Before Apocalypse Now
This is Rick Grimes played by Andrew Lincoln. He is the main character of the show and in The Walking Dead comics. He has two children, Carl and Judith. Rick has went from the sheriff, who tries to be fair and do the right thing, to a man who will protect his family and friends by ANY MEAN NECESSARY!
This is Carl Grimes, played by Chandler Riggs. He is also in the comic books and he is Ricks' son.
We have watched this little grow up on this show! He has had his ups and downs with being shot twice, killing his mother and trying to prove to his dad that he is capable of surviving.
Now!!! We have Mr. Daryl Dixon, played by Norman Reedus! He is your crossbow carrying, motorcycle riding, redneck of the apocalypse. Now, Daryl is not in the comics but he is an awesome addition to the show. He has been loved since the beginning.
This is Carol Peletier, played by Melissa McBride. Carol is in the comic books and has come a long way from where she was. Carol used to be an abused wife and mother. Carol lost her husband and daughter and has not been the same. Carol can bake cookies and threaten you at the same time, and makes good on those threats.
Glenn Rhee, played by Steven Yeun, was a pizza delivery person before the apocalypse. Glenn is also in the comics and is the help everyone no matter what they do guy. I mean he is just a good guy!
Ok so these are who I consider to be main characters. They have been with us since season 1 and are still around.
I consider them lucky because the writers don't mind killing off a main character at any time. Sometimes the writers follow the comic book other times they choose to do something different. Which we have seen so often.
I put the season 1 pictures beside the season 6 pictures to show you their progression into the apocalypse and how they have changed so much.
There are others characters that are on the show that are important. Michonne the katana skilled ex lawyer and Maggie, the wife of Glenn and the farmers daughter, whom we all saw her entire family slaughtered on the show.
Until Next Time......... Walker Fan OUT!!!!

Carl is one of my least favorite on the show.. he is so meh sometimes I wanna punch him in the face. (yes he makes me that violent lol)
ReplyDeleteOh my!!! I think Carl will soon have a bigger part on the show. You know, since his eye is gone and Neegan has arrived. We'll have to wait and see. Sometimes I feel that his role on the show is irrelevant and they should have killed him off, but they have tried and he is a persistent one!
