The first season of AMC's science-fiction horror series The Walking Dead premiered on October 31, 2010 and concluded its six episode run on December 5, 2010. The series was developed for television by Frank Darabont, who wrote or co-wrote four of the season's six episodes and directed the pilot, based on the series of graphic novels of the same name by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard.

The plot of the first season centers on Sheriff's Deputy Rick Grimes, who has gunned down and put into a coma for an indeterminate amount of time, after which he awakens into a post-apocalyptic world overrun with the walking dead. He discovers that his wife and son are missing and, after arming himself, sets off on a perilous journey for Atlanta, Georgia, where the CDC is rumored to have set up a quarantined safe-zone in the city.
