Yesterday I read something talking about all fo the marathons on TV for New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I saw that AMC was going to be showing every episode ever of “The Walking Dead”. I watched 15 minutes of the first episode back in 2010 when it first started. I quit watching it cause it wasn’t my thing. I don’t like scary stuff. I decided to record all the episodes and watch again. I was surprised to find that I actually like the show. It is a beautifully done show with great writing and drama and stories that have depth. It isn’t your average zombie thing, movie or television show.
The effects are awesome and by effects I mean the make-up. It has me wondering how do you become an extra as a zombie? My problem with the show are the zombies. The stuff they say about how a zombie acts contradicts how some of the zombies actually act. We were told that the zombies are thoughtless creatures and can’t think on their own. But we have some zombies who seem to be able to think and attack accordingly. Maybe it is part of the mystery and gives more to the story that not everything is known about the zombies or why it happens.
I still really like the show and AMC has anther fan of their hit show. I would like to thank AMC for showing every episode ever and I will be setting my DVR for all new episodes. I now can’t wait for the second half of the season to start February 12. I think the scary scenes aren’t the worst I have, but they still bother me because I am a wuss when it comes to scary things. Is till think that you should give the show a try even if zombies aren’t your thing. I did.
