This was bound to happen.

I never watched the show because I read the comics and got sick of it around issue 70/72.

The walking dead always was designed to never have an end, they just come up with stuff as they go along.

A GOOD STORY NEEDS A BEGINNING, A MIDDLE, AND AN END.

Aren't most comics designed that way, though?  Anyway, Kirkman says it has an ending (he could be full of shit, though). If TWD has an ending, I imagine those huge paychecks keep him from putting it on paper.

Direct quote frome the Robert Kirkman, 3 years ago

How long could you keep the comic book going?
"I'm doing the math on this. I'm 34 years old. By the time I'm 65, I might actually get pretty far. If I don't get bored and people are still enjoying the story, I can do 1,000 issues of The Walking Dead. So it is actually possible to tell a story that follows the collapse of civilization into the dark ages into the rebirth of civilization, where things are completely different. There could be an issue 700 of The Walking Dead that's about people delivering mail. That is exciting to me."
