Here’s an interesting video interview with Norman Reedus, the actor who plays Daryl Dixon on The Walking Dead.
The thing is, I’m not a fan of comics, unless they’re offshoots of a television series I enjoy (this one doesn’t fit that category because the comic existed before the TV show…) so I have no idea who this “The Governor” is.
I don’t mind spoilers, but I’m not necessarily anxious to run out and read this comic because if I find out someone is going to die that I don’t want dead, it could affect my ability to enjoy the series and I definitely don’t want that. I’ve found that when an on-screen death happens and I don’t know about it in advance, I’m much more likely to keep watching than if I find out ahead of time. That might not make a lot of sense but it’s just the way it is.
One spoiler mentioned in the latter article is that Shane could be written out because Jon Bernthal is possibly interested in starring in a TNT drama pilot. If that happened, someone would have to appear who would continue to challenge Rick, other than the zombies. The good news is that unlike with character deaths that have no off-screen reason, when I know someone is moving on, I deal quite well with the news. (Not to say I have any idea how Shane would possibly be written out if that came to pass.)
