There was a moment towards the beginning of the most recent run of The Walking Dead season five where we truly thought the group was going to be sticking together. However, as is the way of the AMC zombie drama, that hope was quickly dashed when Rick and the gang parted ways. However, for the moment, everyone is back together again as we head into the second half of season five. And while the first trailer we got a few weekends ago was just some non-canon marketing material, the latest spot promoting the seriesâ February return is full of a bunch of new footage for everyone to enjoy:
This new trailer is highly intriguing to us when compared to the one we got coming out of San Diego Comic-Con over the summer for the kick-off of season five. In that trailer, things seemed to be pitting the group vs. the world rather than the basic premise of the show, which is the group vs. zombies. However, this trailer appears to be promising a more stripped down return to the showâs undead, flesh-eating roots. Honestly, itâd be a nice change of pace.
So much of The Walking Dead has felt like itâs gone down the hole of âhumanity is the worstâ that it would be nice to watch the gang spend a few episodes just trying to get through the onslaught of walkers in order to survive. If thatâs what this latest run of episodes is promising, then weâre going to be in for an exhilarating couple of months.
The Walking Dead returns February 8Â at 9/8c on AMC.
What do you think of the new trailer for The Walking Dead? Let us know in the comments below.
love the show sooooooooo mccch love every bit of it
Do people still watch this?
The show/comic is about psychology and right/wrong. Walkers are obstacles and kill gags which should be more than acceptable while character development is what fuels the show.
Person who write this doesn’t read comics. People will be redeamed and be the worst again. Not enough story with just man v zombieq
Ummm….the person who writes it WROTE the Walking Dead COMICS….have you not read them?
isnt it 5.5?
I agree. I like the idea of more man vs zombie. But who am I fooling either way I love this show!
