THE WALKING DEAD Series Has A New Showrunner and TV Spot

TV AMCThe Walking Dead by Joey Paur

First of all, getting promoted to the position of showrunner on AMC's The Walking Dead series might not be the best career move for anyone. Both Frank Darabont and Glen Mazzara were fired after they were done with the seasons they worked on. Chances are the trend of firing showrunners will continue. 

The third showrunner who will be fired from the show will be executive producer Scott Gimple. The man who landed the lucky job is credited with writing five episodes of the series along with the feature film Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. Really?? We went from the guy who made classic films like The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile to the guy wrote wrote Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance? That doesn't seem like a move in the right direction. 

Oh well, I guess we'll see what he's really made of. It will be a miracle if he lasts more than one season. The Walking Dead returns to AMC from hiatus on February 10th! Here's the new TV Spot!
