If you are having trouble formulating a concise log-line for your story, chances are your plot is suffering from DGD (Dramatic Grammar Deficiency), or - worse - that you are failing to grasp the emotional logic of what is actually going on as evidenced by the actions and interactions of the characters. If this is not the case, then basically what you have to do is, look at the beginning of the second act of your story. That is the main chunk of it. You imply Act 1 with your protagonist’s adjective of manner that contrasts them against the new world of Act 2 they have dived deep into. You also must imply the consequences of the protagonist failing in your log-line to make things not boring when you tell someone about it so they’ll want to know more.
That’s literally all there is to it.

3. Some quick info.
The Walking Dead is an American horror
drama television series developed by
Frank Darabont, based on the comic book
series of the same name by Robert
Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie
Adlard. Andrew Lincoln plays the show's
lead character, sheriff's deputy Rick
Grimes, who awakens from a coma
discovering a world overrun by zombies,
commonly referred to as "walkers”.
Grimes reunites with his family and
becomes the leader of a group he forms
with other survivors. Together they
struggle to survive and adapt in a post-
apocalyptic world filled with walkers and
opposing groups of survivors, who are
often more dangerous than the walkers
themselves.
4. The show
• Development
The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman is also an executive producer and
writer of the TV series. On January 20, 2010, AMC officially announced that it
had ordered a pilot for a possible series adapted from The Walking Dead comic
book series, with Frank Darabont and Gale Anne Hurd acting as executive
producers and Darabont writing and directing. The entire series was pre-
ordered based just on the strength of the source material, the television
scripts, and Darabont's involvement. In January 2010 a review of the pilot
episode's script attracted further attention. The pilot began filming in Atlanta,
Georgia on May 15, 2010 after AMC had officially ordered a six episode first
season. The series' remaining episodes began filming on June 2, 2010 with
Darabont serving as show runner. On August 31, 2010, Darabont reported
that The Walking Dead had been picked up for a second season, with
production to begin in February 2011. On November 8, 2010, AMC confirmed
that there would be a second season consisting of 13 episodes. He would also
like to include some of the "environmental elements" that take place during
Volume 2 of Kirkman's book.

Negan's victim is revealed to be Abraham, who is beaten to death in front of Rick's group.
Daryl angrily lunges at Negan for taunting Rosita over Abraham's death, prompting Negan to
kill Glenn as well. Negan tests Rick's resolve by forcing him to hack off Carl's arm, but stops
him once he sees Rick's eyes showing his broken spirit. Negan and his crew then leave with
Daryl as hostage, while Sasha volunteers to take Maggie to the Hilltop to recover, along with
the bodies of Glenn and Abraham.

6. Hyper-reality
The walking dead follows postmodernity,
especially when it comes to hyper-
reality. One reason for this would be due
to the timing that the program is set.
The program is set in a post apocalyptic
period. However, it is set in our time
period which goes against the norms of
how we really live.
Baudrillard came up with the concept of
hyper-reality and said that it was up to
the audience to decide whether or not it
is real. He developed the idea of
simulacrum which is what this would
come under.
7. Hybridity
The walking dead follows themes of hybridity
as it follows the genres of horror, drama,
fantasy and comedy. For example, the lead
antagonist “Neegan” continuously uses humour
as a way to patronise and demean the other
characters. Horror is continuously used when it
follows the zombies “walkers” in the program.
Drama is used when following the lives of the
characters and the domestic problems that they
face- like the relationship between Maggie and
Glenn and Rick and his children. Whilst the
entire idea of an apocalypse and zombie
outbreak continually links to the genre of
fantasy and the supernatural.
8. The Walking Dead
• Throughout the majority of the episode there is a constant number of jumps
between flashbacks of previous events and the ongoing events that the
characters of Rick and Neagan are facing. These jumps and a blur of what scenes
are happening at that specific time- confusing the audience and again getting
them directly involved in the decisions made throughout the storyline.
• The role of gender in the show is highlights throughout this episode. Majority of
the villains and enemies of the protagonist group that the show is based around
are male. This gives them and therefore their gender significantly more control-
emphasised more with the leader of the ‘saviours’, Neagan also being male.
Furthermore Neagan personifies his chosen weapon of the bat surrounded in
barbed wire as female- showing his views on women as objects. Finally it can
also be considered that is not gender that determines the power but instead the
number of each group. This is shown as the main group include both male and
female characters who are all kneeling down at the same level, captured by the
saviours.
