Hubby and I were bored one weekend, so we decided to try The Walking Dead which was free on our streaming Netflix. My daughter had said it was good, and it has good reviews; but, neither one of us are into the "zombie" genre. So, I said if we don't like it, we can stop watching.

Well, we got hooked, so now I am a fan of The Walking Dead. My husband has decided that he thinks these type of programs are rather like the "red scare" type of movies that we were seeing in the 40's and 50's. That it is a way of playing out our fears of total societal collapse.

Same here. I would never in a million years have thought I would enjoy anything like that, but...Netflix can have that effect.

I was looking for something to watch (I do enjoy apocalyptic movies such as “The Omega Man” and so on, but not really zombie movies) and came across “The Walking Dead”.

I got hooked. I loved the way they developed the characters. Very stereotypical, but...it engaged me.

I must admit I got hooked on The Walking Dead after my son was watching it on NetFlix in the background. Some interesting questions about what would you do to survive.
