Fear the Walking Dead on AMC

[Mad Dash]

Did anybody see it? Aside from the wonderful zombiness of it all one of the main characters is actually a Heroin addict going through what I would say is one of the most realistic depictions of how hopeless this disease can be. I see a lot of TV/Movies that get it wrong, you know what I mean you watch it and you are like HAHA BS that would never happen! This (aside from the zombies of course) actually did a great job and the kid reminded me TO THE T of one of my old friends/backstabbing junkie (stole my car when I let him crash at my place after his parents kicked him out and $300.00 and the way I got to find out about it was at 2:00 am when I thought he was sleeping on my couch the police called me asking if he had permission to be driving my vehicle because he had just been arrested for a DWI).

Sorry kinda went off topic in my own thread, but ya they did a great job and I can't wait to see where the show goes from here. Is this going to "save" him from using? Or will he start looting pharmacies? Will he suffer more WDs in the show? Who knows... but I am excited to find out!

I really liked how they depicted it too. And also, as a user and a huge Walking Dead fan, I've always wanted to see how an addict would fare in the zombie apocalypse, it's awesome that they're finally doing it.
