Mega Buzz: Can Rick & Co. Save Alexandria on The Walking Dead?

Even though the streets of Alexandria were flooded with zombies in The Walking Dead's midseason finale, our band of survivors were prepared to fight back.

But will Rick (Andrew Lincoln) & Co. actually be able to make a stand? The premiere episode (Sunday, Feb. 14 at 9/8c, AMC) picks up exactly where the action left off, and the odds look just as insurmountable as they did before. However, look for a rage-filled Rick to lead an attack so ill-advised yet so successful that it inspires even the most timid Alexandrians to pick up a weapon and bash walker heads.

Unfortunately, that inspiring wave of energy is the direct result of a major tragedy that befalls a group of significant characters pretty early on. (Let's just say the show wastes little time adding to the body count.) Plus: Keep your eye out for a major moment from the comic books that should have major reverberations through the rest of the season.

Watch the first four minutes of Sunday's premiere below.
