With The Walking Dead: Season 3 underway, I recently sat down with executive producer Gale Anne Hurd and co-executive producer, director and special effects make-up designer Greg Nicotero about the changes this year, introducing new characters and more – including whether we might ever see zombies in the snow!
IGN TV: Your show is in its third year. What is it like to see the pop culture impact its had, from all the merchandising, to being part of something like Halloween Horror Nights at Universal?
Gale Anne Hurd: I think it’s as it should be.
Honestly, there is something about the show, a dialogue that people have -- not only in the United States, but throughout the world, because it airs in 133 countries. For some reason, it seems to have resonated just about everywhere. Part of it, I think, is timing, but I think the other part of it is that the show takes itself seriously, it takes the characters seriously, it takes the world seriously, and is inspired by some of the best underlying material in the genre universe, Robert Kirkman’s comic book.
