“The Walking Dead”

Have you ever watched a show more original or unpredictable? Yes. There’s so many plot twists, ranging anywhere from a character dying to one  surviving…, etc. There are high hopes for season 8 and fans are looking forward to what creator Robert Kirkman has left for us to enjoy. Who doesn’t love a show about zombies but without any zombie screentime?
