12 Insane Things You Didn't Know About The Walking Dead

7. The Walking Dead Has Permission To Drop F-Bombs - But Only Twice!

So, let's imagine you're stuck in a world infested with Walkers. Your life is a constant struggle, and you're always getting into trouble with the fellow survivors you encounter. Overall, you're having a pretty lousy time. So, what's someone to do in a situation like that? Well, you'd probably at least want to let a couple of F-bombs loose.

This is something AMC managed to pick up on in 2018, as they introduced a new policy that gave The Walking Dead (and spin-off Fear The Walking Dead) permission to use the infamous F-word twice per season.

Of course, it seems ludicrous that a show as openly violent and pessimistic as this would be required to avoid something as "evil" as foul language. But, in the world of TV networks, it's quite advantageous of AMC to allow the show to use it.

Naturally, these naughty words are censored on most streaming services. Still, at least these struggling survivors have permission to let their frustration fly, so long as they keep stock of how many times they do it.
