‘Walking Dead’ breaks the mold of zombie idiocy

Imagine if you woke up in a hospital bed after being in a coma for several weeks. There are no doctors, no nurses, no other patients. Only dead bodies. As you exit, you find no other people, only the decaying remains of society. Your family is gone, your friends are dead or worse, and the world you knew has collapsed in the biggest way possible. No more internet, no more electricity, hot water, or grocery stores.
