The Walking Dead

Every Sunday at 8:00 I sit down and watch my favorite show on TV, "The Walking Dead". Ever since Episode 1 of Season 1 I have been a die-hard, dedicated follower of this show. To those who have never seen the show, it is a pointlessly violent, gory, zombie-slaying massacre, however the show is about so much more than that. "The Walking Dead" is a gripping drama that will draw you in week by week and leave you wanting more ever time. Sure the show is gory, probably the goriest show on television, but behind all the blood and guts relationships are formed. Individuals who would generally never get along are forced to work together when faced with a herd of walking, ravenous corpses. No matter what the tragedy, fictional and non-fictional alike, human interaction doesn't change. Sometimes, when faced with difficult situations a person will become someone completely different from who they were previously. Difficult times change people and they way that they see the world, the way that they see others, and the way that they communicate with others. "The Walking Dead" uses zombies to touch on the center of a human being at their most troubling and vulnerable times.
