Summary:
The TV series The Walking Dead developed by Frank Darabont is based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman. The Walking Dead portrays life weeks, months and eventually years following a zombie apocalypse. The main character and leader, former police officer Rick Grimes, his family and a group of other survivors find themselves constantly on the move through out the seven seasons, looking for a safe and secure home. But Rick soon realises that the world they are now living in has changed. He discovers that the staggering fear of the survivors can be more deadly than the zombies walking among them. ''Fight the dead, fear the living''

Personal Response:
Statement - A character I related to was Carol
Example - For example, in the first and second seasons Carol was a weak, helpless, old lady who couldn't protect herself or anyone else. However, from the third season on wards, Carol adapts to the new world and gets stronger and more ruthless.
Explanation - Losing her daughter to a viscous zombie attack in season two really made her a lot more hard, heartless and aggressive which was needed to survive in the new world that the're living in. I have adapted to new things before in the past. I personally think that I would be able to change and adapt enough to survive a zombie apocalypse like Carol did.
Your Link - I think this relates to the real world because there are plenty of real life scenarios where normal people have to change themselves and there lives due to a certain situation.

Personal Response:
Statement - An important lesson to learn from this TV series is to never stop fighting and to never give up.
Example - For example, in season seven where Negan - a bad guy with a massive army - kills two of the survivors and captures one, as well as taking all there stuff and making them work for him.
Explanation - During the last few episodes of season seven, Rick and the few survivors remaining come up with a genius plan to fight back and kill Negan and his army. However after there plan gets over powered by the amount of people Negan has on his side, Negan decides to kill Ricks son Carl right in front of him before the people of Alexandra and The Hill Top - two committees that were thought to be weak and useless - saved the day by shooting down almost all of Negans army. Together they kept fighting and fighting until every last one of them had either ran away or died.
Your Link - I think this TV series relates to some of the people in the real world who might have a really hard life but they never give up and they don't stop fighting until they get what they want.
