"Deadline reports that writer, executive producer and director Frank Darabont has let go of the entire writing staff on "The Walking Dead"...
Among the casualties of the writer's room's mass cleansing are writing executive producer Charles "Chic" Eglee and Glen Mazzara, who wrote last Sunday's episode, "Wildfire." There's currently no word on whether executive producer and comic book creator Robert Kirkman's writing status on the show has been affected by Darabont's decision.
The reasons for the writing staff changes are currently unknown, though they're certainly surprising given the massive critical and commercial success that "The Walking Dead" has enjoyed since premiering in October. With everything seemingly on the right path, it seems strange that Darabont and the AMC network would want to tinker with their winning formula in such a dramatic way."
Obviously, they were reading this thread and reacted accordingly. Thanks guiys.
