Series overview
The Walking Dead tells the story of the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse; it follows a small group of survivors, traveling across the desolate United States in search of a new home away from the shuffling hordes of the undead (or "walkers"). The plot is focused primarily on the human element of a post-apocalyptic world and the way the struggling human race survives. The group is led by Rick Grimes, who was a sheriff's deputy in a small Georgia town before the zombie outbreak. As their situation grows more hazardous, the group's desperation to survive pushes them to the brink of insanity. At every turn they are faced with the unbearable horrors that come from having the dead walk again, the changing dynamic of their group, as well as facing hostility from the scattered remains of a struggling human populace who are focused on their own survival, now that the structures of global society have collapsed.
Season 2 (2011–2012)
The second season premiered on October 16, 2011 and will feature 13 episodes.[4][5] At a 2011 Paley Center for Media panel,[6] it was announced that the second season will feature Grimes' group of survivors leaving Atlanta for the countryside, including the Greene family farm, a setting in the comic book series.[7] Filming of season 2 began in June 2011 in the greater Atlanta area.[8] Prior to the start of season 2, a 6-part webisode series aired October 3, 2011 on AMC's website. The webisodes detail the events just when the outbreak began, specifically the life of Hannah, also known as "bicycle girl", who appeared in the first episode of the series.[9]
The season begins immediately after the CDC explodes. Rick Grimes and the survivors see no reason to remain in Atlanta and leave it to the walkers, heading to Fort Benning. Along the way, they come across a traffic jam of vehicles on I-75. The group loots several vehicles for supplies. The group then hides as walkers approach in a "herd"; Sophia is chased by two walkers and runs off into the woods. Rick goes after her and tells her to hide under some branches by a creek. Rick kill both of the walkers but finds that Sophia has gone missing. The remaining group deals with interpersonal relationships while a search is performed. Rick, Shane, and Carl come across a deer. Carl slowly walks towards the deer but is shot. Otis, the man who accidentally shot Carl, takes Rick, Carl, and Shane to a farm house where Carl is treated. Rick gives blood in attempt to save Carl's life. Shane and Otis head to a School in search for more medical supplies but are trapped by walkers.
