The Walking Dead: 10 Most Shocking Moments Of 2015

Picking out The Walking Dead’s most shocking moments is a bit like selecting Donald Trump’s 10 most moronic quotes. There’s just so many of them, and without shocking moments, the show is nothing. It’s entire reputation is built on coming up with new, creative ways to have us slamming our palms into our faces, much like Trump.

Fortunately The Walking Dead isn’t a real thing (spoiler?) so we’re happy for Robert Kirkman & Co. to continually build our hopes up, make us enjoy their series, and nonchalantly rip our hearts out by any means necessary. Deaths are the easiest way to achieve maximum fan outcry, but that’s not the only way we’re shocked.

Then there are other moments in the show that don’t necessarily change the plot but still raise eyebrows around the world. Quirky moments or unique themes can often be just as startling to watch.

2015 saw the last half of Season 5 and the opening run of Season 6 offer up some pieces of insanity, several glimpses of just how far the world has descended into savagery, and one episode provided the most brutal death ever seen on The Walking Dead, and quite possibly in modern TV. Can you handle it?
