The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon stars Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride took to the Hall H stage at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday to promote the upcoming season 3 of their zombie spinoff, but the biggest news to come out of the panel was the fact that the show will end after season 4.

Walking Dead czar Scott M. Gimple believes the franchise can endure for upwards of another 15 years, so long as the characters remain great.

Following AMC’s season 3 green light, The Walking Dead fans bite back against AI allegations surrounding the new Dead City poster.

Last year, Walking Dead franchise executive producer Scott M. Gimple, who joined Reedus and McBride in EW's Comic-Con studio this year along with Daryl Dixon executive producer David Zabel, told EW it was his "fervent hope" to be able to reunite characters from across the extended franchise.
