With the Season 5 mid-season finale of The Walking Dead on its way, Robert Kirkman is looking back on his past mistakes. Particularly the Season 1 finale. Kirkman recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the first finale:

“If I had to do it again, I wouldn't have done the CDC episode [at the end of season one]. It possibly gave away too much information and was such a big change very early on in the series."

Kirkman went on to add that episode wasn’t quite what he wanted in The Walking Dead:

"I feel like there might have been a better way to wrap up the first season. It ended up being a fun episode. I love the character of Dr. Jenner and thought Noah [Emmerich] did an amazing job. But there were things in that episode that I think seem very much not of The Walking Dead world."
