| Subject: Robert Kirkman Says His Biggest Walking Dead Regret Is the Season 1 Finale Tue Nov 25, 2014 10:25 pm | |

- Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has one regret about AMC's television adaptation of his comics series—the finale of the show's first season. Spoilers ahead... but you've seen the Season 1 finale, right?
"If I had to do it again, I wouldn't have done the CDC episode," Kirkman revealed to The Hollywood Reporter. The CDC episode sees Dr. Edwin Jenner (The Americans' Noah Emmerich) tells Rick that everyone is already infected. In the comics, Rick's group figures that fact out quite awhile later after a character is killed and she comes back, despite not having a zombie bite.
"It possibly gave away too much information and was such a big change very early on in the series," Kirkman said. "I feel like there might have been a better way to wrap up the first season. It ended up being a fun episode. I love the character of Dr. Jenner and thought Noah did an amazing job. But there were things in that episode that I think seem very much not of The Walking Dead world."
Kirkman also said that he would have left out other bits of information, such as Jenner revealing he isn't able to find a cure, but that French scientists might.
"I've been careful in the comic series to not say what's happening in other parts of the world. It's something that's going to be fun to explore in the spinoff series," he said. "But the fact that France is mentioned in that episode and other things like that, I probably would have steered away from that stuff if I had to do it all over again." Source | |
