The Walking Dead | Spotlight on Carl: Raised by the Apocalypse

Here's the second Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) spotlight this week, this one coming from AMC who rounds up the one-eyed boy's most iconic moments from eight seasons of The Walking Dead. The franchise returns in October.

The Walking Dead is the TV series adaptation of the Image Comics series created by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard.

Developed by filmmaker Frank Darabount in 2010 for AMC TV, The Walking Dead quickly became the number one franchise for the cable network. The show followed the story arcs of the comics somewhat faithfully, starting with sheriff Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) who survives a gunshot wound that puts him in a coma. When we wakes up the world he knew is gone. In this new world, the dead rise as flesh-eating walkers and Rick embarks on a journey to find his family and lead them to safety.

Rick eventually reconnects with his wife (Sarah Wayne Callies), his son (Chandler Riggs), his best friend Shane (Jon Bernthal) and the crew of survivors they've made camp with. That initial groupw includes Daryl (Norman Reedus), Carol (Melissa McBride), Glenn (Steven Yeun), Merle (Michael Rooker) and many more. The show spares no one their brutal fate is its massive cast of characters struggle to survive a world of decay and horror.
