To those of you snickering 'Archer' jokes at that headline, we salute you.  But nonetheless, Rick Grimes has quite a bit to rampgage about after the shocking, and heartbreaking episode of 'The Walking Dead' that capped off this Sunday, the extra-visceral "Killer Within."  Rick didn't seems to be doing to well by episode's end, so how will he deal with his emotions in next week's "Say the Word?"  And what sinister threat has Michonne discovered in the latest clip?

Usually you'll get my recap and review of The Walking Dead Monday mornings, and this week I am a day late.  I was out of town and had to DVR the show, which I then watched last night.   It's been 12 hours since I saw the episode, and I can honestly say that I am still uncomfortable about it.  Warning, shocking spoilers ahead if you aren't caught up.

Last night The Walking Dead did something pretty unconventional in a TV series.  They completely left the main ensemble out of the episode and focused on the Woodbury community and introducing us to new characters, like the fascinating Govenor.  Guess what?  It totally worked.  It was a slower paced episode, heavy on the dialogue, but nonetheless very entertaining.

The momentum continued from the first episode of season 3, picking up right where we left off.  They cart lefty (Hershel) back to their cell block and the new prisoners follow them back.  Right off the bat there was tension between dirt bag Tomas (the prison leader) and Rick.

In the past, we've heard about networks passing up some great dramas now and again, like when 'Breaking Bad' almost went to FX, before landing on AMC as the Emmy-winning bad-ass drama we all know it to be. But did you know that before AMC scored even bigger with Robert Kirkman's 'The Walking Dead,' HBO and NBC were in the market for the zombie-thriller as well? What made them pass on something that's become such a cultural phenomeon?

Last night was a long time coming.  Not only because we were waiting for season 3 to start, but we were waiting for season 3 to be good.  Everyone talks about how pacing became and issue in season 2, so I was a little worried that we wouldn't see the group get into the prison until mid season.  What a refresher that they are already inside by the end of the episode.

I can't help but be pretty excited to have my Sunday night fix back on TV.  "The Walking Dead" returns to AMC on Sunday Oct. 14th.  If you've missed season 2 and are a Netflix subscriber, the full season 2 is available to watch.  You may want a refresher anyway.  (Plus you can skip over a few of the slow paced boring farm episodes.)

For all its massive success in recent years, AMC is still somewhat in its infancy when it comes to original programming. And for every runaway hit like 'Breaking Bad,' 'Mad Men' and 'The Walking Dead,' there's a few missteps like 'The Killing,' or even recent forays into reality TV with unique efforts like 'Small Town Security.' But if you're going to emulate the major networks, might as well go for the big guns, right?  So let's see if 'Road Show,' AMC's first reality competiton can bring the heat!

Uh-oh.  It's starting to look like that time!  We're only weeks away from October 14 and the third season premiere of AMC's zombie smash 'The Walking Dead,' which means that press screeners are on their way to critics (spoiler alert: we loved them), and AMC is gearing up for the release  with official episode descriptions of the first few weeks.   So with the official synopsis of 'The Walking Dead' season 3 premiere "Seed" hitting the web, what have we learned?

SPOILER ALERT!  This last Sunday nights episode "Say My Name" of AMC's popular show Breaking Bad was a definite turning point for me.  As a viewer who has seen every episode, I've always been pulling for Walter White and Jesse.  I wanted to see them make money, I wanted to see them be successful and not get caught.  After the last episode, I hope Hank catches Walter White and he ends up crying in a jail cell.

I am thoroughly pumped up for Season 3 after this premiere.  Looks like it will promise more action, more zombie killing, and a utopia with an evil side.  Check it out for yourself!

Ok, you know I love the show Walking Dead.  I also have been getting into the show Mad Men on AMC.  What would happen if the two shows combined?  Hilarity...  Check out the video.  A pretty spot on impression of Hershel too!
