A pretty silly name, or is it?

Ever since the title of the prequel-spinoff of The Walking Dead was announced, the reaction to it has been pretty universal. It’s too long and unwieldy. Who the hell is gonna say all that? It’s dumb, why did they call it that? And trust me, I was right there with all the title naysayers until tonight. After watching the third episode, “Dog,” I turned to my husband and said “This show is scarier than the other one.” It began to dawn on me why the clunky title is so apt and why the show couldn’t be called anything else.
