The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead Television series with post-apocalyptic them are getting a lot of attention from both adult and young-adult viewers. The Walking Dead, developed by Frank Darabont, is one of popular series with this theme these days. Since the first episode, the show gained millions of viewers from all around the world. The show is about the survival of a group of people lead by a sheriff named Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) in a world filled with zombies or what they call as “walkers”.
