“So I can say that it will be another group of characters, surviving in another part of the world. And it’s not going to use any of the core cast from our show. The show will continue uninterrupted, as if the other show doesn’t exist. But the other show will kind of be its own entity.” - R. Kirkman

Lol.

I know, but i think they need to be careful that they don't burn out the concept. Having a "companion" show runs the risk of creating "zombie fatigue." The show is bleak as it is...a double dose seems too much...they would need a fresh angle/approach to make it viable IMHO

 
I think it could fun to have a companion show...especially if they did something interesting like take the cast of Parks & Rec and threw them into this world.

But alas, they won't.

3 zombies walk into a bar. When they were alive they were a priest, a rabbi, and an atheist. The priest zombie looks at the bartender and says, "Arrrrghhwhlgh"

I think if they did The Walking Dead like True Detective and had a different cast of survivors each season, it would be really cool.

Agreed, I am looking forward to it. I like the article above's note about the Lost Tailies. I always liked that part of the show, just a completely different perspective and people that were in danger all the time versus the other Losties who had it much better. It did suck when every single one of them got killed except the dentist.

Tailies had to die though....they were the cautionary tale that was supposed to mirror the Nosies.

They haven't already?

The show has devolved into seeing how many new, cool ways they can kill zombies.

And still, people watch and will continue to watch.

May as well milk the hell out of it until people snap out of it.

You know what had potential? The Zombieland TV show.

IMO if you're going to make a zombie show it should either done with a sense of humor or done seriously. Not this Downton Abbey with zombies.

“After 10 years of writing the comic book series and being so close to the debut of our fourth, and in my opinion, best season of the TV series, I couldn’t be more thrilled about getting the chance to create a new corner of ‘The Walking Dead’ universe,” said Kirkman. “The opportunity to make a show that isn’t tethered by the events of the comic book, and is truly a blank page, has set my creativity racing.”

You lying *******, Kirkman.

My wife and I are big fans of the show..but we are both looking at each other with each passing episode since season 4's return and keep sayingwill it get better?

Clearly the weakest season of the entire series thus far due to this second half. And it's not close. I hope it does pick up more as this is the last season with this cast. I was really enjoying season 4..but after the fall of prison it has come to a screeching halt.

The show has been a great ride. Hopefully it really picks up this Sunday. It has been real bore so far. Character development? Yeah I love thatwhen it's interesting. This is just not very interesting at all thus far.

Huh?

I agree, why would he say it's the last season with this cast? One thing I would love to see is a fast forward to the future and a grown up Carl that is a badass. That would add a great twist to the series, plus get rid of that awful acting from the current Carl.

I think he's just confused. There is a spinoff coming in the same universe, but this show will continue.
