Who is YOUR Favorite 'The Walking Dead' Character?



I think the vast majority of genre fans have come to truly love, The Walking Dead. While a few have quipped that the series hit a lull late in the first season, I would disagree, completely. The action has remained constent though controlled, the gore is as gratifying as ever and the character development is as remarkable now as it was upon the first initial airing of the very first episode.

Through nearly ten total episodes thus far (between both seasons) we’ve seen seemingly gnificant characters killed, disappear and on occaon transform into the undead. We’ve been surprised, and we’ve been saddened, and that’s part of what makes this show so special; the humanity behind it.

I now propose a general question to the Bidite nation, who is your favorite Walking Dead character, and why?

Rick Grimes The Hero



Shane Walsh The Shady dekick



Lori Grimes The Confused Wife and Mother



Andrea The Depressed and Unpredictable



Dale Horvath The Wise Man Who Rediscovered Hope



Glenn The Charismatic City Guide



Daryl Dixon

The Disgruntled Brother With a Secret Soft de



Merle Dixon The Fireball Brother



T-Dog

The Follower



Carol Peletier The Victim



Morgan The Compasonate Informer



So fill us in, who is your favorite character to appear in AMC's "The Walking Dead"? Got someone in mind I didn't list? Chime in!

BTW, I'm going with Daryl all the way. Reedus kicks ass, and it's nice to see there's a little sympathy buried in Daryl, despite the rugged outward appearance.

In the comics, Andrea 100%. In the show, either Dale or Glenn.

The show truly makes Andrea look craptastic, which disappoints me quite a bit. She's such an awesome badass in the comics.

Dale is a pretty cool character in the AMC series. He's genuine, caring, wise and looks out for others. I've grown attached to him. Glenn is fun to follow and AMC's Glenn is exactly like how I imagined him in the comics. I also really like Morgan and his son. The first episode was absolutely amazing and I felt for Morgan and Duane.

The show is pretty amazing, but it's really super difficult for me not to compare to the comics, which I love so much more.

unfortunately ive never checked out the comics. Is it an ongoing run, or a mini series type of deal? Recommendations onn where to pick them up?

It's about an 89 comic series. You can get the graphic novels which puts 10 or so comics or so into a "Book 1, book 2, etc" collection on Amazon for $20.

I have a couple of them, they are fairly good reads so far.

I'd probably be a mix of Dale and Morgan. Compasonate survivor...with rifle and scope ;)

I dislike all the characters, which is why I hate The Walking Dead , because it's all characters, all the time. It got really bearing after the third episode. I tried watching the season 2 pilot and giving the show another chance, but hated that as well. I even guessed who shot ****** at the end because it's so predictable.

Daryl is also my favorite

Would like to see a future episode focus a little on his past as well as his relationship with his brother.

I guess I worded that incorrectly. What I meant was that I think the characters are interesting and likable, but the whole show is about their personal life and their soap-opera problems, and I could really care less. Out of all of them, I too think Daryl is the best. If they had a whole spin-off show about him, by himself, in the zombie apocalypse, than that would be something I would tune in to for sure.

If you think about it though, Dawn of the Dead followed the same character development exploration before zombie war approach as well. As did Night, to a lesser degree, though the social commentary was far more pronounced.
