12 Best Actors In The Walking Dead

2. Melissa McBride

Carol. I wouldn't say she's the most liked person in The Walking Dead, but in my eyes she's comfortably the best character in the history of the show. Her transformation from being an abused wife to merciless killer has been staggering, and out of every character, she's got her hands dirtier than any, resulting in stunning television. Melissa McBride should be given maximum credit for her performances, regardless of what 'mode' she's in. Her scenes with Lizzie and Mika were tremendous, and in Season 5 and 6 she's kicked it up a notch yet again, from threatening Jessie's young son to butchering the invading wolves. Carol has already been confirmed as safe by the show's creators, and that should last a long time.
