The Walking Dead (Steven Yeun)

I have to say that after watching the first few episodes of this show, it's the first time ever that I've seen an Asian-American male play a normal Asian-American male on TV.

Steven Yeun as Glenn is an amazing role put in realistic situations (well, as real as a zombie apocalypse can possibly be).

I especially like that he's part of the group and that they actually deal with racism in his role, instead of making the entire group of survivors oblivious to race as they all have token members.

Has anyone else seen this show?

Re: The Walking Dead (Steven Yeun)

Yeah, I'm watching it. He's probably the most normal person there.

Re: The Walking Dead (Steven Yeun)

ya, this is a good role. i'm glad they didn't whitewash his part when they adapted the comic.

Re: The Walking Dead (Steven Yeun)

Yep fourthing the good role comments. He's resourceful, witty, and actually important to the series. On other media sites that i've read a lot of people like his character.

Re: The Walking Dead (Steven Yeun)

So far, Season 2 has been better than Season 1, where only the premiere and final episode of Season 1 were good while the rest of the episodes in Season 1 were pretty meh. But, I was getting annoyed this season about the way they were treating Glenn, where they basically forgot all about him and gave him barely any dialouge while everybody else in his group got some storyline.

But, the show finally redeemed itself when Asian American Glenn has sex with a hot White woman, the farmers' daughter although they also had to undercut Glenn's sex appeal when she tells him she's having sex with him because its not like she has any other options.

Too bad he'll probably have to die now because he had sex with a white woman.
