Yesterday, amid all the insanity of Hurricane Sandy we learned the surprising news from AMC that transcontinental railroad drama 'Hell on Wheels' would keep rolling for a third season, in spite of its mediocre ratings and lukewarm critical reception.  An official airdate has not yet been set for the western series' return, but what will be different about 'Hell on Wheels' season 3?  Might cast or

She may have drifted quietly along, but by golly, 'Hell On Wheels' has kept chugging along.  Several weeks after fininishing out its second, mildly-rated season, AMC has announced that it will bring the Anson Mount-fronted western series back for a third season, to be aired at an unknown date.  But with the murky airdate, what's changed about the number of episodes for the third season?  Does 'Hel

For as beloved or well-watched as any TV series gets, it's easy to wind up mired in controversy.  'The Walking Dead' hasn't courted much in the way of scandal (on-screen, anyway), but a recent exclusion of a storyline from the comics on which the TV series draws its base may have some believing it was an intentional slight.  What character and storyline, present in this past Sunday's episode "

Finally! We confess that most of us weren't affected in the slightest by DISH's decision to drop AMC over its billion dollar lawsuit, though we were certainly tired of hearing every single AMC promo in existence punctuated by "Not Available On DISH." Seriously, we've had jilted relationships that didn't complain that much. But for now it seems that AMC and DISH's beef has been settled, m

In the past, we've heard about networks passing up some great dramas now and again, like when 'Breaking Bad' almost went to FX, before landing on AMC as the Emmy-winning bad-ass drama we all know it to be. But did you know that before AMC scored even bigger with Robert Kirkman's 'The Walking Dead,' HBO and NBC were in the market for the zombie-thriller as well? What made them pass on something tha

Even hours later, we're still reeling from last night's season 3 premiere of 'The Walking Dead,' "Seed." We won't go into any tremendous spoilers just yet, but it's safe to say that Rick Grimes and the other survivors will still have plenty of problems on their plate, even after making a new home in the ominous prison facility. Next week's "Sick" will deal with the fallout of t

It's hard to believe that the time is nearly upon us, and 'The Walking Dead' will shamble out the first episode of season 3 with Sunday's premiere "Seed."  And as glad as we'll be to have 'The Walking Dead' back, we'll also remain on constant edge that our favorite characters will bite the big one, or rather be bitten by a big one.  Show-runner Glen Mazzara certainly isn't going to pull

We make no secret of our unabashed love for AMC's zombie-killing thriller 'The Walking Dead.'  From the books on which it takes its base, to the series marathon leading up to season 3's October 14 premiere, we'd call ourselves zombie lovers if it didn't sound so dangerously close to necrophilia.  So as the new season approaches, it's about time for a bad-ass new trailer, don't you think?  We certa

Uh-oh.  It's starting to look like that time!  We're only weeks away from October 14 and the third season premiere of AMC's zombie smash 'The Walking Dead,' which means that press screeners are on their way to critics (spoiler alert: we loved them), and AMC is gearing up for the release  with official episode descriptions of the first few weeks.   So with the official synopsis of 'The Walking Dead

The fall TV season might be in full swing, but fans won't be fully satisfied until October 14, when TV's biggest monster hit returns for its third season, AMC's 'The Walking Dead'! But while we know the third season will contain 16 total episodes, like the current season of 'Breaking Bad' but divided over less time, what's the holdup from AMC in greenlighting a fourth season already? Is there any

Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian, an avid fan of AMC’s smash hit ‘The Walking Dead,’ will be sitting in on the cast of the ‘Talking Dead’ after show tonight (March 4). Ian will be joined on the panel by make-up and special effects artist Greg Nicotero and comedian Dana Gould. ‘The Walking Dead’ is based on the comic book series by Robert Kirkman and follows the lives of a group of survivors after a zom
