I did, however, go back to the first season and binge all the way to the eleventh and final season. I’m sure I missed some things due to the distractions of life, and I may be wrong on a number of things. Naturally, I know that those behind the cinematic version often came up with their own way of doings things and sometimes going in a different direction by way of plot, creating a few of their own characters, keeping characters that had been killed off in the graphic novels, killing off others who survived in the novels, and so on. That being said, I do know that Robert Kirkman ended TWDcomic series on a happy note. I enjoyed the characters and their interactions, their backstories, the dramatic situations, and the “family-type” of various storylines.Īs it is, I confess to having read only the first few issues of the graphic novels, so I don’t know what happened in that series, nor do I claim to know what Kirkman, as well as the creators of the TV series were thinking, and of course what they would say to my thoughts and observations. But I didn’t need every episode to be about destroying or being eaten by zombies. I also know people who, like me, loved the fact that the show was driven more by character than by plot, although a little more care in some of the later plotting would have helped the last handful of seasons. It’s like they wanted Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and his posse to walk all the way from the Shire to Mordor, fighting and destroying zombie after zombie every step of the way. I know people who didn’t like that The Walking Deadwas too character-driven. I’ve written this article for those who have seen part of, if not all, of the TV series. I may be a day late and a dollar short on writing this article, but I figured there might still be a few fans of the show out there. Whether I’ve succeeded or not, well, that’s up to you readers. My thoughts are intended to be somewhat humorous, a bit critical, and slightly satirical.
This is a follow-up to my 2-part article on 9 Seasons in Hell: The Walking Dead, from 2019, BC - Before Covid: 9 Seasons of Hell on Earth, Part One and 9 Seasons of Hell on Earth, Part Two. The only thing more dangerous than the dead are the livingĪfter all the praise, complaints and criticism finally subsided, I decided to watch the last two seasons of The Walking Dead, having taken a long break from the series for my own personal reasons.
