"a show that isn’t tethered by the events of the comic book"....sounds like they want to go completely in a different direction...maybe another part of the world...

I hate the idea of a spin-off. Hate it.

It all depends, I don't mind it if it is with characters we haven't met in another part of the country.

I mean, they're already telling a story here...why tell another one? I don't get it. Unless it's going to show me the initial break out of the virus then I don't care. But I'd rather have flashbacks with the characters we have now...I don't like the idea in any way shape or form.

Well, I guess it depends on whatever "Different perspective" they are planning on doing. When I told my son in law, he said "the walkers?" lol.
Maybe it will be from the perspective of someone working from patient zero (Meeps, kind of like we discussed on TWD board on FB) or a third hand account.
If it is just another group of survivors, I will watch it, just to see.

i think it could be pretty cool. After all - he is an incredible storyslinger. I hated... HATED zombies before all this. If he can write a seperate story about the apocolypse... i think he'd succeed.
Actually i've often wondered what else is going on in the world during this apocolypse. we only see a very small window into it.

it's gonna be a show about a group of tv people who fake the apocalypse, fool people into thinking they are the last ones alive, film them and make a ton of money off the merchandising and TV shows

Agree..the fact that they have come across scattered people in their journey implies they're scattered all over the place, most likely going thru similar circumstances. I could get into more stories about them....

AMC’s award-winning The Walking Dead webisode series returns to amc.com and AMC’s YouTube Channel on Sun., Oct. 1 with three new installments. The newest series –- The Oath –- was executive produced, directed and conceived by Greg Nicotero, executive producer, director and special effects makeup designer on the hit show.
In the three webisodes (7 to 10 minutes each), the lone survivors of a massive walker-attack, Paul (Wyatt Russell, Cowboys and Aliens) and Karina (Ashley Bell, The Last Exorcism), speed across the countryside, frantically searching for an aid-station, as one of them slowly bleeds out from a wound. Finally coming upon a hospital that has not been overrun at first feels like a blessing, but could soon turn to misfortune, as a seemingly benevolent doctor (Ellen Greene, Little Shop of Horrors) may hide a darker agenda.
Right on the heels of directing Season 4′s premiere episode, Greg Nicotero focused his sights on the most ambitious The Walking Dead webisode series yet. “There’s walkers, gore and new threats lurking around every turn — all the elements that fans The Walking Dead will love!”
Nicotero further commented, “The webisodes give us a unique opportunity to see other parts of the ravaged world of The Walking Dead while weaving in and out of our show. The crossover between The Oath and The Walking Dead ties in one of the most iconic images from the series, and gives us insights and history to yet another timeline. I had worked with Ashley on The Last Exorcism and brought in Wyatt and Ellen, who rounded out the brilliant cast perfectly.”
“The Walking Dead audience is passionate and enthusiastically interacts with the show and other fans online. Being able to develop new ways for them to experience the world of The Walking Dead, like these webisodes, is a no-brainer,” said Mac McKean, senior vice president, digital media, AMC. “They tell a great story with high production values, and they perfectly complement AMC’s extremely popular The Walking Dead digital experiences — games, second screen experiences and interactive content.”
The previous two seasons of amc.com’s The Walking Dead webisodes have won back-to-back WGA, Streamy and Webby awards. The webisodes are produced by Alloy Digital/Generate with Chris Pollack, Jared Hoffman, Greg Nicotero and Michael Petok serving as executive producers.
Hyundai continues its partnership with AMC and The Walking Dead. From the iconic Kiwi Green Tucson to Hyundai’s growing fleet of Zombie Survival Machines, including a fan-designed version to be revealed at New York Comic Con, the brand continues to play an important supporting role in The Walking Dead fandom.
“It’s great to extend our partnership with AMC again for The Walking Dead webisode series,” said David Matathia, director, marketing communications, Hyundai Motor America. “We know fans can’t get enough of The Walking Dead world and we’re excited to provide unique content before the start of the season.”
The Walking Dead returns Sun., Oct. 13 at 9/8c on AMC.

I have never seen a webisode. I watch way to much tv as it is.
