Walking Dead

I had watched a couple of episodes at the end of last season’s Walking Dead and got hooked. So, before the current season began, I went through a marathon watching of the last several seasons to catch up on the background of the story and how it got to where it is.



Just for giggles I also watched a couple of episodes of this season’s Z Nation.



There are quite a few similarities between the two shows. Both, of course, are plagued by animated and hungry dead people. Both have a group of survivors thrown together by circumstances. Both groups have greater motivation for survival other than personal reasons. See, both groups have someone among them with a potential for a “cure” to the problem. But, there, the similarities end. And, in that dissimilarity it would seem the likelihood of success between both groups would be with the Walking Dead group. On the Z Nation, you see, some dead people can RUN!

Now, since it’s me writing this post, the following should not be surprising. Point of Fact: Under the timeline of the show it’s been a year and a half since the outbreak began. If ethanol gasoline was a part of the “reality” of Walking Dead, everybody would be walking.



Think about it.
