Walking Dead, The (TV Series)
Aroview: The undying zombie genre reaches the long-form TV format in this riveting, expertly studied AMC series about the aftermath apocalyptic events, where a lone sheriff (Andrew Lincoln) must regroup with a group of survivors to stave off the now-undead victims of a viral outbreak.
Based on the acclaimed graphic novel by Robert Kirkman, this generously favours character development and the durable 'human' aspects of drama to deliver a smart, pragmatic take on zombies amok.

5 stars (Exceptional) One of my favourite series in a long time, this is as gritty and realistic as zombie films get (the production values of this series are on par with a feature film). Pity season 2 hasn't kept up the high standards of the first. ~Tom H
2 stars (Good Try) Season 1 - the problem it has is making zombies interesting after a surfeit of zombie films - the zombies that appear are just the standard normal fare.The living are boring.The best parts are the shots of deserted streets. ~Tubbs
