I noticed we didn't have a thread for one of the highest rated shows on TV... so here we go, zombie time!
The Walking Dead!
Synopsis (from wikipedia because I'm a lazy mofo): Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman, this gritty drama portrays life in the weeks and months following a zombie apocalypse. Led by police officer Rick Grimes, his family and a group of other survivors find themselves constantly on the move in search of a safe and secure home. But the pressure each day to stay alive sends many in the group to the deepest depths of human cruelty, and Rick discovers that the overwhelming fear of the survivors can be more deadly than the zombies walking among them. Though the synopsis sounds like a typical zombie show/movie, there's just something about this show that delivers more than the typical average zombie bs. Discuss the characters, plot, and episodes for the television show here! And unanimously agree that Daryl and Michone are badass.

I've heard about it a lot and the show's about to air in one of my channels as reruns. Is it really worth a watch?

Thanos I was iffy about watching it too, since I hate gore, but the first season is really amazing. The characters go through a lot of development in such a short amount of time. Plus it's only 7 episodes anyway, you can decide from there if you wanna watch the second season. XD Seth what episode are you on..? I was watching season four and so much shit went down... oh god.

It's also on Netflix. So one thing I like about this show is how it's a lot more plot and dramatic driven than your typical zombie show. Most that you think of are just about killing zombies, this is more about surviving in the post zombie apocoliptic world, so I think that's one of the reasons tons of people love it.

Seth LKJDFLKSJFLKSDJ I can't believe that happened... I knew they couldn't live like that forever... ;____; I think this is the episode where they try to get medicine for the people who are infected... STUPID BOB DOUBLE CROSSED THEM! I was like... after all that work... breaking into the college to get meds... he doesn't even get them.... -___-
And I can't believe Carol was the killer (the one that burned the infected bodies)... I wasn't expecting that. I miss her already. :/ AND GLENN CAN'T DIE... I already know Hershel dies ;___; .... The poor old man is gonna go to heaven though. <33 Thanos yay! hopefully you like it. XD Might not be your cup of tea though.

Balshej I don't wanna spoil stuff! ;___; Wanna know how many of the people you mentioned died? Now with what you were saying. You still gotta love bob....he's lovable. XD
And carol...I find she was somewhat justified, maybe should have waited to see if they would have become better, but playing it safe is good for survival.
Hershel....will be having spaghetti Tuesdays up in heaven...not sure if you're that far though. XP
Though what I really love is how Rick starts becoming more BA and starts to really take charge. So the person who we talk to about to is the wife of our bishop (similar to a pastor) So a middle aged 1st grade school teacher who is our bishop's wife watches it. XD it feels weird talking about it with her during church.

I also like how in the beginning, they were more scared of zombies than people, but slowly, they realize humans are just as dangerous. But aside from that they never lose that zombie element of the show. They always come back to bite ya.... Aside from Season 2. NEVER SPEAK OF SEASON 2. Worst season ever. But they needed a break. XD

XD Well I think they've realized humans are way worse than zombies... Because those zombies, really aren't that much of an issue, they even in hordes wouldn't be a problem except for the sake of plot the producers made them more of an issue.

Though I don't understand why he did that... why could he just get the meds and the alcohol?!
Same... that's why I didn't want her to leave. Though she is getting more cold... :/
HERSHEL NOOOO. They need you.... I NEED YOUUU. ;____;
Yeah, Rick has been laying low for a while. What I really want most is for them to take proper baths... that would probably keep away the disease... And LOL. I would feel awkward talking to her about it too. XD

That made me less sad. I'm still confused about Bob though... and what his motive is. XD
