AMC takes on Walking Dead


Looks like AMC is going to do it again. First Mad Men (halfway through season one and it's fuckin' super duper), then Breaking Bad, and now The Walking Dead! Apparently, the dude who directed The Shawshank Redemption, and the awful The Green Mile and The Majestic is developing the series for AMC. I'm worried that this Darabont fellow isn't the right dude for this job (his films lack the grit, and gore, and fucking insanity that Walking Dead will need) but if he surrounds himself with the right people and stays true to the comic then this has potential to be everything that the god-awful True Blood isn't. I hope they don't fuck this up because we always said that the comics would make a wicked television series. Now we'll know for sure...

anyway, AMC is the place to be just in case you don't know it yet...

Sucks that its gonna be on AMC, but has potential to be a wicked show. I liked The Green Mile. I ask anyone who still looks at our blog to read The Walking Dead before this show comes out to know just how awesome it is.
