Making sure to come back with a bang, AMC has just announced that the second season of The Walking Dead will kick-off with a 90-minute premiere on Sunday, October 19th at 9/8c. Then six more one-hour episodes will follow. However, this time there will be a break between the second season with the final six episodes set to star airing on Sunday, February 12th at 9/8c. That's certainly a bit of an inconvenience for fans who just want to get their zombie fix every week, but that's the way the cookie crumbles. If you haven't seen the extended trailer for the second season of The Walking Dead yet, you can check it out right here.
