kirkman The Walking Dead is certainly one of the most original (I know there have been lots of zombie movies but no TV show I can remember) and entertaining shows to debut in the last few years.
This first season may only be six episodes long, due to the expensive nature of the show, but it fits more action and drama into those six episodes than most shows fit into twenty. There is certainly enough blood and gore to satisfy fans of horror movies but sensibly show runner Frank Darabont has taken the decision to only follow the graphic novel storylines loosely, slowing down proceedings on occasions and allowing the characters a chance to develop themselves. In fact the only slight disappointment in this first season was the visit to the super high tech disease centre, elements of which went a little too far down the sci-fi route for comfort and losing what makes this show different. Thankfully this seems to have been an exception rather than the norm in what was a promising start to what could become a cult classic.… Expand
Mar 20, 2012A pretty solid show, Will definenty watch season 2. The huge flaw of this season is lack of episodes, It allows little developement of story lines and characters so everything is really fast paced. Its still an enjoyable show though.
Mar 6, 2011One of the best shows ever to grace the television, the characters are enjoyable, the story is great as is the acting, my only complaint is that the season finale while great wasn't the best episode, I absolutely can not wait for season 2.
Jun 24, 2014A great new zombie show, but I just wish it was longer. This is just the beginning of what will become a ratings juggernaut this show becomes and it's gets awesome
Dec 30, 2013O começo de uma das séries mais emocionantes da tv fantástica, The Walking Dead rompe todos os patamar e se estabelece com uma boa trama e ótimos personagens.
Sep 23, 2014#KillCarl Has The Walking Dead laid the inspiration for BBC zombification rendition in The Flesh? Or is it the Social Cancer (tm) of socialism drag that stalled its production into this series second airing season? There won't be a hint of a cure until latter seasons. These are zombies well-done albeit not cooked. Unfortunately there is some plot decay into Battlestar-speed (slow) plots.… Expand
Oct 9, 2013Post Apocalyptic Zombies in a Television series. It's original, and what's not to like? Well, for starters, how about, the characters. Yes, the characters. The cast of the Walking Dead is so SO unlikable that after somehow managing to struggle through the first season before I gave up on it, I was rooting for the zombies. Women like this show because of Daryl, who is a good looking actor, but a horrible character, which I guess doesn't matter. At this point, I believe the reason the Walking Dead has becoming so popular among TV watchers is for the following few reasons, 1. Other people you know watch it and you want to talk about it with them, 2. It's not afraid to kill off cast members (thank god), 3. It has Zombies, and 4. It has zombies. I challenge you to tell me, in more than 5 words what about The Walking Dead is actually deserving of positive reviews. Lets talk about the "action" element of the show. How does one kill an enemy that doesn't posses the brain power to fight back? Well... you shoot it, or you chop it's head off while it stands there. Very static. How do zombies kill you? They outnumber you. Again, static. What zombie films have that make them good, the walking dead does not. By the end of the first season, we have no idea where they came from, and the entire show is just watching unlikable characters survive and piss each other off, including the audience. 3 Stars. Barely.… Expand
Apr 18, 2011Great Show! Great Acting, Great Plots! Overall Great BUT! In A Few Ep's It Seems Kinda Boring..
Nov 26, 2010I have never watched a Zombie movie since "Night Of The Living Dead." I visited "Sean Of The Dead" briefly and had decided that this genre is strictly for teens and those with too much free time on their hands. I'm hooked on this one though. It's a grown up survivor movie with Zombies thrown in. The script is smart, the actors are all low profile enough to share the spotlight and not detract from each other's characters, and the Director is Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption; The Green Mile.) And it has Sarah Wayne Callies a fellow alumni of mine (about 36 years apart), the cutie pie Doc of "Prison Break." What I love about this series is that it never disappoints, never lags, never forgets it's main purpose: to show movie making at it's most edgily entertaining. What I get from watching this is the same thing I got from watching "Alien" the first time: transportation to another under consciousness land of Hades.… Expand
Apr 27, 2013Great first season. Very fast paced and action packed six episodes with tight excellent plotting. Thankfully, the season ended on a high note with almost no filler. Every episode counted in the overall story arc. The premise is age old and unoriginal, but the execution was impeccable. The main characters were fleshed out pretty decently. Oddly, my favorite character thus far has been the redneck with the crossbow, who always comes in handy to the group in tight spots.… Expand
Oct 19, 2013this first season of the walking dead was simply great, every episode has merits of being good, not only throughout the season but its end is great, I wanted to see what would be in that group of survivors with no goal to reach.
Aug 19, 2014Emotionally resonant, and featuring a powerful lead in Andrew Lincoln, The Walking Dead succeeds not just as a tale of apocalypse and horror, but as a character-driven survival story that ultimately refuses generic categorization from its dead inhabitants.
Oct 1, 2011Being a fan of the graphic novel series, I was not too disappointed by the series premiere of THE WALKING DEAD. The television adaptation surely wasn't as faithful as it could have been, and it took some liberties that it certainly had the right to do, but it was good, if not, great.
Apr 23, 2013Ok, so this show is by no means a 10 or a 1, it's not in the red or yellow either. This show has extremely believable qualities from acting to the effects, however it is not as hype as they say. Yeah it's good but not super. I mean Zombieland is more interesting to watch. But for hardcore fans of zombies you will really like this it's hard to get attached to any character the only time I actually felt sadden was like 3 times. The little girl turned zombie, the kid having to kill his mom while she was giving birth, when that guy was shot while they stayed at that farm. Thats it, also like the other hyped up show Pretty Little Liars these shows can be hard to watch cause they would take long times getting to a point or climax. At lease with PLL it's always giving us a since that there being watched. I have stopped watching the show. I mean I was suspended for a week and while I was at home and it was raining I saw the whole first season and thought damn thats good, then by the second episode of season 2 It got boring. My review is watch if you either like horror/zombies/or really good filming/effects. 6.5… Expand
Dec 27, 2012Besides having some annoying characters, THE WALKING DEAD Season One is top-notch television; it is scary and suspenseful and feels very real, it is also very intense as well. I will be hard for the other seasons to top the brilliance that this introductory season offered.
Feb 3, 2012With top notch performances from Andrew Lincoln, Jon Bernthal, Laurie Holden, Sarah Wayne Callies and Norman Reedus, what's not to love about The Walking Dead? Due to a great ensemble cast and some of the best writers and directors in the game (most of them are responsible for writing and directing for some of the best shows on television, including: Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, The Wire, The Shield, Rescue Me, and Sons of Anarchy) The Walking Dead has became a mega-hit and due to a large fan base (Although some of you don't appreciate the Walking Dead's brilliance as much as others) a rating's juggernaut.… Expand
Mar 13, 2013Rarely does a show start off with such a bang. The Pilot is near-perfect showcase of the potential greatness of this show. While the subsequent episodes aren't as good, the final episode is an emotional rollercoaster and wraps the season up nicely. 8.5/10
Oct 31, 2010I was a bit skeptical before the premiere but now I am sold. It's truly amazing how AMC continues to come up with such great series that pretty much put the big networks to shame. This series shows great promise. Watching this premiere was like watching a high production movie, but in a good way. Definitely hope it gets renewed for a second season if it hasn't yet.
Feb 26, 2013I did not want to get into AMC's The Walking Dead, because it is what a like to call, addictive television. I try to avoid shows like this, but I was at a friend house the other week and there were a group of people watching it, so I really didn't have a choice and I got sucked into it's grip. The reason I don't like to watch shows like this is because it's based on a book, which usually means, the show is amazing and very well written until they reach the end of the book and have to come up with new stuff on their own. At that point, the quality of the story quickly diminishes and the show either gets boring or goes way over the top. As I watched the first two seasons of The Walking Dead over the course of a couple weeks, I found that the same was true for it. The first season was an absolute delight and I hated the fact that it was only six episodes. The second season started out pretty good also, but that's when the book must have ended and things changed. This powerful, exciting show became extremely predictable, with every episode featuring about forty minutes of talking and five minutes of action. So, if I was so turned off by it at that point, why am I watching the new episodes right now? Addictive television! Now that I know the characters and their stories I want answers to the same four questions as everyone else. Who is fighting with who, who is having sex with who, how will the story end, and the big one, who lives and who dies. Similar to soap operas, shows like the Walking Dead, for the most part, aren't well written, are extremely predictable, and don't really develop much after the initial impact. I didn't see a single episode in the second or third season that I enjoyed as much as I did every episode from season 1. I am nevertheless invested in the show and what happens now, and to be honest it's not that it's a bad show. I really like Sarah Wayne Callies from Prison Break and Norman Reedus's character is the one guy who really evolved into someone who fascinates me. The action scenes, as well as the effects are terrific, and they do have a pretty talented cast. It's my hope that as it continues to gain popularity, that the writers turn to other sources, perhaps the author of the book or even some fan fiction for alternative ideas on how to keep things fresh and interesting, because right now, aside from the question of who lives and who dies, there isn't much there to attract new viewers to the show. If you like dark stories, horror, and end of the world type fiction, I'd give the show a try, but if you're a newbie whose thinking about getting into the Walking Dead, I warn you, the first season is amazing and will suck you in, but after that, as of yet, it hasn't gotten any better.… Expand
Apr 19, 2014Awesome season. I couldn't stop watching. There's plenty of drama and action to satisfy everyone. The acting is fantastic and the story is awesome. One fight scene was obviously fake and I didn't like the script at times, but I had no other problems with this.
Oct 7, 2013It's a fun show. It's got everything you want from a zombie show; sorrow, brutal violence, great characters and attachment. It's a good show. The show that everyone will talk about in 30 years besides Breaking Bad.
Sep 13, 2013This first season in a nutshell has been very good, but with some ups and downs, I really liked the pilot episode, my favorite characters are Rick and Morgan, the series deviates much from the comic in which they are based, but I can not deny that have excellent makeup to characterize the zombies out excellent highlight Noah Emmerich as Dr. Edwin Jenner.
Oct 31, 2010The best zombie apocalypse TV show so far. In the vein of Romero's "Dawn of the Dead" (large quantities of slow-walking, entropy-like zombies, destroy the brain, don't get bit or scratched); very graphic, but mostly very serious (questions of race, gender, humanity under stress...), emotional, played straight and not afraid of slow, quiet moments. These are thinking person's zombies and all hail AMC for another excellent series for adults. This and "Rubicon" should be getting some Emmies.… Expand
Dec 1, 2010AMC Originals is damn good TV and I can see this one going very far. I saw the first episode on Halloween and I had no idea it was a pilot to a new series. What a surprise! That was so cool - always been a big fan of the zombie movies. I hope that they can go the distance with such a complicated premise for a show. So far with only a few episodes they're off to an amazing start.
Mar 30, 2012Even though its only seven episodes (7). season 1 was a great season. it gives us the tactics on how to survive a zombie apocalypse. Instant classic
Feb 9, 2014The series got off to a stellar start! The pilot was absolutely perfectly done. The show also know how to strike a good blend between character development and amazing gory violence. So far so good.
Nov 29, 2012I am SHOCKED that anyone has anything bad to say about this show - and I am a VERY critical person when it comes to television. The first season of this show has action and heart, and something sorely missing in modern storytelling - a hero. There's plenty of action and gore, heartfelt moments and incredible storytelling and character development, and incredible graphics that seamlessly mix old world prosthetics and makeup with new world CGI, There is not a single weak link in the incredible ensemble.cast. The storytellers who are writing the plot keep things just twisty enough so you never know what will happen next - but not so twisty that you can't easily keep track of what's going on. The only reason this first season has a 9 instead of a 10 is that there are a lot of characters to keep track of, and in only 6 episodes, you don't have quite enough time to get really attached. Keep up the good work, Walking Dead!!!… Expand
Nov 5, 2013An amazing show about survival & zombies to be exact. Very emotional and it is hard to stop watching when your glued in. Not as good as Breaking Bad but it's a special show.
Jun 17, 2011Amazing, and there is no other way to put it. The Walking Dead is easily the best dramatic show on TV. It gets actual human emotions from a strong ensemble and great writing. This TV show manages to be both better then all non-Romero zombie movies, and it manages to be more dramatic then most other dramas. I honestly was starting to feel bad for the walkers, doomed to there horrible fate. This show, unlike most zombie movies, has likable characters that you really feel for. One of the top 5 shows on TV.… Expand
Sep 1, 2013The First Season of amc's the walking dead, blew me away, i was so surprised when i first sat down and watched the first episode i honestly wasn't expecting anything like this: A zombie drama that focuses more on the survivors and how they cope with the changing of their environment, The first season of the walking dead was so good, the Past was good, the action was great, the first episode was amazing followed by 6 other will down episodes, AMC's the Walking Dead is truly worth your time. FINAL VERDICT 10/10… Expand
Sep 29, 2013Saw this show a while ago, ad just decided to write a review for this season. Brilliant writing and acting all around. Very well paced, and unlike a lot of recent zombie shows/movies, there are some genuinely scary scenes. The season was amazing and I was instantly hooked.
Nov 20, 2010The Walking Dead is not spoiled with Hollywood's glamorous charm. This show is a gritty, nasty zombie experience that will turn you into the said species as you watch the story unfold on your devil box.
Oct 15, 2013The Walking Dead não traz grandes surpresas, e não se diferencia de outras obras com tema zumbis, a não ser pelo formado serie, e ai que a exigências aumentam. Para prender o telespectador a trama tem que ter muitos ganchos e sub temas atrativos e aqui isso não acontece, seguindo uma unica linha narrativa a trama se prende demais a estética zumbi e deixa a narração de lado.
Oct 19, 2013The first part of the season is a well crafted, almost shot-for-shot adaptation of the original graphic novel. The second half strays away but maintains the excitement and terror you'd very much expect from a zombie apocalypse.
Nov 4, 2014I will start off by saying no character is safe from being killed and I won't go past that because I don't want to have any spoilers. This is one of the best TV shows that I've watched in a long time, but I will say that some episodes and particularly one season(I won't say anything else) gets quite boring. You start off with all this action and killing and then in one of the seasons it slows down drastically. A few of the episodes I had to actually make myself watch, along with an episode in the current season. With that being said I still give this show a 9 because the overall aspect of the show is a great one. It's always interesting to watch and you won't be disappointed if you take the time to watch it.… Expand
Oct 26, 2014It's a respectable start for an ambitious adaptation. It's a brutal, bone breaking, bonanza. The sets are impressively detailed as are the brilliantly realistic (in want of a better word) walkers. The show is mainly let down when it becomes clear that it's characters are not as strong as say those in Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. We are however let into a post apocalyptic 'zombie' world that actually feels real.… Expand
Jan 21, 2011Man, that pilot is one of the best things I saw on TV last year, but then, it went downhill after that. I feel a bit conflicted because there are some things I really love about this show, the atmosphere, mood, etc. but on the other hand its filled with clichéd dialogue, contrived situations, shoddy accents and acting, so overall I feel disappointed with it. I really think that the show can only go up from here, now with a new writing staff hopefully they'll address these issue and if not, well, it did have an awesome pilot.… Expand
Dec 20, 2011I just dont see what people see in this, I dont. Once again the short season doesnt allow for any real development in the show's story. It doesnt help that it takes far too long to get into as well. Also the show is rather generic and isnt all that interesting. The acting is ok and the production value is great but the show just doesnt hit with me.
Mar 11, 2012AMC's The Walking Dead is an adaptation of the comic series of the same name, about a group of survivors in the zombie apocalypse. Being a giant fan of the comics, I watched the show, and I actually didn't mind it for a couple episodes. But the farther the show goes on, the more pacing problems it gets and the more obnoxious my favorite characters would become, if they even showed up at all. Tyreese and Michonne are nowhere to be seen. Instead, we're given the generic redneck Daryl and the EXTREMELY stereotyped token black character T-Dog. Seriously. His name is T-Dog.
The second season definitely drags on, even though it barely touches on any actual plot from the comics. They spend about 8 episodes trying to find Sophia, a girl who went missing and (Spoilers) is a zombie. The sad part is Sophia is alive and well in the comics, nothing bad actually happens to her. The same is to be said with Shane's death, which was much more emotional in the comics, considering Carl is the one who actually kills human Shane to save his father's life. The choice to instead have Rick stab Shane was a waste of good material.
The more and more I watch this show, the more and more I find myself no longer caring about the characters. They do dumb things, and someone dies. And I don't care. They aren't the characters I love anymore. They're annoying whiny people. Eventually, you'll find yourself rooting for the zombies.… Expand
Nov 24, 2010The cinematography is amazing, the music is amazing, the actors are good, the plot is amazing, the atmosphere is very well crafted, and the general tone of the show is very well done. Do not miss The Walking Dead.
May 19, 2011The Zombie genre is something has been worn out time and time again but thankfully AMC's The Walking Dead is nothing short of sensational! Following a zombie apocalypse a group of survivors led by Rick Grimes are travelling across a desolate Americain the search for a safety however the dead are now coming back to life and danger awaits them around every corner. An engaging, stimulating and intense debut season that will have you hooked right from the start. Incredibly well paced in showing the atmosphere of a bleak and deserted America and also to develope each character enabling the audience to connect with them. Acting on show is fantastic and the story has been been wonderfully written. The only criticism I have is it is a mere 6 episodes! However, its 6 hours of quality stuff. Bring on Season 2!… Expand
Jun 22, 2011the show had a very promising beginning. and I had hopes for it, but after a few episodes it started to become quite boring, and it lacks the good acting and depth of shows like breaking bad or mad men.
Jan 27, 2013Can there be a QUALITY show with loads of violence featuring zombies? You'll know that answer when you watch The Walking Dead. I fell in love almost immediately. Solid characters and great pacing really elevate the show.
Nov 6, 2010This is by far the best show on television right now. It has movie quality acting, special effects, and storyline. It's basically an epic movie that amc is showing an hour of every week.
May 11, 2013A very good start to the series. I'll take the first episode, as my favorite so far of the season. Without a doubt the best series of Zombies that can be found on television.
Mar 5, 2012I can't stand people hating this for no reason, this is one of the best shows i have ever seen. No one, and i repeat no one have ever done this before, getting the whole zombie apocalypse plot and putting it together for a TV show with such brilliance is just amazing. I wasn't sure i'll ever watch this show but i did somehow just to see if i like it and since then i am a big fan. This show is brilliantly paced and acted with many scenes that gives you heart stopping thrills and chills. The good thing is that it is written perfectly so it doesn't comes off as a cheap show with Zombies and all. Just brilliant.… Expand
Dec 14, 2012With season 1, the Walking Dead set itself up as a show far different then almost anything else on television. Though it had its share of hokey moments, the suspense that was built was truly remarkable. Great dialogue, wonderful acting, and an interesting plot all made this one of my favorite shows of all time.
Nov 2, 2010It definitely had me staring at the screen instead of my computer, especially the end scene in the city. I'm excited for the rest of this show, and glad there's a zombie tv show, and it's actually very good. You don't really know the characters too much yet, but I feel like we will find ourselves caring about them quite a bit. I mean, it is AMC, and they tend to do shows well. If only I didn't have to wait...… Expand
Feb 16, 2014Obviously one of the greatest horror shows on television, The Walking Dead had enough bloody zombie violence (Which most of us came to watch) to keep up entertained but over time the popular series becomes more of a drama that has declined from it's original state and eventually cause me to lose interest around mid-season 3.
Nov 14, 2010Ok, I take it back. The second episode is lots better. I am glad I gave it a try. I like that there is a woman with a brain (the African American woman who worked for the zoning department.)
Nov 22, 2010What could be more entertaining than watching a show about zombies? The answer is nothing. The characters are developed extremely well, and the core of the show is a dark and lonely tone, with everyone who hasn't been bitten by the infected people coming together to survive. Simplicity is a trend I have noticed in 2010, and the show creators create one of the most interesting and WTF? shows of the year.… Expand
May 14, 2012Yes yes we at the internet love zombies but the show needs more of them. The first season was great but with the exception of the first and last two episodes of season two it was terrible. except the episodes I mentioned each episodes is just people walking around saying "what do you think about so and so" then that person goes to another person and they say "what do you think about so and so" then they kill a single zombie and the show is over. If they continue as they ended the season this should could be really great.… Expand
Nov 21, 2013The Walking Dead is scary, thrilling and bloody brilliant. The acting is great, and the special effects are mesmerizing. TWD makes us realize that horror can be this effective and scary. While not as good as Breaking Bad, TWD has a good story, interesting characters such as Glenn and Rick with the awesome Dale, it makes its spot for an awesome tv show this season.
Jun 16, 2013I loved it but it was really sad that it was only six episodes? Truly disappointed. What surprised me was that from even the first season some people die. Really liked it. It keeps you interest for the next season. Extraorrdinary
Nov 2, 2010I'm not a fan of the horror genre but was pretty impressed by this show. Well acted, well-directed, well-written but could afford to move along at a little bit faster pace. More gore than I think I've ever seen on a basic cable show too. Looking forward to upcoming episodes and hope they utilize the twists and turns in the writing that AMC shows are known for.
Nov 17, 2010This must be the best show of the year! The Walking Dead is based upon the brilliant comic book and isn't afraid to veer off from the original comic and change things up a bit. I like this, because it allows us to see this storyline and these characters in a different way to the comics. Directed by Frank Darabont and produced by Gale Anne Hurd, this show has some pedigree. Every week is like a mini-movie, and done exceptionley well like a movie. If there was only 1 show for me to recommend this year, let alone this decade, it's be The Walking Dead… Expand
Jul 22, 2012Being a fan of the comics I had to see the series. Its nothing like the comics except for characters, guys waking up in a hospital and other stuff. But it still is great on how they do it``(sometimes even better then the comic). Despite its not like the comic, this is a great tv show. The Walking Dead: Season 1 8.6/10
May 7, 2012Another post Apocalyptic series. Nothing original or creative in this series. I still watch the series due to its story but its just another one next to the others. If you watched Resident Evil before, then this is like the TV series of it. The Walking Dead is a decent show but the hype is ridiculous.
Feb 24, 2013Brilliant TV show. I did not start watching it until late in 2012 and was very surprised at how good it is. Interesting characters, well-crafted setting, the zombies look great. Plenty of human drama to complement the action.
Apr 7, 2013The setting of the show is amazing the world is coming to an end and humanity is on the verge of returning to the Stone Age and becoming an agrarian economy. Zombies are decimating the world population I mean what was not to like!
What surprised me was how the writers of the show managed to achieve the feat of making every character so unlikeable and pedestrian and as a consequence the series boring. The show fails remarkably in creating a dystopia. The post-apocalyptic vision the show captures is so mundane it was a struggle for me to sit through the six episodes of Season 1. The only good bits were the terrific visual effects.
I'm going to fast forward to Season 3 and set up a scene for you A car is zipping across what is a deserted highway, brown leaves strewn on the road, you can tell the place has seen its share of carnage. One of the occupants of the car is our Hero, Rick Grimes. As the car races across the Road a solitary young man carrying a huge backpack appears and at first frantically urges the car to stop then begs and pleads with them to take pity on him and help him. There isn't even a discussion by the occupants whether they should stop or not they just keep going. On the way back they cross the same patch of the Road. You can see there's fresh blood on the gravel guts sprayed across the tarmac. There's a dead body on the road it's the same guy who wanted to be rescued desperately. The car crosses the Dead body or what's left of it and as if as an afterthought the driver brings the car to a halt few metres ahead and pauses, then puts the car in reverse it comes to a stop next to the back pack. Somebody picks it up and they'r on their way again. Not a word is exchanged during all this. After all what is there to be said, characters are past debating the morality of such actions self-preservation now precedes everything and even 10 year old boys do horrible things not out of malice but out of necessity. And it's not just Zombies that Humanity has to contend with it's the danger they pose each other too, fighting over what are now quickly depleting resources. It's moments like these that are flat our brilliant and for once you do believe the apocalypse is upon our planet. The problem is scenes such are these aren't too frequent and that I believe is what's now keeping it from becoming a cinematic achievement, but the show has improved considerably since early days and I believe now finally it's hands down the best series ever created against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic earth. Random thought would have been great to see someone adapt 'World War Z' into a TV series I know it is not going to happen. The movie Trilogy will be great 6- 8 hours of entertainment nonetheless, delivered over a course of three years.
I felt nothing for the characters in 'The Walking Dead' even mid-way through season 2 and stopped watching after the 5th episode. But I'm glad I gave it another chance last week (couldn't sleep, decided I'd watch one more episode and perhaps see why the US of A was so fixated on how amazing it really was, I ended up watching right through to the end of Season 3). It gets better during the latter half of the second season and the third season is when the show finally sets out to become what is should have been in the first place a chilling tale of survival on a doomed planet (YES, I took the trouble to think real hard and come up with the most hackneyed cliché to describe it). Like me, if you hated the show early on even though you were a fan of the genre and wanted to like the show, I'd recommend you give it another shot and stay with it a while you will not be disappointed unless you don't like Zombie genre all together, if that is the case then I doubt you'll find any merit at all in this tale.
I can't wait to see where they'll be taking it come Season 4 because NO, I don't read comic books so I don't know what the story has in store for us.… Expand
Apr 28, 2011Initially, I thought this show would just be another generic zombie show. However, it is actually quite a masterpiece of interesting characterization, dialogue, and action. Another great AMC production (on-par with Breaking Bad).
Feb 4, 2012Somebody pinch me. I honestly think i'm dreaming because never in a million years would I think a successful zombie-themed television show be on the air. The Walking Dead is based on a series of comic books of the same name that are written by Robert Kirkman after first being published in 2003. This show has essential features from many other great TV programs, books and films. The acting is on par for some of the best presently on the small screen. One drawback is how short the first season is with only six episodes.… Collapse
Feb 1, 2012HI. I watched this since it first came on tv. I thought it was great. The action was good. The writing was decent, not great. The acting in the first episode was ok and from there it just went downhill. After 2-3 episodes, I felt the actors weren't even trying to hook us into the story. I had to give it a five for the action and writing, but the acting, to me, just killed it.
Oct 21, 2012By far, one of the best shows on currently on cable, season one of 'The Walking Dead' manages to bring out the vibrant characters, set pieces, and palpable tension of the graphic novels, while not loosing the appeal in the transition to the medium of TV. Week after week we may find ourselves returning, not solely for the promise of zombies and gore (which are delivered in spades here, by the way), but for the lived-in, realistic drama of these troubled characters and their plights. Its a shame that the vast dramatic territory explored through the post-apocalyptic universe hasn't been charted yet (if it has, it hasn't been given justice apparently), and The Walking Dead makes for a great argument for the continuation of the horror genre. A great show that should please everyone (save for the squeamish, maybe).… Expand
Sep 28, 2012This is easily one of the best shows on TV. People who don't like this usually complain that zombies are not in it enough. This show is not about the zombies. If you read the comics, or watched the show you get that The Walking Dead refers to the people who are alive more than the zombies themselves. They are doing nothing, but postponing their inevitable demise. This is a show about people in a post apocalyptic world, and it does such and excellent job of showing the changes that occur in people when something like this happen. If you are not a fan of gore, then it might be hard to watch, but if you are willing to close your eyes every now and then to miss a head being smashed in, then by all means watch it. This is a MUST watch.… Expand
Oct 21, 2012The comic (and the episodic game, for that matter) are better. 100%. Any fan of the show should check out the comic and is missing out if they haven't. That said, I do LIKE the show (so far, after seeing Season 1). There are some really interesting new ideas, like what happens in the Season finale and how some of the stuff plays out differently. Not all the changes are for the best though. The pacing is really off, especially the first episode (which is weaker than the rest of the Season, overall), Shane really isn't interesting enough to become a main character, that I definitely found regrettable. And even that which they took from the comics... well, some of the hammy acting actually makes the unfortunate awkward idiosyncracies of Kirkman's writing show, rather than highlighting how strong it can be at times. But despite these complaints, the show is enjoyable. A zombie apocalypse is rife with the kind of ongoing human drama that can sustain a series and I'm surprised that it hasn't been done before. So, despite its flaws (and it is flawed), the show ends up being really unique and worth a watch, although I would recommend the comic universe as the superior "Walking Dead" media.… Expand
Mar 26, 2013I watched the pilot, and I loved it. It had suspense and it felt post apocalyptic and you think "What the hell went on here!?" When you see burnt out cars, rotting corpses and ruined helicopters.
Next episode It went from Fringe standards all the way down to Falling Skies standard. The writing & acting is just terrible, I felt like I was watching some low budget slasher film. And the visuals and production values of the entire show look terrible and rushed, like I said, B class. The CDC explosion looked like it was done by Asylum (seriously? can't use practical effects?) and the blood splatter mostly consist of crappy, cartoonish green screened blood. A lot of potential has been missed with this completely crap fest, seriously don't understand how it has gotten universal acclaim with both critics & users.… Expand
Mar 24, 2013This show is truly intense in every standard. Thrills, suspense, drama, etc. It may not be so much a scary show, but you have to admit, it's one hell of a show. The zombies may be what makes the show suspensefull, but watching the people have to fight amongst each other not only shows great drama, but even thrills. Especially in season 3. I mean, watching the Governor being his bad, villanous self is what really brings in the thrills. I can't to see how season 3 will end. Overall, it's a tremendous zombie show. Truly TV's greatest thrilller.… Expand
Dec 7, 2013Zombie aren't the sexiest creatures to date, at which they do live up to their name "The Walking Dead". The post-apocalyptic setting has been a overused figure, although this time around it stand out of the pack. This series is a great accomplishment being dynamic and engaging with it's far shares of scare-fest points -who's turning the doorknob?!- it's definitely extremely bloody, as zombie guts splatter all over the place like chunky borscht. Zombies fans will be impressed raring for more!… Expand
Sep 24, 2013Amazing show! It has everything a zombie apocalypse show should have! The acting is outstanding and has an amazing storyline. It has you on edge always worried about each character and what is about to happen to the group next. Some episodes have even made me cry! Amazing! I'm going to write this for all 3 season because they all truly are brilliant! No complaints!
Nov 18, 2010Who wouldn't want to watch 28 Days Later as a series on TV? As I waited for the show, I really hoped they would make it work, because a large dose of well-done zombies is hard to get. We have 6 episodes this season, which equates to about 3 movies. Well done.
May 4, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Something I normally do when I watch a sort of disaster show or movie is to put myself in all of the characters shoes and normally I always do something that the people in the show never think of but with this show it gives you I real task to think of what to do, weather its deciding on shooting your wife, because she is a zombie obviously not just because she throw out all of my playboy magazines but enough of my personal problems! The only problem with the show is that the characters problems are just extremely boring and you dont care if some **** is cheating on her husband who she thinks is dead.… Expand
Jan 24, 2012A really well made show that feels more like a movie than a TV show. The make-up, acting, and direction all work together beautifully. Making a TV show where you care about the characters and what happens to them goes a long way.
Nov 28, 2012A really good show but other shows are better i do like the killings and action and ppl dying but some of the characters are annoying as shotttttttttt
Jan 16, 2013This show blows. How did they cancel Rubicon and renew this crap? Seriously. WTF. What is so exciting about Zombies? And my zombie loving friends, say there's less than 5 min of zombies in each episode anyway. Trash.
Nov 10, 2010The walking dead is a series that has lots of drama, zombies, and some social commentary. It also focueses on he human spirit to a degree, highlighting the trails that many of us would face in a survival situation. It also has moments of genius (i.e. how characters solve problems in unconventional ways). However, the shows loses steam with it's long, drawn out season opener, which took far too long to establish characters and setting. It also loses steam from having too many instances of characters having long winded conversations with each other regarding nothing. It's not a good sign when you have to fast forward through the episode to get to good parts.
Overall, this is pretty good show; albeit, it has it's drawbacks.… Expand
Nov 15, 2010I had high hopes, but the characters are just too stupid to root for. The only time these slow moving zombies would be a threat is when you're trapped by them. So once they showed people having access to vehicles all danger has to be manufactured by dumb plot devices (imitating zombies to sneak by), or stupid character decisions (riding a freakin' horse). The only way this series would've worked would be with 28 Days Later fast moving zombies. Damn, it looked so cool in the previews.… Expand
Jun 24, 2011I am a zombie kind of guy. I love the genre, even the pseudo zombie films like Resident Evil and 28 Days Later. Some are cheesy and enjoyable in their own right while others are marvelous. I am perhaps a "heretic" by saying that the remake of Dawn of the Dead was so much better than the original yet I think the original NoTLD is still the best. With Walking Dead I kind of had spoilers going in because I had read the Kirkman books, but I was also apprehensive. When I heard a TV show was being developed I thought okay showtime or HBO, because they will be the only ones that can pull off the REQUIRED headshots, so I was worried that AMC had it. Not their rep for quality, just the reality of their audience. But wow, its gorgeous, and it had done a heck of a good job staying faithful to the source material. In the books the zombies are NOT in every frame, in fact they are ultimately secondary participants, and the fact that the show has followed this same blueprint is what makes the show superior. If the show continues keeps faith with the source, even if only 50%, we have some great television coming. Romero build the genre and the rules that go with it, but the Walking Dead will be looked upon as DEFINING the genre.… Expand
Oct 27, 2012This is one of the two best shows on TV. This first season was great and it keeps getting better & better. The 3rd season is starting off to be a hell of a ride. I dont know what some of these reviewers are talking about not caring about the characters; I like the show because of the character development! I was not into watching TV shows every week until I got into The Walking Dead & Breaking Bad. These shows are like having 30+ hour movies!… Expand
Dec 26, 2012I enjoyed the 1st season, I watched it n dvd and when a series makes you want to start the next episode back to back then that must be a good indicator that you are hooked and entertainment level is high, definitely one the best apocalypse genre I've seen on TV, wish they spent more time on flashbacks though.
Jul 11, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. That series sucks. Why? The story is so artificial and cliche.
- First at episode 2, just when they are passing the walkers starts rain. Just when cant rain. You watch 20 episodies, and never rain!
- At episode 4, the fight with the others is without reason, is stupid. At same episode the final is so dramatic too. The walkers are more slow than my grandmother, then the girls stop and waits to be bitten. She dont defend her self, and start scream after bite.
- Mille cut of his hand to escape? Oh my god, that was so original! I doubt that a saw can cut off a hand but cant cut the link of the handcuff.
- Most episodes have much pointless drama, like a soap opera. Is note a action series, is a drama novel.
- The car stolen, the sport one. Is that true, just go there and steal? The gas is ok? The batteries too?
To me, after play last of us, stories like that is pointless and artificial. Like i said, is a dramatic novel for ladies, a soap.… Expand
Nov 1, 2010I was really expecting something cheesy. I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Hope future episodes are as good or better. Looking forward to next weeks episode.
Mar 8, 2012Disappointing! I liked the show until it went WAY off track from the comics. I understand the show cannot and should not follow the comics exactly, but the comics are popular for a reason. Killing off some of the most crucial, interesting characters while keeping others that barely utter a sentence is just poor writing. The zombies are the only character that have any real motivation and consistently follow through with it. Talk about ruining a good thing. These writers are simply going for easy shock value making the show just as crap as the other shows soon to be canceled. Good riddance.… Expand
Nov 6, 2011Episode 1 was amazing!!! The end of the world atmosphere was captured, watching it took me into this world... I wanted more and more! Starting from episode 2 to 6 was alittle of a disappointment, it felt like it was Soap opera with a touch of zombies to get the action going. But, overall it was a very good show. I became a fan of "The walking dead"!!
Jan 6, 2014I'm not sure if you can find a better example of adapting source material like the Comics for TWD in any genre. This is quintessentially perfect, and incredibly re-watchable even after 3 years it still is something I'll go back to and continually watch.
Jan 8, 2013Simplistic and brilliantly crafted. Excellent character development and the acting is top notch. The only points against it are the slow pacing and the fact that Laurie is the most annoying character ever conceived on television.
Mar 21, 2012if you say you hate the show you are lying through your teeth, even a zombie hater cant hate this serial drama, it can stand alone on its own merit, unlike most media adaptations based on interpreted source material.
Dec 28, 2012This series, is absolutely amazing, it challenges you intellectually, and can affect you as a person. The acting is great, and the cinematography is amazing, as an aspiring film director and actor myself, this show has been greatly useful. I'd like to use a quote from someone else's review: 'the survivors' ultimate plan: bore the zombies death by spending two-thirds of every episode discussing their feelings.' What else would you suppose they do? Have a party in the middle of the street, then all of them die and the series is one episode long? These reviewers are ridiculous and have no idea what a good TV series is.… Expand
Sep 19, 2012A diamond in the rough; one of the few shows that uses fantasy amazingly as a background to explore the complex human nature and their reactions to horrifying and post-apocalyptic events, whilst still maintaining a dose of suspense and gory head-smashing action that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
With never-ending drama, deaths, emotions, friendships and intense adventures, The Walking Dead really is a show for everyone's taste.… Expand
Feb 19, 2013People who negative most think Jersey Shore is a well produced... otherwise they need glasses and hearing aids.
This show is the BEST thing on Network TV, if you think otherwise good for you, but coming here to leave 0's when you prob saw one episode without watching the rest does nothing for people who want to watch it from the beginning you scumbags.
Aug 21, 2013Moderately entertaining. Season one is the only season that I found worth watching. The dialogue is too cheesy (pilot episode about women leaving the lights on for an example). The characters are really boring and don't show much emotion. Rick Grimes is not a good lead protagonist. Other shows have Walter White, Tyrion Lannister, or Tony Soprano. This has boring Rick Grimes who is surrounded by other boring characters. The show isn't scary either, and it hardly has zombies in it! The coolest parts of the show are with the zombies, and they aren't on screen that often. The pacing is dreadfully slow as well. Season two is when I was done with the show as they spent the entire season at a farm. Watch the first season, but I can't recommend that you watch anything past that.… Expand
Feb 17, 2014When I see "critically acclaimed" and then see 3 seasons of emptiness with zombies, I have to wonder, who are this critics...
The Walking Dead is probably one of the worst series I managed to keep watching, why? Because it has zombies and everyone likes a survivalist zombie story, so I keep watching it hoping that it will improve, but then I saw the first episode of season 4, and nothing changed.
They don't look like people, they look like zombies, they are that empty, the best characters are those who fall into the cliche category, because at least they are something.
The amount of nonsense is just staggering. The decisions of the group are so stupid and ridiculous it makes me facepalm constantly. An example, character X goes on a supply run which is expected to last a day, character Y for absolutely no reason decides that after 1 hour, 1 hour!!! that someone should go see if character X is alright, OMG! The problem is that this nonsense is prevalent through all the seasons.
Learning Curve:
The characters have no learning curve, they are just as stupid as they were in the very first episode, they keep doing the most ridiculous mistakes over and over again.
More nonsense:
The world is almost empty of survivors, yet, they can't find a damn good car, they keep using 70's cars instead of, I don't know... maybe some bad ass HUMV? Maybe a truck? Anything that isn't the worst possible choice please?
And more nonsense:
Yes let's use old bolt action rifles, because in the USA, one of the most armed countries in the world, there's no better solutions, national guard is gone, everything is gone, but there's no good weapons, the cookie monster took them away and ate them. In all fairness this improved in the last season.
The slowest and dumbest zombies ever made, its just amazing how the characters over-complicate everything. And then there's the magic zombies who all of a sudden show up from nowhere.
And even more nonsense:
You have an entire forest, where there's a small pack of zombies moving through. You are "cloaked" from them, they can't smell you and they are going the same route as you are. Apparently there's two choices, you go through any other forest path, or you go into the middle of the horde and go with them. What would you chose? Be in the middle of a horde of flesh eating monsters or not? The characters in this series seem to think that being in the center of the horde is the most viable and sane choice.
This series really took a new step into the realm of silliness, there's no story, no characters, no learning, no evolution, no horror, no fear, no empathy, absolutely no realism at all. There's very little to like, acting is ok, scenarios are fine, and that's pretty much it.… Expand
Jun 24, 2014This is the only consistent season of The Walking Dead. Frank Darabont's involvement was a huge boost and the series has never fully recovered from it. The only problem is in the 6 episodes not much is resolved. Also some of the acting was off at points.
Nov 23, 2014Where to start? Terrible writing? Terrible special effects? Terrible videography? Terrible editing? Yeah, I guess what zombies will deliver to television: Death to creativity. BTW, the notion that no-nothing 20-somethings will save you from anything requiring a knowledge of how the world actually works is a totally loopy idea!
Sep 26, 2014Even if you don't want to dedicate thirty-eight hours to watching a TV show, just watch The Walking Dead Season 1. It's short, it's kinda sweet in a dark way, and it is six epic episodes that work as a stand-alone story.
This season stays true to the comics, has all the excitement without the bore of season 2, and in my mind is just a really long, really awesome movie.
Nov 29, 2010I just don't get it how a show LIKE this can get 85% metascore..... The show focus too much on violence,blood, bad language and nudity... I don't care about any character. Because there are no like-able characters. Not even the protagonist. All the characters do is swearing or talking bad about women (or hitting them on 4th episode) I almost vomit when i was watching the 2nd episode , when they were taking the guts out of a zombie... DISGUSTING. And the show is not scary at all. Resident evil movies are far better than this. 0 score for me. i stopped watching after the 4th episode..… Expand
Sep 28, 2012Been playing the game and then I was hooked after first episode season one. Watched the entire first season in 24 hours. This is one of the better zombie shows, even better than 28 Days Later. It's really good!
Darabont uses the TV-series format to break convention not only by defying the predictabilities of the horror genre (boo!) but also by infusing the recipe with more storytelling elan.
I was encouraged that the character-driven third episode was stronger than the zombie action-heavy second, and perhaps the producers will be proven right--that the longer this saga goes on past these initial six episodes, the more it will set itself apart from the zombie canon.
The Walking Dead, like any good horror tale, still believes in the importance of monsters, perfectly balancing the struggle of basic human decency with those palsied four-in-the-morning moments when we are convinced that everyone around us is trying to eat us alive

When water mains break, blast is possibly catastrophic
WTOP's Max Smith
Max Smith, wtop.com
UPDATED - Saturday - 3/24/2013, 6:45pm ET
WASHINGTON - Water restrictions in place for customers in Montgomery and Prince George's counties were lifted late Saturday afternoon.
The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission announced the end of the restrictions just before 6 p.m. after repairs to a 60-inch water main were completed. The line is back in service and the water quality is good, said Jim Neustadt, WSSC spokesman.
The massive line burst Monday night in Chevy Chase and release 60 million gallons of waters. The water service asked customers to conserve water by limiting laundry loads and taking short showers to allow the system to recover from the loss of water and to ensure proper supply to hospitals and fire hydrants.
"We just want to say thank you to everybody for doing what they can to conserve and our regrets about all the inconveniences that we caused everybody," Neustadt said.
Crews replaced a 20-foot section of the water main. Although the repairs to the pipes are complete, WSSC said in a statement that restoring the area near the broken main will take weeks.
Additional work will be needed to restore the road, sidewalk and nearby stream bed plus remove damaged trees. The remaining work will also require that the far right northbound lane on Connecticut Avenue to remain closed.
"It's going to take a long time weeks, maybe months, to completely repair the area and the creek and the bed around the creek. Because there was a lot damage done by that water, that 60 million gallons that came out of there," Neustadt said.
Officials still don't know what caused the break.
"A forensic analysis is underway and will include experts outside of WSSC. It may take several months to have results," the service said in a statement.
EARLIER - Friday - 3/22/2013, 3:58pm ET
WASHINGTON - There may have been some warning signs before a 5-foot water main burst in Chevy Chase this week.
The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, or WSSC, says after receiving calls about water bubbling up in the area surrounding the break, an inspector was sent out about six hours before the main burst. That inspector, and a crew that came out an hour later, found what appeared to be a leaking valve.
That valve is connected to a 24-inch pipe attached to the larger main. The valve sits in a valve vault just a few feet from the site of the break. They decided they would come back and fix it the next day.
It is not clear whether the apparent leak is related to the eventual break.
The large main does have fiber optic cables designed to detect early signs of a break so that repairs can be made, but that system apparently did not send significant warnings ahead of time in this case.
"People have to realize that we don't have a control system where lights flash every time something happens, and we do rely on people calling from the outside," WSSC spokesman I.J. Hudson says.
A replacement section of pipe is now in place, and WSSC workers were flushing the main on Friday as part of a final step to clean it.
Hudson says water restrictions for WSSC customers will be lifted when the pipe is back up and running, which he expects to happen "sometime this weekend."
The replacement pipe includes the fiber optic system.
"A fiber optic cable running down the line with sensors, and what the sensors listen for is the snap of these pre-stressed wires that are in this style of pipe, which is called PCCP," Hudson explains.
Hudson says it will take up to two months for an investigation to determine the causes of this break.
"We're doing what we can - the monitoring system [is] important, our inspection program is important," Hudson says.
"For the last four or five years, we have stepped up the frequency of inspection of these larger pipes to about an average between 5 and 7 years for these pipes, and when we do these inspections, we find things."
In some instances, the pipe has to be replaced.
WSSC replaces about 55 miles of water main pipe each year at a cost of about $1.4 million per mile. The system has about 5600 miles of pipes.
The pipe is similar to one that burst along River Road in 2008.
WSSC has proposed pushing new buildings farther back from large water mains, in order to mitigate the risk of a catastrophic burst.

We've seen a lot of iOS-compatible speaker docks over the years. JBL has created a little standout with its OnBeat Air Wireless Speaker Dock.
For one thing, it looks very cool. It's hard to believe that sound can come out of that little component. It looks like it's nestling the portable, right? Another nice option is that JBL has included AirPlay in the dock—so you really don't need to dock anything! With Apple AirPlay built in, users can stream iTunes from any networked PC or Mac, as well as any music through an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch.
Today, Woot is getting the OnBeat Air Wireless Speaker Dock out to the masses, with a very nice deal. For today only (Tuesday, July 17, 2012), Woot is discounting this dock so that it's only $99.99. Shipping isn't included on this one, and that will cost you about $5. However, this discount is $200 off the list price.
Besides the AirPlay goodies, the OnBeat Air Wireless Speaker Dock can deliver sound from any iPod, iPhone and iPad devices, all while charging up that portable in portrait or landscape mode. Other features include built-in WiFi, a frequency response of 70Hz – 20kHz, and dual JBL Phoenix full-range transducers with computer-optimized DSP equalization.
If you want to snag one for the bedroom, the kids or the office, you'd better click quickly. Remember that this is a Woot deal, which means that the discount will end today (Tuesday, July 17, 2012) or whenever the retailer runs out of stock.
