Although I’m still slightly bent out of shape that AMC canceled Rubicon after just one season, my caffeinated anger was suppressed by the inception of The Walking Dead, a pulpy and evocative zombie drama that was easily one of last year’s TV highlights.  The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season heads to Blu-ray and DVD March 8th through Anchor Bay Entertainment.  Bonuses on both versions include several featurettes (The Making of Walking Dead, Inside The Walking Dead: Episode 1-6), a convention panel with the producers, The Walking Dead trailer, behind the scenes Zombie Make-Up Tips, and a sneak peek with executive/producer Robert Kirkman (hopefully he gives more insight on the second season).  Other extras include segments featuring cast members Andrew Lincoln (police officer Rick Grimes) and Steven Yeun (Glenn, aka the crafty survivor who saved Rick’s life).  Audio commentary on the collection is not mentioned in the news release, but that’s just me nitpicking.  And with the new year just a twinkle in our eyes, the glass half full applies.
