Glenn: ‘The Walking Dead’ is a study in a post-apocalyptic world [Glenn Beck]

What would happen if there was total economic collapse? Or an EMP? Or some other apocalyptic event? Glenn has been watching ‘The Walking Dead’ and sees it as a scarily accurate portrait of what life would be like if people had to fight to survive. There may not be zombies, but the rest isn’t too far off.

“If you watch it for pure entertainment, God bless you. I don’t know how do it. It must be nice to live in that world. I don’t live in that world. I’m taking notes,” Glenn said. “When it happens in real life, they won’t be walking around dummies just trying to stumble into you and gnaw at your arms…they have it easy compared to the way I think the world is going to break down.”

Glenn found the role that God played in the show to be really interesting. One of the main characters, Herschel Greene, brings faith to the center of the show and how it impacts the other characters. “He brings everybody together. And you can see how important God would be in that situation. A true belief in God, not a magical mystical thing,” Glenn said.

The series is scarily accurate if what is portrayed played out exactly as portrayed.

It's darn a good thing women in real life are not like this fictional character.

Let me see ... in one reality I have countless hideous reanimated corpses bent on eating my brains. In the other reality I'm paying rapacious taxes to support the likes the Obamas, the Clintons and Nancy Pelosi as they live the high life.

I'll take brain-eating zombies for 100 Alex!

I will literally cheer when they punch his ticket to the next world. Would be VERY fitting for him to meet the same fate as his congregation....

Herschel Greene

Time to catch up Glenn. Herschel Greene is dead. Killed by one of Satan's play things...the governor.

And Glenn needs to turn off the TV and read some books. I would suggest "One Second After". It is a far more accurate portrayal of what things will be like after an EMP.

Really? Really? Women are like this in real life. I am a female and have known countless women like this. Where in hell do you live? On the Moon?

Sarcasm tag should have been there. In defense of women, Shane was no prize either. But I heard that at Walking Dead parties all over the globe there was massive celebration at the character death of Laurie Grimes.
