20 Highest Rated Episodes Of The Walking Dead

2. Guts (S1 EP2)

Walking Dead Guts 2
AMC

Rating: 8.6

Opening where the pilot left off, The Walking Dead's second episode follows Rick as he escapes confinement within a tank and proceeds to fight through the walker-infested streets of Atlanta, meeting a small group of survivors on the way.

Character development is pivotal in this episode, as it sees the first introduction of key members of the ensemble including Glenn, Andrea, T-Dog, and Merle. While there is a noticeable step down in quality from the seasons opening pilot, "Guts" is still easily one of the strongest episodes of the first series, due to a thrilling and occasionally humorous story line.
