No, it's not a zombie sitcom
Despite The Walking Dead, by its very nature, being one of the more depressing series on television, it is also a massive hit. So it wasn’t shocking to learn last year that US network AMC was planning a spin-off companion show. Now we know that Cliff Curtis will be the anchor for the new potential series.
No, the company has not decided to mess with the format and opt for a hilarious zombie sitcom about a woman dealing with both the undead apocalypse and her slovenly, brain-craving husband called Oh, You Rotter! Instead the show, which doesn’t yet have an official title, but is codenamed Cobalt, focuses on a divorced teacher (Curtis), a good man trying to do right as civilization crumbles around him.
He’ll be joined in story by a yet-to-be-cast female guidance counsellor and her kids, who will be played by Frank Dillane and Alycia Debnam Carey. The exact setting for the show has yet to be revealed, so we may not see much of a crossover with Rick and co., except if the new series needs a boost during sweeps time, or they plan a Very Special Zombie Christmas episode. This new embryonic series comes from Dead comic book co-creator (and show executive producer) Robert Kirkman and Sons Of Anarchy/Marco Polo man David Erickson, with Adam Davidson set to direct the pilot.
