Just when you thought the uproar surrounding AMC's decision to renew 'The Walking Dead' for season 4 without show-runner Glen Mazzara had died down, 'Sons of Anarchy' creator Kurt Sutter has stoked the fires once again.

Now, Sutter has gone positively nuclear, slamming both Kirkman and AMC for a lack of knowledge in show-running in his latest video blog entry. Will the madness never cease?

'The Walking Dead' Season 3: Which Dead Character Might Return?

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Fri, 09 Nov 2012 21:29:56 +0000

As if the point hadn't been hammered into our skulls a dozen or so times by now (in some cases literally), death might come for anyone on AMC's 'The Walking Dead.' This past Sunday saw two major unexpected deaths hanging a dark cloud over the series, but one idea yet to be explored has been the resurrection of dead characters via flashback, or even dream sequences.
