AMC has greenlit the pilot for WALKING DEAD's companion/spinoff series, set in the same universe.

Very exciting, although I do love the impossibly frustrating fact that we have no idea what is going on in the rest of the world. If this series is a go, then we might lose some of that great aspect from the parent show.

Still, more zombies. Yeah!

Could be interesting, depend on who is involved. I think they should have done this a few years earlier.

I read some comments and as always they make me angry.

I lost interest in the original series so quickly, and I really don't think I'll be interested in this at all. I'm just over the whole damn thing.

Did you guys see the clown on the FB page? It looks like Pennywise from IT. Hella scary

Umm..... It will be called FEAR THE WALKING DEAD.

That's the best title I've heard since GH2.

I like it. It's foreboding, as apparently is the premise of the series itself. I think it's a great cast (especially Cliff Curtis, Kim Dickens from Deadwood and Frank Dillane) and a great idea in a vacuum, but I question what the longevity will be before they end up catching up to TWD. If they're wise, they'll go in a whole different direction eventually - maybe explore the scientific/disease angle only hinted at in the core show.

A promo will run during the TWD finale.

They had me at Kim Dickens, but Voldemort is in it as well? Now there's really no chance I won't be checking it out.

First teaser Very effective but don't watch if you don't want to know how the series starts:

Production begins on FEAR THE WALKING DEAD

He was wonderful in Passing Strange on Broadway.
