Any of you watch these? I binged last season of TWD on Netflix before this new season started. Then binged FTWD seasons 2 & 3 and am currently on 4.

Been reading about Frank Darabont’s involvement with the show. He originally pitched it to HBO who declined the offer. After the successful and critically acclaimed first season AMC want to slash the budget by 25% per episode and have 16 episodes instead of 8-12 like other similar shows. This resulted in paper thin episodes of filler and Darabont sending hilariously scathing emails to several AMC execs about the incompetence he felt the show was being handled with.

The show could have been much better on HBO.
