Melissa McBride talks Carol meeting Morgan, and Carol’s capacity to survive in the Apocalypse:

It’s going to be really interesting to see, because they haven’t really interacted yet,. I don’t know what he’s going to do with these people. He’s like, ‘Life is precious.’ [But] hold up. Well, of course it is, but a life that’s getting ready to kill you? Your life is more precious than that one.

She’s adaptable — and one of her weapons is adaptability,” she explained, adding that Carol’s ability to put on an act also helps her survive the zombie apocalypse. “Each [personality] is necessary so far, but they’re both who she is. And each one is aware of the other. It’s beautiful and complicated, but so simple. This is a tool. This is one of her weapons. It’s the mask.

Danai Gurira teases the sixth season, through Michonne’s relationship with Rick Grimes:

Michonne and Rick have really great intimate bond as friends and it’s been growing really since season three. It just develops more and more and it’s been tested in so many different ways. Then the fact that she stood up and said, ‘We have got to go to Alexandria,’ and then when she felt that he was doing something that could endanger himself and the group and be something that he could possible regret, she took ahold of the situation.

She’s always had that power in her but she doesn’t exert it unnecessarily and that’s what I find kind of astounding about her as a character, which is her ability to really step in in the exact right moments and the exact right ways

ooooooooooo
 
Yes, Jesus!!! He's a bad ass!

I think have exhausted my supply of exclamation marks in this one post.

It shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that The Walking Dead TV show is adding another character from its comic book source material.

In season 6, we’ll be getting Paul ‘Jesus’ Monroe, who lives in the Alexandria Safe Zone with leadership, logic and a strong moral code on his side.

Tom Payne – best known across the pond for his role in TV drama Luck – will play Jesus, and is expected to become a key member of the core group as the story develops.

The Hollywood Reporter broke the story, and they’ve been quick to wonder with this news could lead to Negan – a major villain, who Jesus helps fight – joining the show, too.

"There are astonishingly brilliant and thrilling characters that I am convinced we would be idiots not to meet in our journey; I would be very surprised if we don't see Negan on the horizon in the not-too-distant future," Andrew Lincoln told THR earlier this year.

For now, we’re just pleased by the introduction of Jesus to proceedings. We’ll let you know as we hear any more.

Danai Gurira teases the sixth season, and where Michonne finds herself going into it:

In the Coda episode she took [her katana] back down, and she took it back down because it had been used in a way that she couldn’t justify. If she’s not the one in this control of this very powerful weapon, it could land in the wrong hands. Also the world that she’s in is not one where she has the liberty she was hoping to have of exploring not being equipped with a lethal weapon at all times, exploring being in a society — it’s just not the world she’s in, and she really accepts that at the end of Season 5 and puts that thing back on her back. It really is a question now of how she navigates that dualism of the desire to function in a normal society — or in a society as normal as possible [laughs] — and to have a community that thrives, and the understanding that she is a warrior.

She has responsibilities therein because that’s a powerful role to have in this world, and it’s the one to which much is given and much is expected. We expect Michonne to stand up for those who need it and to be there and to be a part of the war that rages in this world of the apocalypse. She has to navigate that, and that’s kind of the moment she’s stepping into when we enter Season 6.

Robert Kirkman says the show’s sixth season will stick closely to certain plot beats from the comics:

Season 6 has a vast amount of big moments pulled from the comics. The two are very closely tied at this point.

We have groups of people that have transformed at different rates with different ways of surviving, all in the same place. The people of Alexandria aren’t quite as prepared for this world as Rick and his crew are. We also have Wolves, who are perhaps closer to Rick’s group than they are to the people of Alexandria, but have a much more savage way of life.

Big moments. I hope they're not the ones .... :censored:
 
I do wonder when series 5 (I think) will be on free-to-air TV in the UK.

Edited extra bit: series 6, actually. Checked on the website.

This new age of TV is all well and good, but it can be bloody confusing, and hard to avoid spoilers.
 
It's a long walk to London, you know.
 
Kirkman talks about bringing Jesus in the series:

Jesus is just such a fun character to write in the comics. At this point in the life of the series, my thought is the apocalypse has been going on for so long, the people you encounter in your day-to-day life have to be extremely skilled. And they’ve been surviving for a reason, whether they were at a place like Alexandria that’s very safe, or they’re a great leader of their group and somewhat sadistic but in control of their group like Negan, or someone who’s an absolute, complete badass like Jesus.

He’s smart, quick, very athletic. He’s kinda been surviving on his feet. He’s going to be bringing a lot to the show. There’s some cool stuff coming with him.

It's very rare that a series gets to season 6 and is still going strong. I have read a bit past the released tv episodes in the comic and it is still looking very promising for the 2nd half of season 6. Looking forward. :)

Cool. I have read up to issue #147. So I have a couple I need to read, including #150 special edition.
 
I have been going through the Compendiums, which are great thick versions of the comics. I still have some of compendium 2 left and as there is a compendium 3 already the tvseries has a potential long way to go if they can maintain ratings and keeping relevant actors..
