The Walking Dead (TV series)/YMMV: Difference between revisions

* [[Award Snub]]: Despite getting positive reviews from critics (though generally regarded as being inferior in regards to pacing, characterization, dialogue, etc in comparison to AMC's [[Mad Men|other]] [[Breaking Bad|series]]) and gaining great ratings from audiences, the only Emmys it received were two nominations for Visual Effects and Sound Editing and a win for Makeup (which ''was'' really impressive, but still...)

* [[Awesome Music]]: Bear McCreary's music for the series; also, the use of John Murphy's "The Surface of the Sun" in episode five, "Wildfire", and Wye Oak's "Civilian" in the season 2 trailer.

* [[Darkness-Induced Audience Apathy]]: After awhile, the abject horrors are thrown at the audience with such extreme regularity that they eventually cause a sense of dull "Oh like I didn't see ''that'' coming" instead of shock or sadness.

* [[Designated Protagonist Syndrome]]: Literally. The moment Rick meets up with the group, he proclaimed their leader evidently solely on the basis of his being the Sheriff.
