Strike two! The Walking Dead Season 7 premiere recap

October 24, 2016 Lori Acken

So now we know, Walking Dead fans. Lucille, indeed, struck twice. Two hits for Negan. And no balls for our formerly fearless leader, Rick Grimes. STOP READING HERE IF YOU HAVE YET TO WATCH AND STEERED CLEAR OF THE TWITTER-VERSE. The barbed-wire bat’s first fatal blows — wielded by Jeffrey Dead Morgan’s cool, calculating and deeply bemused Negan — took out Sgt. Abraham Ford (farewell, Michael Cudlitz), who offered his leather-clad killer this suggestion as his skull was bashed in: “Suck. My. Nuts.” Way to go out in style, Sarge. I salute you. Negan took Abe’s kiss-off pretty well — most probably because “Red” was already […]

Fear The Walking Dead: The Group Is Splintered As Season 2 Returns

August 14, 2016 Lori Acken

For those of us still reeling from May’s (literal) barnburner of a Fear the Walking Dead midseason ender, relief is in sight.

After banishing Strand (Colman Domingo) for giving Thomas (Dougray Scott) a merciful end, Celia (Marlene Forte) and her corral of undead went up in flames, courtesy of a fed-up Madison (Kim Dickens) and a hallucinating — and now MIA — Daniel (Rubén Blades). Nick (Frank Dillane) took the loss of his spooky mentor personally […]

June 10, 2016 Barb Oates

Norman Reedus knows he has the coolest job. He gets to ride motorcycles and kill zombies, as The Walking Dead’s fan favorite — Daryl Dixon.
