Aw, that really sucks. It would have been awesome! I blame AMC for getting rid of Darabont.
ReplyDeleteDidn't even know he had a son!
ReplyDeleteHe and his wife have three kids! Two sons - Joe, Owen, and Naomi. His sons are also writers.
ReplyDeleteThis is very unfortunate. Gotta question some of the decision makers there at AMC. All things seem to indicate that Darabont deserved better.
ReplyDeleteIn the time since the rumor broke that he was going to write an episode and now he has probably written a zombie book and its sequel!
ReplyDeleteThe man is prolific.
sorry to hear, stephen king is a great writer
ReplyDeleteThats a shame - Cell is a great zombie (kinda) novel. He would have been a perfect fit...
ReplyDeleteCell is a great book from him! I keep forgetting about that one, though.
ReplyDelete^^; I can't say I'm sad......
