In a post on Instagram on Friday, the actor who plays Daryl Dixon on AMC’s zombie apocalypse series provided an update on his condition and …
I love the post-apocalyptic and dystopian genres. If a show is set after civilisation has been destroyed, I will probably watch it if it passes the four-episode test. The post-apocalyptic TV show is a subgenre of science fiction. The world has been devastated by some cataclysmic event — nuclear war, viral outbreak, alien invasion, etc. …
The Walking Dead is adding another spinoff series to the franchise with the unlikely pairing of Maggie and Negan. Isle of the Dead is a six-episode series set in New York City and stars Lauren Cohan, who plays Maggie, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays Negan. The pair were teamed up in the final season …
I returned to AMCs The Walking Dead this year after rage quitting the show back in 2016 after watching the season six finale, Last Day on Earth. Knowing that season 11 will wrap the show and after investing six years of my life in it, I thought I’d give it another go. I’m happy to …

As fans of The Walking Dead come to terms with the reality that AMC’s long-running zombie series will end in late 2022, they can at least find some comfort in the knowledge that the Deadverse will continue with a new program devoted to two of its most beloved characters. At the start of season 10, …

The Walking Dead season 6 finale Last Day on Earth has left some fans very angry with its ridiculous cliffhanger ending and I’m one of them. I’ve waited a week to write about my feelings on the finale because I didn’t want to come over all incoherent and super ranty and I’m going to try …
Spoilers ahead for the Sleepy Hollow season 3 finale, Ragnarok. I went into the finale of Sleepy Hollow still miffed about Joe’s death wondering why the producers would rip him away from Jen like that. Little did I know I was about to have my own heart ripped out! The Mills girls deserve nice things …
I took a break from AMCs The Walking Dead after the Richonne reveal. I never saw it coming but it seemed like everyone else had been wishing, hoping and expecting it. I spent days overthinking things and wondering if we were all watching the same thing. It was a ridiculous endeavour really. I mean I’ve …
This may be an unpopular opinion but I thought Fear the Walking Dead was a bit pants so it’s great to know that its daddy, The Walking Dead, will be back on Sunday, 11 October, with a 90-minute episode titled First Time Again. The show will pick up not too long after the events from …
The last time Josh Holloway was on my TV screen he was playing high-tech intelligence operative Gabriel Vaughn in the ill-fated CBS action series, Intelligence. But he’s probably better known for his role in the Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof hit, Lost. This time Josh is teaming up with writer/producer Cuse for a new series. …

I have an on again off again relationship with The Walking Dead and this season has been a bit disappointing in places. You must know I’m excited about an episode when I put words to paper, or whatever the blogging equivalent is. The splitting of the survivors into smaller groups has been great for character …
I was gearing myself up for my self-imposed The Walking Dead marathon and decided to browse the web for titbits and insights about the show that wouldn’t spoil me (prevaricating 101). I came across this awesome video of Norman Reedus (Daryl) getting zombie pranked. Nick Santonastasso is a fan of The Walking Dead and likes …
The Walking Dead is back on Sunday 9 February to start the second half of the fourth season and I am several episodes behind. It’s time to play catch up I guess. I sound reluctant when I say that because the show has somehow lost its appeal for me. I don’t know when my relationship …
The summer TV schedule hasn’t properly started and already I’m planning my winter TV viewing. That is because CW will be airing two new shows that have captured my imagination.
