      AMC did. And now it’s time for another studio to beat the corpse again for several years.

    When there is a large purchase of a successful established IP there will be incessant studio meddling. Nothing good will come from whoever buys the rights.

      This show is beyond played out. It blows my mind that this show still gets viewers.

      There’s nothing good to buy anyway. The show went to shit after S01 and then continued for 10 more seasons and multiple spin-off shows and some movies that may or may not have wound up getting made.

        Nah, there were many more great seasons that followed, but yeah, quality has dropped in the final few, because of course it did, after ten seasons there is no steam left

          I cant say I agree. I watched up to season 7 or 8 just out of wanting to complete the story but it just kept running in an identical cycle of meeting some new group, getting into a conflict, and then defeating the group only to start over once again.

      I don’t think Kirkman would disagree. Maybe about the studio, but I think he wants an animated adaptation. I would welcome it. I’m tired of live-action. It’s never good enough. Because animation can do so much more than live-action.

    I hung in watching this show for way too long, and somehow it went on for multiple seasons after that. It’s pretty funny to me how much money these entertainment studios will spend to avoid having to create something new or innovative.
