Jul 27, 2022 · The Walking Dead introduced Glenn Rhee in the very first episode. Here's why Glenn went on to become such a beloved character.
Above everything, Glenn is GOOD in a world of evil. The apocalypse changed many and most characters into survivors while at the same time, these same characters sacrifice some part of their humanity in order to continue surviving.
Glenn was a cunning character. He used his intelligence in tough situations. In particular, I remember that time he was defenceless, tied/handcuffed to a wooden chair and a walker was let loose in the room.
Glenn's a character you definitely want in your squad: Man's a walking-talking satnav, "fast on his feet and knows how to get in and out," smart and strategic, tough and scrappy 😅 he's got a decent upper cut, can definitely hold his own, perfect team member for scavenging trips.

Season 2, Episode 9 "Triggerfinger"
It takes a good leader to admit their faults and when they are wrong. Glenn never shied away from doing that.

Season 5, Episode 15 "Try"
When Nicholas let others on the team die, Glenn was going to keep quiet about it to give Nicholas a second chance. A good leader knows when to cut ties with someone, but also when someone deserves a second chance. Traits like this are why Glenn accounts for one-half of some of the relationships that deserved more screen time on The Walking Dead, according to Reddit. In Glenn's eyes, he believed that while Nicholas was a coward, he deserved the opportunity to redeem himself. He hoped the guilt...
Season 1, Episode 2 "Guts"
While this was one of Glenn's more light-hearted, humorous quotes, it reflects his personality perfectly. Rather than decide that they were out of options, Glenn always came up with a creative way to do what needed to be done. Even when he was just a young pizza delivery boy who unwittingly found himself in the midst of the apocalypse, he was able to keep everyone's spirits up and hope alive.

Season 6, Episode 7 "Heads up"
Perhaps one of the most inspiring comments from a show that sees characters living through watching their loved ones get brutally killed, Glenn brought things into perspective. Rather than grieve and shut down, the best way to honor those who gave their lives to try and protect everyone is to move forward. These are exactly the kinds of words that a group of people who are feeling defeated need to hear to give them purpose and motivation to fight back. The fact that he spoke these words to Ma...
Season 4, Episode 10 "Inmates"
Speaking of Hershel, Glenn recalled a conversation he had with the wise man and spoke the words he told him. The fact that Glenn referred to Hershel as his father-in-law and a great man alone was sweet. But the words he chose to repeat inspired hope.

Season 3, Episode 9 "The Suicide King"
While Glenn is one of many who lost his entire family in the apocalypse, he was also smart enough to recognize that the people he spent every day with now, those who fought to protect him and who he fought to protect, were his family now. Sometimes, family isn't only the people with whom blood is shared. Leaders who view their groups as more than just numbers but people, and more importantly, family, are the most successful at what they do. This is just one of the reasons Glenn is one of the...
Season 5, Episode 10 "Them"
Another quote showing how Glenn inspired hope in others, he also treated everyone as though they were a valuable member of the team. No one was above anyone else or more important than anyone else. Glenn would have willingly sacrificed himself for anyone in his group, no matter who it was. He sincerely had faith in everyone and realized that they only made each other better. He also realized that there was strength in numbers, and together, a group is stronger than any one person alone.
Season 6, Episode 3 "Thank You"
Someone in charge should always recognize that a team is only as strong as its weakest link. Every person on a team has a specific job to do and every job is just as important as the next. No matter how small or seemingly insignificant, every job is critical to achieving success, and should be done to the best of their ability. Glenn wasn't always the one leading the pack, but he recognized what his job was in every situation, and he did it. While Maggie wasn't thrilled that he always seemed...
Season 7, Episode 1 "The Day Will Come When You Won't Be"
In this final quote from Glenn right before his death, one of the most unexpected character deaths onThe Walking Dead, he showed that his hope never wavered, no matter how dire the situation got. Even in his final breath, he not only wanted to show that he had hope, but that he wanted Maggie to continue to have hope too. Interestingly, one logical theory according to CBRquoting actor Steven Yuen himself, is that, since this line came after Glenn had already been hit once, his brain was alread...
