The Walking Dead Recap: Arc 1 - The Beginning/The Shane Era Recap of seasons 1 and 2 of AMC’s The Walking Dead television show.

The first arc is “The Beginning“ or “The Shane Era“, highlighted by Rick Grimes waking up in the hospital, discovering walkers, meeting Morgan, reuniting with his family (Lori and Carl), and meeting a crew of people who would go on to be his extended family.
