Here are 5 things you may not know about 'The Walking Dead' show.
AMC’s The Walking Dead returned for a 5th season with 17.29 million people tuning in. Here are 5 things you may not know about the popular zombie drama:
Number 5: Did you ever notice that the word zombie is never used in any episodes? According to Robert Kirkman, the show exists in a dimension where zombie movies have never happened. Instead, they are called 'Walkers,' 'Biters,' 'Dead Heads', etc.
Number 4: Carl’s stunt double is actually a 31 year old woman named Ashley.
Number 3: The one-eyed dog is a hero in real life. Named Dooley in the real world, the pup lost his eye defending his owner during a carjacking.
Number 2: The Rick Grimes character is said to be from King County, Georgia. This is a nod to Stephen King, who is good friends with creator Frank Darabont who was fired by AMC in 2011.
Number 1: Actors that are cast as ‘walkers’ actually go to “Zombie School” where they learn how to walk and move like a zombie.
