The Walking Dead Season 8 - Actor's Father Rips Series after Mid-Season Finale!

via IFTTT The Walking Dead Season 8 - Actor's Father Rips Series after Mid-season Finale! http://ift.tt/2BgQuTX The father of a key "Walking Dead" character vented his frustrations with the show and showrunner Scott Gimple on social media following his son's onscreen death in this Sunday's midseason finale. "Watching Gimple fire my son 2 weeks before his 18th birthday after telling him they wanted him for the next 3 years was disappointing," William Riggs, father of Carl Grimes actor Chandler Riggs, wrote on Facebook. "I never trusted Gimple or AMC but Chandler did. I know how much it hurt him. But we do absolutely know how lucky we have been to be a part of it all and appreciate all the love from fans all these years!" In the closing moments of the midseason finale, Carl revealed to his father Rick (Andrew Lincoln) that he had been bitten by a walker. He did not die at the end of the episode though, meaning he will get one more episode to say goodbye once the show returns in February. "That is a bite on his side.… It will play out as bites play out on the show," Gimple said Sunday on "Talking Dead." "It's very important to Carl's story and the entire story, what happens in the next episode. I'm just focused on the fact that Carl right now is alive and he has some business to attend to. That is a one-way ticket. But I'd like to think that the things we see in the next episode are so important to his life and the other characters' lives." My opinion , Carl's age, and his acting ability is the reason they decided to kill him off, and use the little boy from the Kingdom for part of Carl's comic story arc. That crap about him being Ricks moral compass, as to why he won't kill Negan is BS, they could've used Morgan for that, in fact many fans thought that was going to be the plan....I was never a Carl fan, but I didn't want him dead. It's going to be interesting to see how they move forward . - onlyalisa W I never liked tv Carl, so i'm happy he's finally gone. It's the best Christmas present ever... Thank you soooo much Scott M Gimple. You are my hero. - TAR -21 THEM KILLING OFF CARL THIS EARLY PROVES THE SHOW IS GONNA END SOON - xd I think the Producers made a great choice by killing off the Carl character, because it makes the Tv series way less predictable for us Hard-core comic readers!!!! - Jpwalkerslayer97 #2 I was about to say in the last minutes scene of sewer, “So, no dies in this mid season finale” and they reveal Carl’s bit wound - Max555 Support TrevsChan2 through Patreon ► http://ift.tt/1a27yf9 TrevsChan2 Facebook Page ► http://ift.tt/1jivmhV TrevsChan2 Twitter ► https://twitter.com/trevschan2 TrevsChan2 Tumblr ► http://ift.tt/1jivldy Trevschan2 Google+ ► http://ift.tt/1pAgZTK Trevschan2 Blogger ► http://ift.tt/1jivmyb Who Would Win Vs Series ► http://ift.tt/1sTDzh2 Trevschan2
