Laurie Holden’s Andrea on ‘The Walking Dead’ was more important than you remember.
The Walking Dead might have been a series about zombies, but it was the living human characters that kept us coming back week after week. We were invested in their lives and their survival. (And we still are, as evident by the success of spin-offs such as The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.) Just how would Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and company get out of the latest walker attack or escape the newest evil human villain? As favorite characters died and newer, more bland ones came in, audiences tuned out. These characters couldn’t compare to the ones we’d spent the first several seasons caring so much for.
We didn’t love every single character in those early years though. Rick, Michonne (Danai Gurira), Glenn (Steven Yeun), and Daryl (Norman Reedus) might have been wildly popular, but a certain member of their group was hated by fans. Frankly, we couldn’t stand Andrea (Laurie Holden). Sadly, it shouldn’t have been that way. She was meant to be a completely different character before being wildly changed into someone that couldn’t be fixed.
‘The Walking Dead’s Andrea Started Strong
Andrea was a liked character when she first showed up on The Walking Dead. While she wasn’t in the first episode, she showed up in the second, “Guts,” and became a core member of the group. Andrea might have been portrayed as an attractive blonde, but she was no stereotype. She was highly intelligent, working as a civil rights lawyer before the outbreak. She wasn’t just smart, but she was also tough. She’d be right there on the front lines, gun in hand, never failing to get messy and take risks fighting the walkers.
