TV Weekend: The Walking Dead! And Other Stuff


What’s new this weekend:
The Walking Dead (AMC, Sunday) Season Premiere: Read all about it at CityWeekly.net (Item 1). Come watch it at Brewvies (677 South 200 West, 21+) for free at 8 pm and, in the meantime, please to enjoy this wonderful montage of every zombie kill from Season 1:

Dexter (Showtime, Sunday) In a particularly funny/intense episode, Dexter tracks down a geezer serial killer who’s come out of retirement—literally; dude is old, and he’s called “The Tooth Fairy.” Seriously. Also, Christ-y killer duo Travis and the Professor (Colin Hanks and Edward James Olmos) step their game way the hell up, culminating in a creepy-cool closing scene that’ll easily make the Dexter’s Greatest Hits package.

Also new Sunday:
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Desperate Housewives, Pan Am (ABC); The Amazing Race, The Good Wife, CSI: Miami (CBS); The X Factor (Fox); Sister Wives (TLC); Kendra, Dirty Soap (E!); Squidbillies, China Il.

If you think Dexter’s been soft in Season 6, this ep should change your mind:
