I love this show. I really do. I know it is a very unCatherine-like show. I began watching it on a whim before the 2nd part of season 2 aired. Ryan got me hooked. I watched two episodes and I was in. Here are some of the many reasons I love this show so much:
~the writing. The writing is absolutely excellent. It is unpredictable. I love the conversations. The sweet ones, the intense ones. I never want to miss a line.
~the acting. Once again, superb. The actors have matured or changed (or died) throughout the seasons. The actors are on a journey as they adapt to the new world of a zombie apocalypse. It is exciting and scary to watch their relationships with each other and the tensions that arise in their group and between other groups.
~the symbolism. these are the little things you see or notice as you watch, like the spiritual hues.
~the cinematography. There are times where the camera angles or close ups make a scene.
~the laying down of a life for a friend (or helping each other). There have been numerous times where this has happened. Whether it be saving someone from a zombie (or humans), or giving yourself over to them for another to survive. These are the moments I love.
~the smiles and hope. I love the times when Beth sings, and the other moments of peace in a world where peace would seem to be impossible.
~the humanity. I love the true portrayal of the depravity of man.
~the community. The group is and dependent on each other. They know each other and have to trust one another. This can cause problems at times, but it makes for good writing.
~Daryl and his cross-bow. That's all I have to say about that.
