  Interested in a tv show that has a lot of action and drama? Then this series would be the right choice. The Walking Dead is a show about a police officer named Rick Grimes, who wakes up from a coma, only to find out the world has been overrun with “Walkers” (Zombies). I love the main character because he is a great leader, as well as the fact that he works hard to protect the people he loves, and he makes great choices on how they will survive. Another reason why I love Rick is because he encourages people to survive and makes them keep going on with life, even though the world has been overrun with the undead.
  Rick has been through so much throughout all of the seasons. In season two, [SPOILER ALERT], his son Carol was unfortunately shot, and almost did not survive.He had to kill his best friend, Shane who was attacking him. Also in season three, he sadly lost his wife, Lori,  while she was giving birth. Even though he has been through ups and downs, he keeps moving on with life.
  This TV show has been aired since 2010, and it has just wrapped up their their seventh season.They are making a season eight later in October. Season seven just ended, and it was so upsetting, because [SPOILER ALERT] Rick lost another one of his friends named Sasha; she killed herself so Negan would not use her to hurt her own friends.
  The Walking Dead is popular all around the world, and it must be very popular if it has been aired for seven, almost eight seasons. Most series do not even have that many seasons.
  I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a lot of suspense and graphic scenes. Also, if someone is  interested in a show that puts viewers on the edge of their seats, then this is the show to check out. The Walking Dead is for anyone who is the age of 16 and older because of the blood, violence, and some sexual scenery. This series has the one of the best special effects makeup artistry, and looks very intriguing, based on how the crew makes the actors look like actual zombies.
