Posted on December 6, 2010 by dfstell

What’s Good: How about that grenade?!?!  Didn’t we just know that would show up again? I’ll go ahead and give the obligatory SPOILER warning because it is hard to discuss what I liked about this episode without getting into the main “shocking” event of the episode.

Posted on November 29, 2010 by dfstell

The Walking Dead Episode #1 – Review
