Deadline Exclusive: This is a quite a bombshell -- I have learned that Frank Darabont, the creator, executive producer and director of AMC's smash hit The Walking Dead, is stepping down as showrunner of the series, which is now in production on its upcoming second season. The news is even more surprising given the fact that Darabont was on hand for Walking Dead's Comic-Con panel just this past Friday alongside fellow executive producers Robert Kirkman, on whose graphic novel the series is based, and Gale Anne Hurd and appeared excited about Season 2.
Dinner with the Parents Review: It's a family comedy series following the Langers, who often turn their family dinners into a disruptively chaotic affair.
Bros Review: The series, as the title suggests, is about two adult men who want to behave like children and we are not here for that.
Going Home With Tyler Cameron Review: This is a simple, no-nonsense but cliched watch, with Cameron's boyish charms taking centre stage.
This is potentially a really bad thing to happen to the series. He was so passionate about the whole thing and it was easy to see on screen. The only thing I can hope for is that Gale Ann Hurd stays on board and perhaps Darabont jumps into another Stephen King Project like the Dark ATower series or maybe even Under the Dome.
Wow, that kinda sucks. And it's especially crazy since he was just at Comic-Con promoting the show last week. Wonder what that's all about.
