Here’s a new trailer for season 2 of The Walking Dead. You know, if I wasn’t worried about this whole budget-slashing Frank Darabont-firing thing, this trailer would have me salivating in anticipation for some well-acted zombie drama. Well, I guess this does have me salivating n anticipation for some well-acted zombie drama, I’m just worried The Walking Dead might not be able to provide it now. I certainly hope it can, though.

Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
