I know people here have gotten attracted to this genre for its exciting and variant other different reasons. But obviously we all share a personal connection when zombies are involved. Firstly I was taken aback during the first episode and it matches all my expectations and MORE.
The way the plot has been presented is very entertaining but not very surprising. The story takes place in the present day, a Sheriffs deputy-Rick Grimes gets caught in an accident and ends up in the hospital. after blanking out and waking up from coma, he finds himself in an abandant hall with flickering lights, broken down hallways and barricaded doors. The acting is top-notch and very realistic. Also, I like the multiple story line because I feel that is what keeps the series interesting and not boring. The makeup of the zombies are done pretty well .So its basically a week doze of zombie apocalypse.
