I think those of us who haven't seen it will forgive you. I know I will. By the time I get around to watching it, I'll have forgotten anyway. Then I'll be like "Oh my god...they killed Hershel!" and I'll laugh at my joke (someone has to). I gotta second Critical's comment. It's just a hard show to watch. I binge watch my shows but I'm a serious chicken when it comes to scary stuff. We have these huge, uncurtained windows on the first floor of the house and I get up when it's dark and it's basically just me. Anyway, ever since I saw World War Z, that scene where the zombie slams its head repeatedly against the windshield, I keep imagining one is going to run up and do that every morning when I come downstairs. So I have to be really particular about even mildly scary stuff (most esp ghosts but zombie apocalypse will do) cause it permeates my real world. Including dreams. So I take Walking Dead an episode at a time. Though last I watched I got the impression the show was headed more towards evil people. The zombies were just becoming slow-moving wild animals to be watchful of.
the zombies are merely a device to facilitate the purpose of the plot, which is basically about how tenuous civilization is. all it take is no electricity for a few weeks and wham.....anarchy.
