The Walking Dead Season 2 News

Some very interesting news coming off the wire at this hour. It seems
as if show producer and part time director Frank Darabont has decided
to scrap all of the writers that participated in season one in favor of
an entire new crew. With the television shows ratings continuing to rise
each week one wonders why this drastic change was made...

Follow up:

According to Deadline,
it goes as far as Darabont letting his own number two man and writing
producer Charles Eglee go. Why the sudden and abrupt changes? Well,
it's simply not known at this point. Changes of this magnitude could say
a few things but certainly Darabont has pushed "all in" so to speak. This will either be a smart more at the end of the day or this could blow up, time will tell.


Instead of hiring an all new staff to come back for the second season
Darabont has decided to have all the scripts prepared by freelance
writers. This man has some stones by putting all this on the line in the
hands of outsiders. We have a feeling he knows what he's doing. The
scripts seem to be straying away from the comics in which its based.
Darabont either wants to get closer to the source material or have the
greatest "free thinkers" on the market do come up with a new direction.

The 13 episode season two of THE WALKING DEAD will premiere Halloween night, October 31st 2011.
