Because people expected the world to end soon and they could use all the survival shit as a guidance manual.

Now that the world hasnt ended. retards feel like they got ripped off for investing in it.

It actually was predictive programming for the planned zombie outbreak. But they had to cancel it because TWD made everyone too prepared.

Because it just devolved into relationship drama with zombies as a backdrop

First 5 seasons are good, it fell off during 6 and by the time Negan was introduced it never recovered

It's one of the most inconsistent show of all time, well that is until around season 8 where it went to absolute dogshit the whole way.
But the seasons and episodes before that varies so much, there some really great moment and characters, but at time some of the most stupid and lazy writing I've seen.

It has its moments but it mostly wastes your time. Andrew Lincoln is kino and it's a shame he's stuck in this series that never ends.

Why do you need human antagonists in a setting where zombies have just toppled civilization?

It's probably more fun for the viewers and easier to write too.
Imagine a series that goes all in on survival aspect, looting stores, hunting, tending to camp and trying to not die of exposure, zombies are only ever seen from far away and become more of a boogie men in later episodes

Because it wasn't. It was a middling show that had a few good scenes per season for the first five or so. Then it just got mid all the way.

>(picrel)incompetent, psychotic, psychopathic group that has to be saved from starvation is welcomed as leaders of community that has thrived for years by being cautious
>S1- Glen drives alarm blaring car from downtown zombieland to safe place. Is still trusted.
The show was always shit
