I Suck At The Walking Dead

With Karen and our baby daughter (Briana) fast asleep, I decided to watch the new AMC television series, The Walking Dead, which I had recorded on our DVR. Now, I suck at The Walking Dead.

(The video below is a trailer for The Walking Dead.)


For anyone curious, the new television series is based on the comic book series of the same name by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard. The title of the series says it all: zombies! And now you can understand why I had to wait for Karen and Briana to be asleep in order for me to watch it.

Anyway, the plot centers around a group of survivors in Georgia following the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. The main character is a deputy who awakens from a coma only to realize that he is in the midst of the aftermath. Consequently, he is determined to find his wife and child who have also survived the aftermath.

Needless to say, I absolutely loved the new series. Granted, I may have been biased to begin with. I had high hopes for the series because it is about zombies and it is based on a comic book. In fact, I wonder why a television series about zombies was never done before. It's brilliant! (Zombies... the new vampire...)

It probably goes without saying that I can't wait for the rest of the season to unfold.
