Darabont sues AMC over The Walking Dead profits
They say failure is an orphan and success is the mother of a million lawsuits—or something like that. AMC's The Walking Dead show is such a huge success that's it's already spawned a now-dismissed suit by original artist Tony Moore; and now original series creator Frank Darabont is suing AMC for unspecified but probably enormous damages, claiming he is being short changed via a form of "Hollywood Accounting."
24 Hours of Halloween: Norman Reedus’s Walking Dead photo book
It's Norman Reedus's world, we just live in it. Seriously, the guy is the biggest draw on the con circuit right now, and he's still honing his crossbow skills on The Walking Dead for the next few weeks.

It’s “Clear” why people love The Walking Dead so much
Just why is The Walking Dead the most popular cable show of all time? It's gory, unrelentingly grim and even the most likable characters act out of brutal self-preservation. There are no feel good moments, only increasingly distant memories of what it was like to feel good. (When a Tom Waits song, which closed last week's episode, qualifies as a gentle lullaby, you know things have gotten tough.) I guess all of this explains why it's a guilty pleasure: soap opera with the threat of a horrific death at any given moment.
