The Walking Dead was created by the director Frank Darabont and based on the cartoon series of the same name by Robert Kirkman. It follows the trials and tribulations of Rick (played by Andrew Lincoln, whose credits include Love Actually) and his friends as they struggle to survive in a world infested by zombies. The drama is tense and slow-moving, and certainly not to everybody's liking,
but in its first two seasons The Walking Dead became one of the United
States' most popular TV drama.
