The farm was doomed to fail. Instead of constructing defenses and planning for an attack, the ‘Walking Dead’ group got mired in Dale’s moralistic ramblings, Rick’s see-sawing, and Shane’s head-rubbing. It took just one errant helicopter to put the idyllic Farm Base on top of the zombie menu.

The Kid Situation has come to a head. Do they kill him, or do they follow Dale’s lead and preserve their humanity by letting the kid live?

Bucking the trend of opening each ‘Walking Dead’ episode directly where the last one left off, ’18 Miles Out’ pulls a fast one by launching us right into the middle of an undead nightmare as Shane fends off famished Walkers from inside a school bus, Rick runs from a few more, and their new tied-up friend slinks along on the ground trying desperately to reach an abandoned knife.

Back when ‘The Walking Dead’ started its two-and-a-half-month hiatus, I put together a Character Guide for the Grimes family. We talked about each character’s chances of survival, and how they might die. With the show starting up again on Sunday, I’d like to take a look at other members of the cast, starting with the rest of the camp.

‘Justified’ returned to kick off its third season last week. Even though the show has never been a significant ratings hit, the FX network has had enough faith to keep it on the air this long. That’s a good thing for fans, because the last season left a number of unresolved storylines hanging.

Another season of ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ has come to an end. Like most ‘Sunny’ finales, ‘The High School Reunion Part 2: The Gang’s Revenge’ brings back a bunch of hilarious recurring characters.
