The Prison, The Governor, Michonne, Oh My!
The Walking Dead is going to be slinking back on to TV in a few short months. To help wet our lips with the upcoming season, AMC has unleashed it's first trailer for the series that shows our fateful group of survivors coming head to head with a prison full of Walkers. Also in play is our mysterious woman in the hood from last season, who any comic book fan knows is Michonne, hanging around Andrea and stumbling onto the Governor who has built a quaint little town in the middle of the end of the world. So Cheers to him.
The footage looks more or less to be stealing heavily from the third and fourth volumes of the Walking Dead Comics that involve the plot changing prison story arch and the Governor who is known as being the series best villain for who he is and what he does. I can only hope that he is the same guy from the comics as he is in the show because that will truly make for some interesting TV, and continue our new show runner's (Glenn Mazzara) winning streak after taking over for Frank Darabont half way through the second season.
Since Mazzara has taken over the story has shifted dramatically from being the slow burn story telling that really didn't go anywhere (aka Sophia story line) to much faster more tense action horror story we all wanted. At least in my opinion. I only hope the best for the show and that they don't fall back into the same rut they did in Season 2.
The Walking Dead's third Season premiers October 14th at 9/8C on AMC.

Lets hear what you think. Is the show going in the right direction or has it wandered to far for you to care. Comment below in that place where you write stuff and as always, thanks for reading.
