AMC Boss Hints Walking Dead Could Stick Around for '30, 40, 50 Years'

TV Line ^ | November 2, 2017 | Michael Ausiello

[Robert DeLong]

Democrats have been known to be zombies for decades now

[Vinnie]

I ducked out last season.
I do keep a Browning Buckmark , 4 magazines and 2000 rounds of .22 LR handy though. :>)

[liberalism is suicide]

AMC is the walking dead...has been since it changed its original format.

[rightwingcrazy]

I think I quit after the third or fourth season. Used to like it, but enough is enough. The show itself seems to be undead.

My daughter loves this show. =)

[EdnaMode]

I stopped watching after season 5. It just feels like it’s never going anywhere.

[EdnaMode]

Yup. Walking Dead. Fear The Walking Dead. Talking Dead. It’s too much. I miss Breaking Bad.

[packrat35]

The tripe has been going on longer than that. I quit a couple of years ago.

[packrat35]

I miss the old AMC with old time movies uncut.

I still remember when I realized they were dead to me. They were playing the original Friday the 13th as a classic movie.

[mad_as_he$$]

Not if they stay on the trajectory Season 8 is on.

[mad_as_he$$]

Yup, Rick had a clear easy shot at him and missed. He them also screwed up the follow on. One good thing I learned was that corrugated tin roof is bullet proof.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

You would think that with all the zombies at least one of them would be . . . you know . . . nekkid! They are all fully dressed and some look like they just came out of the beauty parlor (or was that the embalmer).

[The Duke]

Maybe the show itself will become a zombie???

[IronJack]

I don't know ... If it were me, I would conclude the series with one final, apocalyptic battle, like the one going on now between the Ricksters and the Neganites, then call it quits. There are really only so many stories they can tell, and the man vs. zombie followed by man vs. man is pretty much played out.

But I guess there are still a few bucks to be wrung out of the old Dead.

But mark my words, if they're planning for an endless run, the next big conflict is going to be between the "Kill 'em all" hardcores and the peacenik "Love your neighbor" guys like Hay-soos (I refuse to blaspheme and call him by the name the series has given him.)

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

That’s the thing I’ve always had trouble understanding with these zombie shows. The zombies should deteriorate at least eventually. Sure, you will have a peak zombie point in time where there are literally millions upon millions of them, but those numbers should drop by huge amounts the more time has passed, especially over a hot summer.

[\/\/ayne]

The lack of military gun fighting skills in the major battles is appalling. Spray, don't even pray, and spray some more.

Too bad there's not a veteran who at least went through basic training to teach one side how to fire accurately in small bursts or single shots. That team would clean up!

[logi_cal869]

Agreed. It eventually just got intolerable. Streaming permits skipping. I concede that I watched longer than I should have. Ask the wife: The tv’s a sniveling shell of itself due to being screamed into submission...

[bjcoop]

At least AMC has Better Call Saul
