AMC's upcoming new series The Walking Dead has everyone talking -- and with good reason, since it's the first regular zombie show on TV, it's based on a great comic book and the early footage looks amazing. And withThe Hollywood Reporter asking if zombies are the next vampires (even though their comeback started way before the current vampire craze), we decided that America needs more zombies on television. But don't bother coming up with new series -- just convert existing series to a new zombie format! Like so!
Grey's Anatomy
Premise: In a dark future, the doctors of Seattle Grace and Mercy West Hospitals have united under one roof at Seattle Grace, following the loss of Mercy West to the zombie plague. Now they feverishly work to save the gnawed patients who come to them, because if they don't succeed, they'll just be adding another soldier to the growing zombie army that waits outside their doors to get at the tasty medical-school-trained brains inside.
New Title: Greyish Anatomy
Mad Men
Premise: In a world where zombies crawled out of the carnage of World War II, the undead fought on our side in Korea and have become a part of society by the 1960s. As a result, ad men have to direct their campaigns at both the living and the undead, depending on the product. Don Draper, who's secretly a zombie, heads up the otherwise all-human Sterling Cooper team, and has to hide his feelings when a client says he doesn't want to market his perfume directly at zombie women, even though it tests the best with zombie focus groups.
New Title: Dead Men
Chuck
Premise: During the Great Zombie War, computer technician Chuck Bartowski accidentally uploads the Intersect, a vast library of intelligence gathered by the military about the zombie menace, into his brain. With his ability to access zombie data and zombie-killing strategies, he is made a field agent, but Chuck quickly discovers a downside to his newfound abilities. It seems that the Intersect has made his brain the tastiest brain on Earth, causing any zombie within smelling distance to converge on his location. This makes his presence in the field a double-edged sword -- he's a valuable asset, but he also puts his teammates at risk.
New Title: Chunks
Life Unexpected
Premise: When teenage foster child Lux loses her sixth family in a row to a zombie attack, she makes her way to the zombie-infested city of Portland to find her birth parents. When she finally tracks down her mother, Cate, the familiar voice of the Kill All Zombies show on Survivor Radio, she's overjoyed, but her father Baze has unfortunately been a zombie for months. Lux and Cate keep Baze hidden at Cate's home, but can these three somehow form a non-traditional family unit? And does Cate still hold feelings for her undead ex?
New Title: Bites Unexpected
Law & Order: SVU (Special Victims Unit)
Premise: In an alternate New York City, zombies live among us, having learned to disguise their non-living status and their hunger for brains, and zombie-based offenses are considered especially heinous. The dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious attacks are members of an elite squad known as the Survivors of Zombies Unit. These are their stories.
New Title: Gnaw & Order: SZU
Friday Night Lights
Premise: Looking for football players who can follow orders, not overthink a play on the field and tear through a defensive line like tissue paper, Coach Eric Taylor finds a promising prospect named Tim Riggins. Tim is a zombie, and he does exactly what he's told, as long as he gets a tasty brain before each game. Over the course of the season, Tim converts the entire team to zombies, and Coach Taylor finds himself slowly shuffling towards the championship.
New Title: Friday Night Bites
The Vampire Diaries
Premise: Two zombie brothers -- one who eats human brains, the other who survives by eating squirrels -- return to their hometown decades after they were thought to be killed, only to meet a girl who looks exactly like the zombie who bit them. The squirrel-eater re-enrolls in high school and... actually, it's pretty much the same show.

I would absolutely watch Chunks. That sounds awesome.
I agree, Chunks is definitely the most appealing. The problem overall with zombies competing with vampires for appeal is that, well, they smell, and their flesh is rotting. Unlike the unnaturally youthful looking vampires. Don't think we're going to see zombies as lust objects anytime soon. I am excited to see The Walking Dead though.
Dead Men, GREAT unless cambell starts snooping around again. Then Draper becomes outcast and we all stop watching.
