Sweltering heat, abandoned cars and oh yeah, zombies. Sounds about right for day one of 'The Walking Dead' season 2 filming.

AMC has released a new behind-the-scenes video of the cast and crew's first day back, showcasing their jolly dispositions despite the oppressive heat.

When we last left the gang of survivors they were driving away from a burning CDC building. Now, it looks like they've encountered some problems on the road.

Watch the cast's wacky antics and a few words from executive producers Frank Darabont and Gale Anne Hurd below.

'The Walking Dead' season 2 is slated for a fall 2011 premiere.
