The Walking Dead - Season 2 - Interview with Gale Anne Hurd

Thanks to www.mycoven.com for the heads up

AMC’s The Walking Dead resumes Season 2 this Sunday at 9/8c, with the big question being: What will be the fallout of the massacre of walkers – young Sophia and some of Hershel’s kin and friends included – that led into the winter break? TVLine invited executive producer Gale Anne Hurd to preview the “barnageddon” aftermath, address one knock against the sophomore run’s start and weigh in on a Governor casting rumor. (Reminder: AMC is marathoning Season 1 tonight at 8/7c, and Season 2′s first seven episodes on Sunday starting at 1:30 pm.)

TVLINE | For starters, I wanted to give you a chance to address one criticism of the first half of the season, which was that some felt it was a bit static, a little talky. What do you want to say to that crowd, and what do you want to promise for the next run?
Well, I think if you read Robert Kirkman’s comic book, one of the great things about it is how well-defined the characters are, and how many panels are devoted to interaction among the characters. So I think it’s in the tradition of our underlying source material that we have spent so much time getting to know the characters, which was something we were unable to do the first season with only six episodes.

TVLINE | So there in the writers’ room, is there any kind of unwritten quota for walker interactions?
No. There’s no quota.
