I had trouble getting into The Walking Dead and Im having the same felling about this show.
<><><><
Try this, it worked for me.
My wife was away for the weekend visiting her mom, the kids are mostly out on their own, and I was home nursing an injury which required the use of pain meds.
They were showing a WD marathon on AMC (probably in advance of season 2) so, with nowhere to go (I don’t drive while on oxycodone), I watch the entire first season all doped up.
After that, absolutely addicted.
To the show.
The expectation that the audience should be on psychotropic drugs in order to appreciate the performance is not so much The Walking Dead, it’s the Grateful Dead.
I dreamt I was at Woodstock one time and Jimi Hendrix was my Monday morning alarm clock. You want to talk about Walking Dead.
