"W" is for the Walking Dead...DUH



The Walking Dead.....one of the BEST FREAKING ZOMBIE/END OF THE WORLD TV SHOWS...EVER!!

If you don't watch it, go bang your head.  I know, I know, that is not nice, but seriously if you can get past the blood and guts it is AWESOME.  The story lines, the reality of the situations, the sheer drama and...and...and...and... I can't find the right word.  The Apocalypse of it all....(even that word is wrong)  


The Walking Dead makes you think....what would you do....what decisions would you make....what changes to your personality would come out....would you be able to make those tough decisions to go back and save other people at the peril of your own family or those that you are with.  Would you make the same decisions as Shane or would you be more like Rick, always putting yourself on the line for your family and for everyone else in your group??

You head spins on Sunday night as you lay in bed, thinking of all the ways that this show would impact your life if something like this happened.  A virus breaks out and kills a majority of the population, turning some to "Walkers" and leaving the rest to pick up the pieces of humanity.  


How would you react?  Would you give up or would you fight??  What if you got pregnant?  If you had children still alive, what would you do....would you show them to fight or would you have them give up?? How would you handle bringing a baby into this brave new world?  The show is just incomparable.  It makes the list of my top favorite ever, and is the only TV show that I would consider buying the series once it has concluded.  

So before the new season starts in the Summer....get your ass in gear and start watching Season 1 and Season 2 - there WILL be a quiz!!

  2. My hubs & I love this show so much, that it almost feels like a part of us has died when it's on hiatus. We're counting down the days until the new season starts!!

  3. Manfriend has this on DVD. Maybe I will watch it with him if it is really that good. I mean, I did make him watch all of the Dawson's Creek DVD's recently.

  5. Best show ever. AMC really knocked it outta the park with this one.

    I like to think I'd be a good mix of both Shane & Rick. They both had/have great qualities to survive in this zombie world. I think when the time comes you're gonna need to have a bit of crazy in you to actually chop into a Walker.

  8. My friends and I have spent hours discussing what we would do in the event of a zombie Apocalypse. We've sorted out the people who would be the most useful to have around, like people who can do carpentry and make soap and grow pot and shit.

    The problem I face is sourcing. I can do shit like make soap and candles, but I buy my supplies off the Internet, which won't exist when the dead rise, so I'll need to figure out how to render the fat of zombies or something.

  10. I can't watch it because it started when Breaking Bad ended. I know this zombie show has nothing to do with the season of my favorite show ending, but it hurts.
