AMC (who probably felt bad about turning him into the most hated man on the show) put together a nice promotional interview for Jon Bernthal, who plays Shane on The Walking Dead. (AMC)
Actress Amber Heard, who played the girl who Jesse Eisenberg had a crush on until he had to beat her with a toilet lid in Zombieland, recently came out at a GLAAD event she attended with her girlfriend. Good for her. (Fort Worth Weekly)
The official Walking Dead season one ratings have been ranked, and it’s now carries the highest seasonal ratings average in basic cable television since 1993. Basically it’s spread faster than an actual zombie outbreak would. (Dread Central)
I love when science meets science fiction. Popular Mechanics recently penned a great article on the facts of the head shot, from the special effects of The Walking Dead to the actual science behind them. (Popular Mechanics)
In late breaking news, actor Charlie Sheen is confirmed to play a zombie in season two of The Walking Dead. The rumor was confirmed by his representatives. (socyberty.com)
Wow. Some serious zombie hate in those Popular Mechanics comments.
I love the moment in the finale when Rick throws Shane to the ground and when he looks around everyone is looking at him…expecting him to take control. A very subtle transfer of power scene. Watch it again.
