The Walking Dead Pilot Is Still an Absolute TV Masterpiece

The show’s first episode is widely considered one of its strongest, featuring a police officer who awakens from a coma as the world is overrun by ‘walkers.’ Andrew Lincoln, the show’s star, has repeatedly said it’s his personal favorite, praising director Frank Darabont, the episode’s genuinely frightening atmosphere, and the unforgettable scene of being pursued by a massive horde of walkers through the deserted streets of Atlanta.
