AMC has announced that Season 2 of The Walking Dead will include a mid-season hiatus and - upon its return - will be paired with a new reality TV show from Kevin Smith.

I absolutely hate the short seasons and mid-season break that goes on in TV shows now.
12 episodes is not a season. |

no, 12 eps is half a season. I totally agree with you here, tv is getting insanely lazy these days..and hiatus kills more shows because it forces viewers with already painfully short attention spans to wait a long period of time to pick back up a very integrated serial plotline.

12 episode seasons don't bother me, though. I'm used to it (being a Brit originally) so it's not that big a deal and I'd rather have fewer, but better episodes than a drawn-out load of crap (cf. Torchwood.)

Plus The Walking Dead is pretty damned expensive to make and I doubt they could really run to more than 12 episodes without it looking cheap.

As I say, 12 episodes isn't an issue for me, really. I'd rather have a shorter, more concentrated and higher quality short run than a longer, drawn-out budget-spinning 24 episodes.

And Kevin Smith is a screenplay writer foremost! the chances of his show being a "reality" show is probably disingenuous to say the least.

Is he even in it? Or is it just filmed in his store?

They should film it at the Quik Stop.
And as much as i love The Walking Dead,i hope it fails due to budget cuts, implodes and sucks half the network with it, forcing them to fire the asswipe who decided to cut the budgets of one their most anticipated shows, all so they can play grabass with madmen |
