For fans of both Homeland and The Walking Dead this is some pretty funny shit. This mash-up sketch from Barely Political takes key characters from both of the popular shows and mingles their concepts to hilarious results. As an added bonus, the sketch takes a detour into a parody of The Talking Dead with the actual host, Chris Hardwick, who is a good sport at some self deprecation here.
The sketch brilliantly captures the common issues of both shows, from The Walking Dead’s Rick with erratic behavior, Hershel’s raspy-voiced advice, Michonne’s lack of dialogue, Carl as a bad ass, and then Homeland’s Carrie as the neurotic psycho, Brody’s back and forth personas, and Saul’s laid-back voice. The characters are captured to near perfection and the concept is a blast from start to finish. Guaranteed to get at least a few chuckles.

Homeland is currently headed into its 4th season on Showtime, while AMC’s The Walking Dead is nearing the close of season 3.
