Couldn&#8217;t the audience hear the zombies sometimes and not see them, to  save on makeup? The source says Darabont fought &#8220;a constant battle to  keep the show big in scope and style.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Hollywood Reporter is saying that Frank Darabont was fired from The Walking Dead!
