The Walking Dead: 32 Behind-The-Scenes Photos To Make You Love The Show Even More

The Walking Dead wrapped up its fifth season this week, leaving us to celebrate its excellently intense season-conclusion as TWD withdrawal sets in. But before that happens, we thought we'd take a look back at some of the excellent behind-the-scenes glimpses AMC has made available for Season 5. From goofy moments to bizarre zombie photos and touching hugs between cast members, these Walking Dead set photos make us love the AMC zombie drama even more...

A bit of goofiness to kick this off.
