Source: Bloody Disgusting Here's what executive producer Glenn Mazzara had to say concerning the feedback on the slow-pacing in the first half of season two:
"If there were episodes that felt as if they were stalling or if it felt that they weren't under threat, that perhaps the farm felt too safe and the threats were outside off the farm, a lot of that changes in the back part of the season. I think that things pick up. I think it just becomes more, I don't know what the word is, accelerated. The stakes are higher, more action packed, more interesting."
And here's what fellow executive producer Gale Anne Hurd had to say about additional cast members showing up in the second half:
"I'm excited that we're going to begin to expand beyond Hershel's farm. We're going to encounter new survivors and what does that mean to the group? In addition to the conflict over the leadership of Team Rick vs. Team Shame and the triangle between Lori, Rick and Shane. We're going to encounter people who are survivors that... are they a new threat? Can they offer some sort of salvation?"
Hmmm. Who could be showing up in the second half of season 2? Aside from Michael Rooker, I honestly don't know who it could be as I have never read the graphic novel. Sound off below in the usual spot with who you think it could be! Running Time: 60 minutes (45 min actual air time)
