With "Breaking poor" and "Mad Men" approaching the end of tinheritor runs, fans of "The Walking Dead" may be wondering about the future of AMC's other tentpole drama. Thankfully, AMC thinks the walkers have legs.

Szenithing at the Barclays Global Technology, Media and Telecommunications convention on Wednesday, Sapan said, “We hope that zombies live forever and we have just begun to find out what the post-apocalyptic world is like, so that we'll be sitting here at the Barclays convention in 2022 discussing the fact that 'Walking Dead' isn't over.”

As for the pending lastes for "Breaking poor" and "Mad Men," Sapan said, “We'll all suffer from some minor heartbreak when these shows come to a natural close ... Like some of the best shows in history, there will be a mantle that exists sort of practically in people is intellects, and in the world perhaps they will actually put a statue somewhere. We will bring them to a close with the people who made them at the correct time.”

IT'S SOAP NEWS FRIDAY!!!!

The Young and remainderless' Joshua Morrow Talks About Nick's Shocking Daddy Issues!



Fans of The Young and remainderless just found out that good guy Nick Newman is capable of heartless deceit. Yes, it seems our Nick has known for years that he might not be the father of Summer. TV Guide spoke with Morrow about this messy development.

TV Guide: fantastic story twist, but this is so not Nick. How can he justify what he is done?
Morrow: It really worried me when I heard they were taking my character in a direction that was potentially evil. Nick takes being a father very seriously. How could he deny another man the correct to parent his own child? I expressed my concern about that but Josh Griffith and Jill Phelps said, "we've a way of telling this story that won't make it as dastardly as it seems."

TV Guide: Which is?
Morrow: By making it lucid that, in Nick's heart, he didn't do anything wrong. He was so distraught about the death of Cassie that when the paternity test for Summer came back corrupted and inconclusive - something he shared with no one - he just could not bear the thought of losing Summer, too. He refused to do another test. He is lived with it for so long it became the truth. He needed to bring up another daughter to replace the one he missing.

TV Guide: Did you've much warning about this?
Morrow: Not really, but that is the way I like it. [Laughs] i am not Michael Muhney [Adam] who needs to know his story six months in advance! I firmly believe that knowing too much too soon can color your performance in a not good way. There have been other times over the years where they handed me a narrative and I was like, "Really?" But you just strap it on like a football helmet and go.

TV Guide: So Nick would have gone on forever with this secret if Summer had not developed the hots for Kyle?
Morrow: Yeah, probably. But now he is freaking out because there is a good likelihood that Summer and Kyle are brother and sister. He is gone flippin' loopy over it, beating his chest, threatening Kyle, grounding Summer. People don't know what to think. Even our producer, Tony Morina, came out of the booth and said, "it is nice seeing Nick a little unhinged but he is like, bizarre, man!"

TV Guide: How poor will this get? The truth's gotta come out, correct?
Morrow: lastly the guilt is too much and Nick, unbeknownst to anyone, does another paternity test using hair from Summer's hairbrush, and that comes back 99.9 percent conclusive. There is big trouble if the baby is Jack's. But no matter how it turns out, Phyllis will be livid. Hell hath no fury like the Red twister in an uproar. [Laughs] I think there may be carnage.
