\u201cI wish all programming decisions were no brainers like this one,\u201d said Sharon Tal Yguado, SVP Scripted Programming. \u201c\u2018The Walking Dead\u2019 is a TV masterpiece on so many levels. We want at least 10 seasons, if not more. Kudos to AMC!\u201d<\/p>\n

AMC\u2019s \u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d is based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics.\u00a0 Kirkman serves as an executive producer on the project and three-time Academy Award-nominee Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) serves as writer, director and executive producer. Gale Anne Hurd (The Terminator, Aliens, Armageddon, The Incredible Hulk), chairman of Valhalla Motion Pictures, serves as Executive Producer. David Alpert from Circle of Confusion and Charles \u201cChic\u201d Eglee (Dexter, The Shield, Dark Angel) serve as Executive Producers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home.\u00a0 The comic goes on to explore the challenges of life in a world overrun by zombies who take a toll on the survivors, and sometimes the interpersonal conflicts present a greater danger to their continuing survival than the zombies that roam the country.\u00a0 Over time, the characters are changed by the constant exposure to death and some grow willing to do anything to survive.<\/p>\n

Shot on location in Atlanta, \u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d is led by a cast that includes Lincoln (\u201cTeachers,\u201d Love Actually) as Rick Grimes, Jon Bernthal (\u201cThe Pacific,\u201d The Ghost Writer) as Shane Walsh, Sarah Wayne Callies (\u201cPrison Break\u201d) as Lori Grimes, Laurie Holden (\u201cThe Shield,\u201d Stephen King\u2019s The Mist) as Andrea, Jeffrey DeMunn (Stephen King\u2019s The Mist, The Green Mile) as Dale, Steven Yeun (\u201cThe Big Bang Theory\u201d) as Glen, Emma Bell (The Bedford Diaries) as Amy and Chandler Riggs (Get Low) as Carl Grimes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
