AMC is launching Talking Dead, the network’s first live after-show that will discuss AMC’s series The Walking Dead. The half-hour program, produced by Michael Davies’ Embassy Row and hosted by Chris Hardwick, will premiere Oct. 16, immediately following the encore presentation of The Walking Dead. Then beginning on Friday, Nov. 4, the series premieres after The Walking Dead’s encore presentation at 11 PM. The project was originally piloted last month. “Fans of The Walking Dead are incredibly engaged with every aspect of the show. They tweet, blog, and post comments in very large 
numbers, and we wanted to give them an opportunity to interact with the show in a way that they don’t currently have — a kind of live water cooler,” said Joel Stillerman, AMC’s SVP original programming, production and digital content.
Talking Dead will feature Hardwick talking to fans, actors, producers and TV enthusiasts, recapping the most recent Dead episode and taking questions and comments from viewers. “As an enormous fan of both The Walking Dead comic and television show, I pretty much begged for this job,” Hardwick said. “Dissecting the moves of Rick Grimes and the remaining survivors after every episode is something I would be doing with my friends anyway, so the fact that AMC is actually paying me to do so is a bonus.”

Huh? Is it April 1st tomorrow? I know it’s a great show but, really?
i love the walking dead but i dont get the part where when they saved the boy and killed him, why save him when u are going to kill him?
If they had a show like this after each episode of Lost & Buffy i would of been in heaven.
The after show talkingdead is redundent and serves no point DUMB just show The WalkingDead no after show is needed since I just watched the show
i think the talking dead is great because it tells every thing you need to know about the recent episode and i want to give a shout out to the cast and chris hardwick and greg nicataro you guys rock
It works for Dr Who Confidential, albeit in more of a magazine format. Will be fascinating to see how the “watercooler” element functions if this series has as many duff episodes as the first one did.
They don’t have Dr Who On WPT SATURDAY NIGHT’S Any more they have a stupid show called Hustle now
Not a bad idea. Hardwick’s a good choice for a host too, I believe him when he says he’s a fan. Although the concept seems very MTVish
He has done several podcasts that mention his love of the show and one Nerdist episode also includes The Walking Dead panel at Comic Con from this year.
Sounds like a quick cheap way to add content to a season rumored to have suffered from budget cuts.
that is exactly what it is, cheap to produce, and they have a size-able, built-in audience. will bring in a lot of money to help AMC with its budget issues.
Dissecting paper thin stories and characters… I thought AMC was the classy network.
With Frank Darabont missing, the IQ level of subsequent conversations about the show will be as interesting as cocktail chatter at a Hollywood party full of suits…
It’s a very cheap way to milk a cow that has yet to be sucked dry. More add dollars for the same show, even though the show ended half an hour earlier.
Agreed.
But there already IS a Talking Dead and it’s been around for almost two years!

Just sayin’
Is Andy Cohen the host????? What the hell….
-RnsW
No kidding. God help us from more of that guy.
Hardwick is a good choice. Love his podcast (though hate his sidekicks) and AMC definitely knows the Nerdist listeners also watch the show.
OK this is why there’s a crisis on,and the country is going to hell people,people cant be bothered to even familiarize themselves with current events,their too hung up on vampires and zombies and Paris freaking Hilton reality shows…
Tell em, asshole.
I am so pissed!
Great show waited in anticipation for about what? 7 months… For 5 minutes of show and then 5 minutes of commercial… Seriously what the hell were they thinking.
STOP WITH THE F-ING COMMERCIALS!!!!! If its like this all season you lost a viewer!!!!
This series is awesome without a doubt cant wait to see what happens to the boy that got shot. I wonder why that stupid lil girl ran off, women are to much hassal during a zombie apocalipse! !
I loved the 1st season of this show. I am not a soap fan but did love this. It was action packed from the beginning to the end. This 1st of the second season has not been a disappointment. Looks like it is going to be as good as the last season. However, the after show with the so-called comedians, THAT SUCKED! Big time. Drop it!. It somehow seemed to make the show itself seem to be created by less than serious artists. Drop the deadbeats. They are not needed.
You would think with few people around a million cars, they wouldn’t be driving an RV from the sixties…….They drive some of the crapest cars for a world that is theirs for the taking.hahahahah
I thought the first Talking Dead program following the first episode of season 2 a bit lame. I would have rather them talk more about the episode than to listen to the comedian that was there. The guy was not funny at all and made the show a waste of time. ~G
Gave the talking dead a chance. Boring and annoying, the two others on there I did not care for and was not interested in what they had to say. Kirkmans appearance on there was really, nothing.
bd’s comment about milking it is right what this show is. Milking stupidty. No more Talking Dead for me.
DID THE WALKERS BREAK IN TO ,ALMOST A TROT CHASING THE TWO FROM THE TRAILER TO THE BUILDING ?
I THOUGHT THE WALKERS HAD ’1′ SPEED . ??

Do the zombies have the taste for animals
UM NOT SAYING YOUR DUM BUT YEAH ZOIMBIES DO HAVE TAST FOR ANIMMALS
Why is the party not taking advantage of two county sheriffs knowledge of firearms. Every Redneck, and police officer knows how to reload shells, and many know how to make bombs. Also most officers know how to make silencers, so they can kill walking dead from a distance.
I have noticed that Daryl sometimes holds a crossbow arrow between his teeth. These appear to be the same arrows he kills walkers with. Isn’t there a danger that some of their blood, lymph, or whatever will get into his bloodstream? If so, wouldn’t he also become infected and become a walker? But maybe he has a way of sterilizing the arrows that we don’t get to see.
can the walking dead walk in the frezeing cold temp.
