While a new season of The Walking Dead has been a lock, fans of the live aftershow, Talking Dead, and the freshman reality series, Comic Book Men, have been in limbo concerning the two shows.
On May 9, AMC officially announced a second season renewal for both shows. New seasons of each show will consist of 16 half-hour episodes and the returning shows should help AMC hold on to viewers after the comic book horror lead-in.
Said Kevin Smith, executive producer of Comic Book Men and owner of Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash, of the news:
Pinch my fat ass, 'cause I must be dreaming! A thousand thank you's wouldn't cover the gratitude I'm feeling right now. And as you might imagine, everyone at SModcast Pictures is in love with everyone at AMC today! Rest assured, Walt, Bry, Mike, Ming and I are suited up and ready to hit the ice for our second season with Team AMC.
