The Kingdom series, from Netflix, continues to outsell beloved The Walking Dead. The series explores the creation of a zombie virus in medieval South Korea. Something that still leaves something to be desired in TWD.
The plague starts with a plant: Resurrection Flower. The revelation is given in the second season of Kingdom. The worms that inhabit this plant are responsible for spreading the virus.

The special Kingdom: Ashin of the North comes to give more content to the story. In it, a deer eats one of the infected flowers and then ends up killed by a hungry cat.
Series creates scientific explanations
Soldiers are attacked by the infected feline and end up carrying the zombie virus. Thus, the plot gains scientific foundation in explaining how the organism was transferred to men through nature.
To date, The Walking Dead series has not dealt with the rise of the zombie plague. On the contrary, it leaves several loose ends that end up fostering different theories.
One of the craziest rumors involves the character Walter White (Breaking Bad's protagonist). White would be the spreader of the plague, as both series would be set in the same world. However, none of this has been confirmed to date.
The lack of depth ends up triggering criticism and some production problems. Therefore, Kingdom was more accurate on this point. Netflix was right to bring the plot to unfolds that are explained within itself.
In TWD, animals don't become zombies, for example. This would have no problem, if some explanation were given in return. Otherwise, the story relies on tragedies, violence, and political analogies. Which is also not a defect, as long as it's not just that for long years of display.
Robert Kirkman, creator of TWD even said that it would be difficult to show zombie animals on TV. This was one of the reasons why the virus had no effect on them.
The Walking Dead loses space for the new title
Honestly, fans don't care much about animal infection. However, as other series dedicate themselves more to explanations, TWD loses more and more space.
In Kingdom, the explanation is not enough just in the origin of the virus. It informs how the pest acts when in contact with the host.
Both Kingdom and TWD are available to watch on Netflix.
