The Walking Dead Episode 6: ..............good ending?

Episode 6 came to an end last night but was this episode made before the news of a second season came out or made with the hope of a second season because right up until the end it was its usual depressing self with the group having a brief moment of happiness believing they were safe,access to food and alcohol,hot water and maybe a cure or an answer to the plague.All they got was bad news,hangovers,an explanation of the plague and no cure as of yet,Shane being a killjoy and making a move on Lori, the facility turning into a crematorium,Dr.Jenner whispering something to Rick and elaborating the plague had gone worldwide.Not all the group escapes or wants to and even then some had to be blackmailed to leave.
What I am saying if there was no second season  then this wasn't such a good ending but maybe thats just me.
The Walking Dead poster I have here seemingly is referencing the characters in the Walking Dead to the Lost characters which I have never watched...yet.

The Walking Dead: Episode 5...........depressingly good.

This episode shows the group emotionally falling to pieces after the attack,Rick is trying to contact Morgan,Shane and others blame Rick for leaving them to find Merle(if he had been there maybe things wouldn't have gone so bad,Andrea and her sister(good scene),Shane with Rick in his sights,darrel and his pickaxe,the difference between survivor dead and zombie dead,Jim getting bitten and the group dealing with this,the group splitting up,CDC or Fort Benning, the end scene at the CDC is a moment in its self and what is Project Wildfire?
This is a bleak,grim,sad but excellent episode and shows the survivors at their worst and best when things hit rock bottom.

The Walking Dead: Episode 4.............good again.

After the severed hand is found in Atlanta the group search for Merle when they run into another gang of survivors, Glenn gets kidnapped and one of the other gang falls into the hands of our survivors which leads to some tense negotiations for the guns(which have been recovered along with Ricks hat).back at the camp Jim has gone a little weird(digging multiple holes)and ends up tied to a tree.The negotiations for Glenn are sorted out as the other survivors are doing some good work despite appearances and some guns are shared much to Daryls digust(still a great character) but their van is missing and believe Merle is heading back to camp for revenge.Back at camp things are good(a lot of fish had been caught that morning by the sisters), Jim is released and feeling better and food is been eaten and beers are been drunk when the attack comes from approx 20+ zombies,things are tense when Rick and the rest turn up and finish them off but not before several survivors are down and dead.
Not a bad episode with some good zombie action, thinning out of some survivors, I relate myself more to Daryl but Rick is the man.

The Walking Dead: Episode 3........good but only just.

The 3rd episode covers the reunion between Rick and his family and best friend Shane and the greatest problem during a zombie holocaust, other survivors.Apart from the introduction of a new character Daryl Dixon(very good) brother of Merle left on the roof,there is nothing but whining, physical abuse, recriminations,bartering and threats(all legitimate problems when people are forced together during difficult times).The episode ends with the attempt to free Merle on the roof but even that goes bad and only 2 zombies in the whole episode.I am starting not to care about many of the characters in the series and if that is what they are trying to show they are doing a good job

As I said when the apocalypse comes stick to yourself and family until you know better.

The Walking Dead: Episode 2..............still good.

Episode 2 last night, shorter episode, lots more zombies(some showing the skills seen in the zombies in the movie Land of the Dead), the zombies appear quicker(some of them anyway), lot of new characters(good and bad), plenty of gore(especially the axe and disgiuse scene), all in all still good but not as good as the opener and the breaks didn't help but still looing forward to next episode.
