The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 1: The Day Will Come When You Won't Be

WARNING: SPOILERS. IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN SEASON 7 EPISODE 1 “THE DAY WILL COME WHEN YOU WON’T BE”, READ AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE. Jesus (no pun or character name intended), “The Walking Dead” sure knows how to squash our hearts and spit in our faces (or perhaps I should’ve said “squash” our heads). After over six months of waiting, we FINALLY received the episode we’ve all been patiently anticipating. Last night’s Season 7 premiere was everything a longtime fan could’ve been waiting for: It had very present moments of palpable tension, a couple of crushing blows which were followed up with some shots of graphic violence, and that extremely dirty feeling you get after watching something you feel like you shouldn’t have seen. For me, this is one of the cases in which you have to keep telling yourself “It’s just a show, it’s just a show” as the blood drips down the face of, now, former characters we’ve come to love over these painful years. I can’t wait any longer to say this…REST IN PE

I have been wondering that for a while now, and I believe this to be an ACTUAL look into our newest season to come. After the two-hour special "The Walking Dead: The Journey So Far", AMC had a network television premiere of the Season 7 sneak peek released only days earlier. We are presented

This Week on DVD: The Purge: Election Year

For the third installment of the series, writer/director James DeMonaco brings us another unworldly view on the future of American society. 18 years after add night of terrible events, Senator Charlie Roan (Elizabeth Mitchell) is in the midst of running for president against an extremely Trump-esque candidate, Earl Danzinger (Kyle Secor), whom is an acting minister and backed by the New Founding Fathers of America (who are in charge of the purge, itself). One of the only things making the senator vulnerable is the new rule that eliminates the protection of all government officials from the purge, therefore making her an easier target. However, our senator is certainly not alone. By her side is Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo) from the previous entry of the series, Anarchy . Leo reprises his role as the bad ass he was before, ensuring nothing happens to Charlie on this fateful and hectic night. Getting tied up in the antics is a convenience store owner Joe Dixon (a very funny Mykelti W
