So THE WALKING DEAD is back on, and I often get asked, "What do you think of THE WALKING DEAD?"
Let me be honest, I thought it was okay, I only watched the first three, maybe four, seasons because some of the characters I liked from the graphic novels are not alive anymore. I get it, Daryl is awesome, and no he isn't in the graphic novels. But in the graphic novels Andrea is a total badass, Rick's daughter...don't get me started, The Governor was way more interesting as a character study, and honestly in both I really am just waiting for Carl to die. I'd so much like him to go away, and I'd so much like for Rick to stop being such a big baby. I watched the "look at the flower" episode, and I thought it was interesting, but honestly there is very little to make me want to watch the characters when they are much more poignant in the graphic novels. It's not even that I dislike zombie shows or movies, I mean have you watched Z Nation? It's awesome! Also, while iZombie has some weird humor (I think some is okay but lets stop making zombies romantic characters or living humans with normal lives), I think it's only okay right now.
Yesterday was Valentine's Day. To some this is a day about family, others it's about the partner you are with, or if you're single you may want to kill people. Personally, I think there doesn't need to be just one day to show your family or the person you love that you love them. Tell them and show them every day! I mean, I can go to a nice romantic dinner any time I choose, all I have to do is make the reservation and choose. And really that heart shape, I don't think that's cool. If I am going to send you a Valentine I'm gonna make sure the heart on the card looks like a damn anatomical heart!
These thoughts lead to a question in my head... why are we trying so hard to be in love? There are dating apps, and websites, and groups, and it's insane. Love should just happen. Sure it's hard to meet people, but that's because we are trying too hard. I love the one I'm with. I found this person on total accident. That's how you find people. Love is something we all want, but how about we love ourselves. If something happened to my partner tomorrow, I'd be devastated, but I wouldn't have to immediately jump out and find a new partner. I can be by myself. It would be hard, but I'd do it.
Of course I might see about cryogenically freezing my partners body so if zombies do rise I can turn him into my zombie love slave.
