The Walking Dead has been receiving massive amounts of good buzz since it went in to production. Good director, good writers, good cast, awesome trailer, good network backing it. So, really, it should be no surprise that it appears that without a single frame of the first season being shown to the general population, The Walking Dead has been picked up for a full 13-episode second season!

While it sounds like this is some pretty legitimate news, it’s always a good idea to be a bit cautious and wait for the studio, director, someone with clout to step up and say “Yes, it’s true, we will be back for a second season.” But, I can’t help to be a little excited. Too often a television show comes on the air, and then is gone before it even really had a chance. I feel like if The Walking Dead does already have a second season green light, then this show will have plenty of time to find an audience and hopefully stay on the air!
It’s being reported that the second season of The Walking Dead is set to start filming in February 2011.
You can catch the series premier on October 31!
