The AMC television series "The Walking Dead", based on the comic book series of the same name, premiered in 2010. It centers around a group of people in the state of Georgia who struggle to survive and adapt in a post-apocalyptic world filled with zombies (here called "walkers") and opposing groups of survivors who are often more dangerous than the walkers themselves. The popularity of the series has led to a spin-off franchise comprising an aftershow ("Talking Dead"), a companion television series ("Fear the Walking Dead", a prequel with different characters from the source material), video games (e.g., "The Walking Dead: The Game (Season One)", ' and ') webisodes (including "The Talking Dead" webisodes and the "Fear the Walking Dead" web series), and numerous parodies and spoofs.
