Okay everyone. Settle down. It’s time for the first skirmish between the two survivor groups of The Walking Dead, and it’s the mid-season finale, so mid-level pain could really go down. Will someone die? Will they matter? Will we come out of this excited for season 3.5? And will Michonne finally … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: When The Dead Come Knocking – Dork Review
Two worlds orbit each other in this week’s Walking Dead, as our dual settings (Woodbury and Prison) exchange a couple of characters, make small talk, then finally, tentatively but oh so gently, start torturing each other. And with the mid-season finale next week, hopefully bloody revenge isn’t … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Hounded – Dork Review
This season of The Walking Dead exists in two worlds: the prison, where most of our previous cast live, and the new town of Woodbury, populated by two villains and the least likable member of the old ensemble. I wonder if the residents realise they’re living in an evil fortress. But nonetheless, … [Read more...]
Walking Dead: Say The Word – Dork Review
Last week’s The Walking Dead was harrowing, knocking off two long-time characters (or, as we’ll see later, potentially three) and driving our main man over the edge of lunacy. We shuddered, we wept, we wondered if we were happier during season two when the show was dull. So, surely it’s time to … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Killer Within – Dork Review
It feels like The Walking Dead has been taking those “too boring!” criticisms to heart, as this year they’re determined not to stand still for a single second. I don’t want to say too much in this intro, but um, wow, I’m starting to get whiplash. So, another big episode then. Best get going, and … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Walk With Me – Dork Review
For the last two reviews, I've found the new, tense, survival-heavy Walking Dead season 3 a vast improvement, and dreaded the inevitable onset of quieter episodes. That day is here already, guys. This week, we ditch the regular cast to focus on Andrea and new character Michonne encountering the … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Sick – Dork Review
Last week, I gave a glowing write-up to The Walking Dead season 3 premiere, in which our heroes stumbled upon an abandoned prison and tried to clean it out as their new home, leaving one character injured, along with the discovery of still-living prisoners in the cafeteria. This time, I return … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Seed – Dork Review
The zombies return for a third year in The Walking Dead, ready to chew everyone up and spit them out, probably because we reviewers were so mean about their previous run. Yes, it had pacing problems in the middle and was over-soapy, but they seemed to get their shit back together by the last few … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Season 2 DVD – Dork Review
After finally airing on terrestrial Channel Five, The Walking Dead season 2 is out in DVD next Monday. You’ve probably seen the episodes by now if you’re a fan, but how do they hold up as a unit? Are there any special features worth seeing? Well, we’ve had an early look at the boxset, so let’s … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Beside The Dying Fire – Dork Review
Phew. The second season of The Walking Dead is almost over, after a final few episodes that seemed to stem from the writers waking up and thinking: “Wait, have we killed anyone all year? Except when we knocked off that little girl off-screen? No? Better get on that!” And so they have. Which... … [Read more...]
