There is no way to take a popular comic book series like The Walking Dead and create a TV show that is entirely accurate in its adaptation of the story. For one thing, books and TV shows are very different, and something that plays out well on the page would never work on the small screen. As a result, changes always need to be made from the source material.

The question then changes to whether or not the viewers and fans of the source material will appreciate the changes. Sometimes, the changes work perfectly and improve on the source material — something that fans appreciate over time. However, other times fans hate the changes and turn their noses on the show. Here are five changes AMC's The Walking Dead made to the comics that we're okay with and five that we're still mad about.

10 CARL'S DEATH - MAD ABOUT

Carl's death is easily the most polarizing change from the comic books to the TV series. The fact Carl lived in the comics and was telling the story to his kids in the future made this harder to accept. It also doesn't help that actor Chandler Riggs didn't want to leave the show.

In The Walking Dead TV series on AMC, Carl did not live, and died after a Walker bit him while he was saving Siddiq. The fact that the TV show also killed Siddiq later meant that Carl's death meant absolutely nothing in the end.

9 JUDITH - OKAY WITH

If there is one silver lining about the death of Carl, it is the fact that The Walking Dead at least has someone who can carry on his story on the show to the end. One of the most shocking and brutal moments from the comics had Lori delivering her baby and then The Governor gunning both down.

There was no way AMC could have a baby gunned down on television. They could have had the baby lost during birth, along with Lori, but Judith lived. Now, she can carry on Carl's legacy, and that might make his death a little easier to take, by the end.

8 ANDREA - MAD ABOUT

Andrea was one of the toughest, take no nonsense, characters in The Walking Dead comics. She was someone who could hold her own and kill anyone needed, from Walkers to evil humans. However, on the AMC version of the series, Andrea changed completely.

Instead of the strong woman who would one day hook up with Rick Grimes and help lead the new society, Andrea was someone who just wanted to die and seemed depressed and angsty all the time. When Andrea died on the show, many fans rejoiced. This was not the Andrea that the comic book character deserved.

7 CAROL - OKAY WITH

While Andrea was a terrible character on The Walking Dead TV show and was nothing like her comic book counterpart, the opposite happened with Carol. Honestly, looking at the comics and the TV show reveals that the AMC series just switched Carol and Andrea's roles on the show.

Carol, in the comics, was the clingy and needy character that couldn't survive on her own. She wanted to marry Lori and Rick (as in polygamy), and when rejected, let a Walker bite her in a form of suicide. Carol on the TV show is a billion times better.

6 JESUS - MAD ABOUT

Jesus was one of the toughest butt-kickers in The Walking Dead comic books. Even Tom Payne, the actor hired to portray Jesus on the AMC series, seemed excited that he was going to get to take on the role of one of the coolest characters in the comics.

Then the AMC series did nothing with him. Seriously, they left Jesus on the sidelines when he could have been kicking butt for several seasons. When producers told Payne that Jesus would die at the hands of the Whisperers, the actor said he was relieved since the show didn't do anything with the character from the comics.

5 MICHONNE AND RICK - OKAY WITH

In The Walking Dead comic books, Rick and Andrea were the couple that hooked up, and everyone loved. Rick was the main protagonist and leader, and Andrea was strong enough to back him up every step of the way. However, Andrea in the TV show was terrible.

With that said, there was also no way that Rick and Carol (who replaced Andrea as the butt-kicker) could hook up. Michonne, on the other hand, hooked up with Ezekiel in the comics, Having Carol and Ezekiel hook up, and Rick and Michonne have a baby together worked very well.

4 TYREESE - MAD ABOUT

Tyreese in The Walking Dead

In the comics, Tyreese was a strong, dominating, powerful fighter and a perfect right-hand man for Rick Grimes. However, because Shane was such a brilliantly realized character on TV, he lived much longer than he did in the comics, and Tyreese was pushed off since Shane filled that role.

Finally, after Shane's death, it was time to bring in Tyreese, and the character was Tyreese in name only. While the comic book version as strong enough to kill an entire room of Walkers by himself, the TV version was a pacifist who did little but refuse to want to fight.

3 MORGAN MOVING ON - OKAY WITH

While Tyreese was a disappointment in the changes the TV show made with him, Morgan was a different story. The character of Morgan in the comic books had a very short life and did little that meant much in the grand scheme of things. On the TV show, he was important and even went on to star in Fear the Walking Dead as one of their key players.

Morgan even had his own crazy character arc on the show that never happened in the comics. He became a pacifist and then realized he needed to become a fighter again, and now he is a great leader himself.

2 HEADS ON PIKES - MAD ABOUT

The Walking Dead had the Whisperers attack in both the comic books and the TV show, and both instances resulted in the heads-on-the-pikes scene. However, the change here was that they had different people die.

While Henry's death devastated Carol, and Tara and Enid were longtime characters, none of the deaths mattered as much to viewers. In the comics, two of the deaths were a pregnant Rosita, which destroyed Siddiq and Eugene, and King Ezekiel, which was probably the biggest of them all. The TV show didn't have the same impact.

1 DARYL - OKAY WITH

If there is one change that The Walking Dead made that fans are not just okay with, but love wholeheartedly, it is Daryl Dixon. This character never existed in the comic books at all. His brother Merle was in both versions, but Daryl was an original character starting in the first season.

Daryl never showed up in The Walking Dead comics at all, and that might be the one thing fans of the books missed the most. Now, with Rick gone and Carl dead, it is Daryl that is the heart-and-soul of the TV show and the most beloved character.
