Based on the comic book series by Robert Kirkman (also the show producer), Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard, the series features a large ensemble cast who try to survive a zombie apocalypse. The show has been nominated for several awards, including the Writers Guild of America Award for New Series and the Golden Globe Award for the Best TV Series – Drama!
Coming with an intense story line, this post-apocalyptic America has a virus outbreak which has created shambling undead creatures – call them what you want — zombies, walkers, biters, or roamers, and they are here with one mission: To feed on human flesh! Following perhaps the most popularized apocalyptic scenario, the show, currently on its season 10, has left us all at a cliff-hanger – a zombie horde surrounding a hospital where survivors are hiding! Throughout all seasons, the series follows a small group of close-knit survivors as they’re forced to band together and fend off evil on all fronts in an attempt to rebuild society.
This show with ten whole seasons of zombie-fighting, award-winning gore, has received a massive cult following around the world. And so, if you haven’t already binged it, find out what the hype is about.
