The Walking Dead Season 3 TV Series Details
The third season of The Walking Dead, an American post-apocalyptic horror television series on AMC, premiered on October 14, 2012, and concluded on March 31, 2013, consisting of 16 episodes. Developed for television by Frank Darabont, the series is based on the eponymous series of comic books by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard. It was executive produced by Kirkman, Glen Mazzara, David Alpert, and Gale Anne Hurd, with Mazzara as showrunner for his second and final season. The third season was very well received by critics. It was nominated for multiple awards and won two, including Best Syndicated/Cable Television Series, at the 39th Saturn Awards.
This season adapts material from issues #13–39 of the comic book series and introduces notable comic characters, including Michonne (Danai Gurira), Axel (Lew Temple), The Governor (David Morrissey) and Tyreese Williams (Chad L. Coleman). It also marks the return of Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker), the volatile older brother of Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), who went missing in the first season, and also features the return of Morgan Jones (Lennie James), the first survivor Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) encountered and befriended, who he lost contact with in season one. As in the comics, this season is mainly set in both an abandoned prison and an active rural town of survivors.
Set eight months after the killing of Shane Walsh and onslaught of the Greene Family Farm, with the world growing increasingly more dangerous and Lori’s (Sarah Wayne Callies) pregnancy advancing, the season continues the story of Rick Grimes, who has assumed a dictatorial-like leadership over his group of survivors as they survive in a post-apocalyptic world infested with flesh-eating zombies, dubbed “walkers”. After discovering a potential safe haven, the group takes refuge and inhabits a large fortified prison, but this security is threatened by a nearby community — Woodbury — led by a nefarious man known as The Governor, who takes an interest in Andrea (Laurie Holden) as she remains, after the burning of the farm, separated and unaware of the main group’s status.
STORY
CAST
- Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, the series’ protagonist and a former sheriff’s deputy, who has established himself as the group’s leader. Rick has become a more cold and calculating leader, willing to leave strangers to die and abandon group members if it means everyone else survives, and comes into conflict with The Governor. Rick has also become distant, resentful of Lori’s ambivalence and anger towards him after telling her he’d killed Shane.
- Sarah Wayne Callies as Lori Grimes, Rick’s wife and Carl’s mother, who is 9 months pregnant but is resented by Rick and Carl for her affair with Shane and the problems it led to. She is worried about the safety of her baby but her faith in keeping her baby alive prompts her to become a fearless mother.
- Laurie Holden as Andrea, a former successful civil rights attorney, who was separated from the group at the end of the second season. She befriends Michonne and forms a relationship with The Governor.
- Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon, an antihero-like Southern redneck, who’s also the group’s primary hunter. He has become Rick’s right-hand man and closest ally since Shane’s death.
- Steven Yeun as Glenn Rhee, a former pizza delivery boy and Maggie’s boyfriend. Glenn has found something in Maggie that he doesn’t want to lose and has become very protective of her.
- Lauren Cohan as Maggie Greene, Hershel’s strong-willed and determined elder daughter and Glenn’s girlfriend. Maggie has come to terms with the walker virus and has since become a good fighter and an integral member of the core group.
- Chandler Riggs as Carl Grimes, Rick and Lori’s young son, who has also become more cold and brutal following his father’s example, but is often frustrated when he is forbidden to contribute more often, as the elder members of the group seek to retain his innocence.
- Danai Gurira as Michonne, the katana-wielding hooded figure, who saves Andrea in the season two finale. Michonne is a quiet and seemingly ruthless survivalist, who immediately dislikes The Governor. She forms a bond with Rick’s son Carl and begins to shed her brutality for a healthier mindset.
- Michael Rooker as Merle Dixon, an unruly Southern redneck and Daryl’s older brother, who disappeared in the first season. Merle is the right hand of The Governor, but Daryl, being his brother, could change that.
- David Morrissey as The Governor, leader of the town of Woodbury, father of Penny, and the primary antagonist of the season. The Governor is a ruthless, paranoid, and dangerous sociopath, who will murder anyone he sees as a threat to his community, and seeks to eliminate Rick’s group when they move into the prison nearby.
PRODUCTION
AMC renewed The Walking Dead for a third season on October 25, 2011 after the season two premiere broke cable ratings records in the 18-49 demographic. On January 14, 2012, AMC announced that the third season will contain 16 episodes.
Filming for the season began in May 2012 in Coweta County, Georgia, with the city of Senoia being used as the filming location for the town of Woodbury. Ernest Dickerson directed the season premiere episode. Greg Nicotero, co-executive producer and special make-up FX artist on the series, directed the fifth episode of season 3 after already having directed the season 2 episode “Judge, Jury, Executioner”. He also returned as a zombie in the episode “The Suicide King”, after portraying two different zombies in the first season. In November 2012, Glen Mazzara announced that Ernest Dickerson would direct the season finale.
After the conclusion of the third season, Mazzara stepped down from his position as showrunner and executive producer for the series, in a mutual agreement by both Mazzara and AMC. The press release read, “Both parties acknowledge that there is a difference of opinion about where the show should go moving forward, and conclude that it is best to part ways.”
