Walking Dead Presentation

2. Purpose
The Walking Dead is an American horror, but also shown in the United
Kingdom on Fox. The show makes me feel on edge most of the
episode and that’s what I feel like about it because you need to watch
each episode to really know what’s going on.

3. Form and Style
• The show is a long form TV show running for an hour each episode.
• It has a big cast but only a couple of main characters.
• The season will have one main story line but there will be different
stories throughout the episodes.
• Themes of the show would be; survival, death and problems.

4. Content
• Walking Dead has so many main characters, that get killed off
or brought in during a season.
• The first season and half of season five is in the Atlanta metro
area and surrounding countryside, and the second half of
season five is set in Alexandria, Virginia.

5. Meaning
The show is purely for entertain, however you get debate that you get
other meanings from the main character Rick Grimes trying to get order
back and rebuild society.

6. Genre
The genre is horror with a subgenre of zombies. The idea came from
the comic book series The Walking Dead. But the TV series is very
popular and brings in a lot of new ideas to zombie apocalypse films or
TV shows, and I think there is no other TV show or film like it.

7. Target Audience
The Walking Dead is for 18 year olds and over but I know a lot of
people that are 15 – 20 that watch the show.

8. Frequency
• The show is on once a week for around 16 episodes.
• Viewers will usually watch it every week or catch up on it on Amazon
Prime or Netflix.
• I personally think you have to watch every episode to understand
what’s happening in the series.
