The Walking Dead is an American post-apocalyptic horror television series for AMC based on the comic book series by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard. The series features a large ensemble cast as survivors of a zombie apocalypse, trying to stay alive under near-constant threat of attacks from zombies, colloquially known as "walkers". However, with the fall of humanity, these survivors also face conflict from other living survivors who have formed groups and communities with their own sets of laws and morals, often leading to hostile conflict between the human communities. Andrew Lincoln played the series's lead character, Rick Grimes, until his departure during the ninth season. Other long-standing cast members have included Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Lauren Cohan, Danai Gurira, Josh McDermitt and Christian Serratos.
The series is exclusively broadcast on AMC in the United States and internationally through the Fox Networks Group.
The series premiered on October 31, 2010. The tenth season premiered on
October 6, 2019, and has been renewed for an eleventh season. AMC
stated their intent to continue further development of the series and
related media. A spinoff series Fear the Walking Dead premiered on August 23, 2015, and is renewed for a sixth season. A second spinoff, The Walking Dead: World Beyond, is set to premiere in 2020. AMC has announced plans for three films to follow Rick's story after Lincoln's departure.
The Walking Dead is produced by AMC Studios within the state of Georgia, with most filming taking place in the large outdoor spaces of Riverwood Studios near Senoia, Georgia. The series was adapted from the comic by Frank Darabont, who also served as the showrunner
for the first season. However, conflicts between Darabont and AMC
forced his departure from the series, and which is currently subject to
multiple lawsuits by Darabont and others. Following Darabont, Glen Mazzara, Scott M. Gimple, and Angela Kang have all served as showrunners.
Beginning with its third season, The Walking Dead
has attracted the most 18- to 49-year-old viewers of any cable or
broadcast television series, though viewership has declined in later
seasons. In addition, although the series has been well received by
critics in its earlier seasons, reception has also declined as the
series has progressed.[3] It has been nominated for several awards, including the Writers Guild of America Award for New Series and the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series – Drama.[4][5]
Season 2 (2011–12)
Traveling from Atlanta, Rick's group takes shelter at Hershel Greene's farm while they search for Carol's missing daughter, Sophia.
Tension between the survivors worsen after it is discovered that
Hershel has kept friends and family turned into zombies, including
Sophia, in his barn. Rick learns that Shane and Lori were romantically
involved at the outset of the apocalypse, and Shane and Rick's
friendship becomes increasingly unhinged when Lori reveals that she is
pregnant. Rick is eventually forced to kill Shane in self-defense. The
noise draws zombies, forcing Rick's group and Hershel's surviving family
to evacuate the farm.[9]
