The narrative begins with Rick Grimes, a sheriff’s deputy who wakes from a coma in a desolate hospital to find civilization collapsed and the world overrun by flesh-eating zombies, locally dubbed "walkers". Rick embarks on a perilous journey across the rural landscapes and urban ruins of Georgia to locate his missing wife and son, eventually stepping into a leadership role for a tight-knit band of survivors. ​More than just a standard monster-of-the-week thriller, the series functions primarily as a gritty psychological study of human nature under extreme pressure. As the seasons progress, the group navigates the constant, lingering threat of the undead, but they quickly discover that living humans often pose a far greater danger. The survivors are forced to establish fortified communities, face ruthless rival factions like the Saviors and the Whisperers, and constantly grapple with agonizing moral dilemmas. The central tension focuses on how far individuals can go to protect their loved ones without completely sacrificing their humanity and compassion.
