The Walking Dead (2010)
The original review: it was supposed to be one of the major horror events in recent years, but unfortunately, it was bitter disappointment. Darabont failed to look after the project and, instead of a proper zombie carnage and tense dramatic events, we got lots of lifeless chatter among unlikeable characters. Only the pilot episode is worth some attention. Hopefully, something (anything!) will happen in the second season. Update 2016: I stopped watching the series early in the second season, but I’ve returned to it and watched it in the course of several weeks. The short first season turned out to be the initial flaw in something beautiful. What hurt it the most was that it didn’t have time to get anything proper going and you couldn’t bond with the characters. Fortunately, that gradually improves in the second season and the unexpected deaths of (even popular) characters begin to hurt. The best season for me is the third (thanks to the strong antagonist, the Governor), and then the fifth (the hopelessness of the first half and the drastic change of the situation during the second). Unfortunately, the latest season, the sixth, is a bit worse. I didn’t like some of the questionable decisions characters make that get them in trouble through their own fault, the incomprehensible screenwriting of some of the characters (WFT Carol?!) and that every new character that a little interesting doesn’t survive for more than a couple of episodes (there’ve been at least three deaths this season that really pissed me off, because they could have developed those characters much better).
