Hey all! Happy to be joined this week by one of my Yellowjackets cohosts, Penny. As the final eight episodes of our beloved series loom in the near future, we thought we’d chat a bit about our overall feelings about The Walking Dead. We talk about our favorite era of the show, favorite characters, where we thought the series most went wrong, predictions for the end of the series, and our thoughts on the spinoffs. 

And for the main event, it’s yet another Korean zombie thing, namely the excellent 2020 movie #Alive. It’s a simple movie, and it really gave me those old zombie goosebumps! Definitely recommend checking it out. You can catch it on Netflix.

If you haven’t yet checked out Netflix’ Korean historical zombie thriller, Kingdom, you are seriously missing out. It’s so beautifully designed and staged, with incredible rage-zombie action, and Game-of-Thrones-style political intrigue, backstabbing, and shocking twists. 

Lucy and I are pleased to have Kingdom fan (and Lucy’s partner) Peter on to talk through the second season. (We covered the first season awhile back, which you can find here: https://podcastica.com/podcast/the-walking-dead-cast/episode/395-kingdom-season-one).

You could say Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, directed by Sam Raimi of the Evil Dead movies and so much more, is Marvel’s version of a horror movie, with demons, dark magic, and at least one very prominent zombie, and so we thought why not talk about it on the Walking Dead ‘Cast! Yeah the movie had a problem or two, but there was so much we loved about it, and so much to talk about.

Thrilled to be joined by my recent Moon Knight ‘Cast cohost Kirk Manley for this one, who knows so much about the history of Marvel comics, and of course is a fantastic artist in his own right. Check out Kirk’s stuff at studiokm.com. You won’t regret it!

What a pleasure to talk to the talented Josh Hamilton, the man behind the enigmatic, calculating, and endlessly watchable Walking Dead antagonist, Lance Hornsby!

Lucy and I (with the help of you guys) asked him about all kinds of things, including: 

• Josh’s experience listening to our podcast

• How much he knew about Lance’s character arc from the beginning

• What kind of society he’d like to be a part of in the ZA

• Whether Lance believes in the ideals of the Commonwealth or it’s more about power for him

• Lance’s backstory

• Josh’s thoughts about various WD characters and actors

• What the mood was like working on his 1993 film, Alive

• What stands out to him about working on the 2018 Bo Burnham-directed movie Eighth Grade

• What he thinks about Lance’s fashion sense

• What it’s like to be on TWD as it’s ending

• And a lot more!

First thing’s first: Wanna come join us on the West Coast for a group watch of the WD finale? If you’re in, please RSVP at podcastica.com/twdfinaleparty so we can get a headcount. It’s gonna be so much fun!

King-size episode this week as we delve into THE LAST TWD MID-SEASON FINALE EVER!!! :`( Well, we thought it was a good one, and seemingly, hopefully kicked the story into high-gear for the final eight. Plus there was a ton of news and listener feedback (thank you!). And we finally got around to doing a big multi-issue Comic Talk segment comparing what happens with the Commonwealth in the comics vs. the show. Considering Rick was involved in the comics, things played out somewhat differently there and it’s kind of fascinating to think about the two alternate-reality versions of this story.

Some adorable “couple” moments in this ep, along with some plot progression, but we ARE kinda feeling like OKAY, we know the Commonwealth is rotten to the core! Can we please get to the rebellion or whatever it’s going to be?! But, we definitely found a lot to like and talk about with this ep. P.S. While Lucy’s out exploring Game-of-Thrones filming locations I’m happy to be joined this week by Rima and longtime listener and friend, Jayme!

So great to see Negan face-to-face with Hershel and finally showing a smidge of remorse! Also, the rotten core of the Commonwealth is being exposed to all our people, which surely means a rebellion is not too far off, right?

The Walking Dead has turned into a bit of a political thriller and also got us thinking about the merits and downsides of various forms of government, and we’re pretty fascinated by all of it and excited at the change of pace coming up towards the end here. Good stuff!
