Walking Dead is a great show. However, I do not watch it because of the zombies. The main draw of the show is the survival aspect of the survivors. The zombies are just a vehicle.
I try to explain my enthusiasm for the show by telling everyone it’s not primarily about the undead, but, rather, it’s a show about how human beings might be expected to act in an apocolyptic, end-of-world stuation.
All I get are glassy-eyed stares.
