Hey DeNiro and all Walking Dead fans,
I came across this article. Apparently they plan to make a pilot for a "companion" series to the WD. Supposedly it will cover what is happening outside Atlanta, GA.
I'm not so sure they should do that.

They may just overplay an excellent series theme.
A while back I heard rumor that a couple characters (don't know which) from WD would be in a spinoff series. Don't know if that's what they have in mind. Something tells me it's a bad idea.
