A "Walking Dead" Talk Show?

Vulture has some rather interesting news today that there a reports of a possible "Walking Dead" talk-show like special coming up.



According to Vulture:

"Our spies say Nerdist blogger and former MTV personality Chris Hardwick, most recently seen hosting BBC America's 'Doctor Who' specials, served as the host of the pilot and that the discussion focused on 'Walking Dead'.

This would indicate that AMC is considering a launch of the as-yet untitled project in conjunction with this October's return of 'Dead', though we haven't been able to confirm that (and it's likely that it would be designed to air after other AMC shows, not just 'Dead').

What's more, because this was just a pilot, it's possible there could be format tweaks or that Hardwick might not be a part of the project should it go to series. If AMC decides to move forward with the show in time for 'Dead', it would likely do so within the next few weeks."
