Sunday's episode is exceptional, marred only in a few spots by padding that's inevitable with these supersized episodes. Read full review

By casting Rick's protagonist status into question, showrunner Scott Gimple has opened The Walking Dead to new possibilities--both in its narrative and philosophical foundations--and is successfully crafting a rare series of rising caliber and still-widening potential deep into its run.

As usual with TWD, it's hard to say where the season will go next. But judging by the premiere, it'll be worth the walk. [9 Oct 2015]

The show has constantly reinvented itself by both shifting venues and turning over characters, a formula that has kept the program’s soap opera aspects fresh, even if the threat from marauding zombies remains continuous. Read full review

A complicated, and occasionally whimsical, series of tactics lend the 90-minute premiere the wide-open, yet tensely meticulous feel of a good heist film. Read full review

The Walking Dead in its sixth season premiere wants you to remember the nightmare started here, and this show owns it. Read full review

It still reigns supreme in the gore department, with skin and ribcages falling off with gusto in the opening minutes alone, but it’s just not enough to counterbalance the circuitous nature of the show the longer it continues. Read full review

Even more action packed and suspenseful than the past seasons. It's only two episodes in and it's already established itself as the best fall premiere of the fall.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My concern that this season would not live up to others, which wasn't dispelled at all by the horrible summer of Fear the Walking Dead, was immediately proven unfounded. Some have wondered if living in Alexandria will make Rick and the gang soft and end the drama of living in a dystopia. Umm, emphatic no. The sheer scale of the opener was impressive and the use of black and white flashbacks to explain the basis for the zombie parade was effective. The newly released horde will clearly wreak all kinds of fresh havoc on the town in the upcoming season and give the original townsfolk of Alexandria the chance to prove they should still be alive in this new world. Sorry Carter, you got your answer pretty quick!… Expand

Regrettably the series has side stepped the obvious plot developments.

For example there is no mentioned of a short or long term cure, as remember someone in a Paris disease research centre was "Closet", or someone in government somewhere in the world survived, to name but a few possibilities. Instead the show is unable to advance beyond the "Lets all continue on until the next big group attempts to murder everyone", plot line.

Further disappointment comes from the dialogue becoming increasingly thin and I wonder if the
series should not have been titled "You give us half your stuff". It is hardly awarding winning or involving dialogue, leaving the show to limp on like one of the very walking dead which inhabit the world it depicts… Expand
