Summary
The Walking Deadwas one of the most compelling shows to hit screens throughout its eleven seasons but, seemingly, the long-running actor from the AMC post-apocalyptic series who plays Carl Grimes thinks thatArcanetakes the top spot over them all, including his own.The Walking Deadis already over 14 years old since it first premiered with that iconic scene of Rick waking up in an empty hospital after being in a coma for weeks, unaware of what was happening to the world outside. Based on the comic book series by Robert Kirkman.The Walking Deaddid an incredible job of not only turning its “walkers” into terrifying and intimidating creatures but also how it managed to capture the show’s real threat, which was its people.
Although Chandler Riggs, who plays Carl Grimes inThe Walking Dead,was only ten years old in season one, the talented actor quickly cemented his stay as one of the show’s best characters due to his dramatic story arc that saw him having to grow up too fast on account of having to adapt to the dangerous environment around him and also the death of his mother, in which he then had to help care for his baby sister, Judith. In 2017, Riggs would sadly see the end of the iconic character he spent years playing after the series took a drastic turn from its comic book source andkilled Carl off midway throughThe Walking Dead’s eighth season.
To showcase how much he loves Netflix’sArcane,Chandler Riggs has taken to his social media accountto express a very interesting opinion about theLeague of Legendsanimated series. In his tweet, Riggs announced that he thoughtArcanewas the best show ever, including any other live-action or animated series. Due toArcane’s popularity and its return for its second and last season, many would agree with Riggs, but it’s also a slightly surprising response since he was a part of such an iconic show asThe Walking Dead, which drew in millions of viewers each week for many years.
Granted,The Walking Deaddid begin to slip in viewershipin its latter seasons due to underwhelming narrative choices, especially causing outrage when the show killed off Glenn, one of its most popular characters, but it seems that Riggs has enjoyedArcaneso much that he may have forgotten all about how great his own show once was. Thankfully for Riggs,more stories are reportedly going to happen afterArcane,which could see a huge world ofLeague of Legendslore begin to open up.
As forThe Walking Deadfranchise, it has been enjoying plenty of spin-offs, which have included the recently concludedFear the Walking Deadand the ongoing adventure of thecrossbow-wielding DarylinThe Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.For fans who are wondering what is happening withThe Walking Dead: Dead City, otherwise known as the “Maggie and Negan spinoff”, AMC has officially ordered season two of the show, which hopefully should start filming soon.
