So...I recently was "forced" to watch Walking Dead after being strongly against it because I hate how corny zombie things could be...so I stayed away from it.
I was used to the zombie shows that had zombies constantly jumping at the screen and looking extremely just...not how I figured a zombie would look if it somehoe happened in real life.
Now that I have watched it, I can honestly say HOLY CRAP...this show surprised me like no other. Zombies are pretty real looking, no jump scares practically, and it doesn't continuously just focus onthe zombie part of it. It follows an actual story.
Saying these things...who else is absolutely in love with this show? If so, who are your favorites and which were your favorite episodes thus far? Also, which parts shicked the heck out of you? i'm interested to see other peoples' thoughts on this.

I was terrified also...as much as I hated how they depicted zombies...I think it's because it's terrifying. All the jumping and groaning and just all around horrific-ness makes me hate it. When I saw this, I didn't find myself scared in the least. I would try one episode...obviously the first one. If it scares you to much, at least you could say you gave it a chance. I really think it's the best show I have seen since American Horror Story ended.

That sounds so fun! My boyfriend didn't get into it like I did. He thinks it's just okay...I can't stop watching it. lol
I also love me some Daryl...but I also strangely like Merle...which I can't explain why. lol

daryl is my fav character as well (same with cayla) lol my fiance's favorite is Shane YUCKKK. I think it's because he's so cold LOL. I really hated Laurie up until like the past few episodes but now i kind of changed my mind. I still think she's a hoe though !!! lol

Ugh...Shane...I really liked him at first, now he is probably my least favorite character on the entire show. Once the incident with Otis happened, I decided he is too impulsive and is an all around d-bag...even with those few scenes that I do enjoy with him (Sandra car scene). lol
I don't like Laurie either...she's too hypocritical.
Now my question for today is...which character death was the most shocking to you? I would definitely say SOPHIA. I was really pulling for her to be alive the entire first half of the second season and was in utter shock when she came out of the barn. What's everyone else's opinion?

As Emily stated I love me some Walking Dead. When the new seasons start a bunch of my friends and I get together every sunday night to watch it together and then gush about it after the episode is over. I was like you in the beginning I had my doubts about the show. I love horror movies, but zombie movies have been kinda low on my list because they seem to be sooo slow and boring. However a guy friend of mine kepy gushing about this new zombie series and he made me sit down and watch it and I fell in love instantly. I like how it is kind of more like a survival story rather than just a straight zombie show. Cuz even when they have the walkers under control they still face problems like medicine, electricity, food, and of course the case of getting preggers.
Deryl is my favorite male character, then Glenn, but I have to say Carl is starting to grow on me now that he's gotten a personality. Mishonne is my favorite female character I just wish we knew more about her since she doesn't really talk much and looks angry all the time. Maggie isn't too bad a female character either. I like that she's tough and was willing to take almost anything to keep the group safe.
The most shocking death to me like all of you was probably Sophia just because I knew she was alive in the comic books at the time and I so wasn't expecting the show to kill her off. The other shocking death to me would probably be the CDC guy blowing himself up and everyone who wanted to die with him. Really wasn't forseeing that... I mean he had all this technology at his disposal and was one of the few scientists in the world left and he just decided to give up and die.

One of my close friends is in love with Maggie! I think she's great too but she doesn't beat Michonne and Andrea to me...even though i'm going to be VERY upset if she doesn't switch back over to Rick's group.
Also, is anyone else incredibly happy that Merle's back? When he came out of nowhere I fan girled super hard...which is weird because he isn't very nice. lol

Mishonne is badd ass i love her !!!! My fiance thinks she's hideous surprisingly BUT I THINK SHES HOT ! I really don't like Merle because he was madddd racist in the begininning and I was glad they left him there to die....but honestly he grew on me and he makes Daryll seem like such a sweetie compared to him so IDKKKKK !

Daryl is such a sweetheart! My favorite Daryl moment so far was when he brought Carol the flower when Sophia was missing. I thought that was really cute

yes. even though carol is sorta old i think Daryl and her make a cute couple. Carol deserves someone like Daryl after that ass of a husband she had.
