The Walking Dead News Bits

2010/12/05 03:22:48 +00:00 | Jonathan James

We have a number of news items that popped up over the last few days related to The Walking Dead:

-Earlier this week, rumors were swirling around blogs and news sites that the writing staff of The Walking Dead had been let go. We didn't run the story, because it seemed a bit drastic given the ratings success of the show. Why ruin a good thing? It turns out that this rumor was only partially correct.  Executive producer Gale Ann Hurd has commented that the story was inaccurate and that only Charles Eglee is in the process of moving onto another project.

-While we are still waiting for official word on the DVD release for season 1, Amazon.com has listed a release for March 8th.

-This Sunday will be the last episode of the season. If you haven't seen any of The Walking Dead or need to catch up, AMC will be running a marathon, showing all 6 episodes in a row. Check your local listings for showtimes.
