Andrew Lincoln On How Long The Walking Dead Can Continue

The Walking Dead is one of the most popular shows on television. AMC has helped make it one of the most talked about shows on social media and a massive hit around the world. It has made superstars out of some of the actors on the show. Even some of the established actors saw themselves gain a ton of popularity due to The Walking Dead.

That’s something that was true for Andrew Lincoln as well. Lincoln had some big roles in movies like Love Actually and Heartbreakers, but wasn’t a household name until his time with The Walking Dead. Now that his name has become so strongly associated with the show, he’s become one of the most popular interviews amont the show’s cast members.

In a recent article on Inquirer.net, Andrew Lincoln was asked about how long he thought that The Walking Dead could continue. They also added that they weren’t sure how many more characters could die. Here is what Lincoln said about it:

"“These are questions I am sure are being asked in the writers’ room. I think that, as long as there is an emotional impact with each death, then we have a show. It’s that simple. That is why we are still here—this is why we are still talking six years down the line. If we don’t have an emotional impact and if the audience and the fan base are not engaged emotionally with these characters, then we don’t have a show.”"

Fans should be interested to see that they are talking about the show six years down the road. But Andrew Lincoln is exactly right. As long as fans keep watching and are emotionally drawn in to the characters and the stories that they tell, The Walking Dead will continue to be one of the most popular shows on television.

And with how rabid the fans currently are for anything to do with the hit AMC show, it doesn’t look like The Walking Dead will be ending any time soon.
