This is very good news, I’ve enjoyed the few books of this series that I’ve run into, and I’m always up for some zombie survival televisions series. Has there been a tv show that’s focused on surviving a zombie apocalypse?


Man, so excited! AMC does great originals, and this one should not be any different.
“Has there been a tv show that’s focused on surviving a zombie apocalypse?”
Isn’t that pile of shit Glen Beck program based upon zombies and apocalypses?
Definitely looking forward to this.
