Season Opener of the Walking Dead (Season 4)

Episode 4x01: 30 Days Without an Accident
 
This blog will be nothing without writing about Zombies!!!! My FAVORITE!!!!
 
As usual any subsequent season opener can never live up to the pacing and execution of the great Frank Darabont for the pilot episode of this series. However, after watching a disappointing Season 2, hopeful and promising Season 3, the much- anticipated Season 4 has finally arrived.
 
The start of the show is definitely a far cry from the opener of the previous seasons. From the pacing and tone, it immediately distances itself from the usual atmospheric build-up that any die hard fans of the series are used to.
 
Rick Grimes is joined by a couple of new faces this season aside from the remaining survivors from his group. The prison is now hounded by walkers coming from all directions. The leader of the group seemingly losing his edge, the rest trying to find ways to make the place more self- sufficient and consistently looking for places for supplies. The usual theme possibly for all post-apocalyptic scenario.
 
Although parts of the episode seemed to be dragging, it still showed plenty of Walkers and action to please die hard fans such as myself. The ending of the episode looks to be promising and intriguing. Hopefully, the pacing will pick- up while getting some extended character development without compromising the whole season.
 
Rating: 7.5/10
