4. The Not So Modern Family
When the cast was announced, some details emerged of the central familial set up that the show will focus on: clearly this will be a tighter unit than the growing band of survivors on The Walking Dead, made more complex by the fact that they're all related to one another and struggling with more conventionally complex dynamics. And this family has dysfunction in spades: they're older than the Grimes, led by the mother and her fiance, their older teenage children, as well as his ex and their teenage son. Tensions, understandably are high, and the family is about to break down thanks to drugs, illness, self-harm and all of those delightful dramas that play out between fractured families. It will be intriguing to see how that dynamic plays out when the chips are down, and whether zombies are actually a good remedy for family tensions.
