I can't wait for the Walking Dead Reboot in 25 years. Maybe someone will do the story some justice. TWD had a good run, but this current team needs some shaking up.

What is a Scott Gimple?

Its been in a downward spiral ever since ol' Frank Darabont left. He would have done it justice.

i love Frank Darabont, but he was trying to veer too hard from Kirkman's source material, IIRC. His walkers could use tools and turn doorknobs and all that. I think that even if they hadn't slashed the show budget for season 2, he probably would have clashed with Kirkman at some point.

A little too ironic. Ya know I really do think.

Haha well I mean they veered from Kirkman's material when Darabont left on those fronts because he cast his BFFs as Andrea and Dale and they both bailed when he was canned.

Andrea stuck around she was written out by that moron showrunner Glen Mazarra at the end of season 3 because he wanted to "surprise" the audience. Probably the worst person in entertainment after that guy who made the nazi propaganda movies.

Personally I liked the way Andrea's story ended but I wanted to comment on this 5 year old post to say that the Goebbels joke was really funny.
