Last year, at the start of the second season of “The Walking Dead,” AMC shot scenes moments after the CDC exploded from the season one finale near the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, which masqueraded as the CDC.
But those shots never made the actual cut of the show.
Good news for folks who wondered what happened: the scenes are part of the upcoming DVD set of season two of “The Walking Dead.”
According to Entertainment Weekly:
Shane’s car breaks down just a few blocks away from the explosion, leaving him isolated from the group and having to fight off and outrun an army of the undead before finally being rescued by the group in the RV.
Later, the team goes back to the nursing home where Glenn had been held hostage season one but zombies had overtaken the humans there. (This was shot at the art community the Goat Farm.)
Showrunner Glen Mazzara will explain on the DVD why they chose to cut these scenes and cut straight to them far away from Atlanta on the highway instead. The DVD set comes out August 28.
In other “Walking Dead” news:
- Facebook and AMC announced that a “Walking Dead” beta game goes live today for anyone who wants to test their ability to survive. It’s free. I haven’t played it yet to tell you whether it’s any good.
- “The Walking Dead” is coming to Universal Studios for Halloween.
- And in case you missed it, here’s a review of what happened during the “Walking Dead” Comic-Con session, plus the four minute extended trailer for season three:

Why do I love this show and Zombie books as a whole? I think I actually wouldn’t mind having a real go at surviving something like this real world. I know thats crazy, but when real life gets crazy killing zombies seems like a cool thing to do.

Hoping to be able to go to Universal and take part of the experience… that’s as close to real zombie life as i want to take.

It really does look like Daryl right at the 3:28 mark… I hope he doesn’t cross. IMBD says he is in every episode for the first half of season 3. They don’t have the second half up yet. I really hope they don’t kill him off and have him as the person to kill off before mid-season finale. He is honestly my favorite.

No its not Daryl at the 3:28 mark. If you stop the scene, you see the guy is wearing a collard shirt. Can you imaging Daryl ever wearing a shirt with a collar???????

Nothing like reality-free television to latch onto.
