Here is a very interesting interview with Glen Mazzara.

We’ve heard about the casting of David Morrissey as The Governor. What’s your vision of how the Governor plays into the TV show?

 

In the comic, the Governor is a villain. Our Governor is also, clearly, a villain. He may not be as readily apparent as what’s in the comic book. We will certainly put our spin on that. But we have a dynamic, compelling character that we’re excited to bring into season 3. We expect to tell a story about two different groups of people: Rick’s band of survivors, and the Governor’s world of Woodbury.2

 

 

Speaking of torturing Rick! In the comic books, Rick lost a hand during his first meeting with the Governor. Are you going to keep that plot point in the next season?

 

There’s material in the comic that does pose challenges to us. When we deviate from the comic book, it’s because we really feel it would not translate onto a weekly TV show. If he loses his hand, and he ever meets Merle, how do they shake hands?

 

T-Dog managed to survive the season finale. I think it’s fair to say that, of all the characters, I think we’ve gotten to know him the least. Is he more of a presence next year?

 

There is a plan for T-Dog. Given all of the things that I had to focus on to develop the show in a way that I felt was best, I will say that T-Dog got short shrift. We took care of business, and now we can delve into Michonne and the Governor and T-Dog and all these other characters. T-Dog fans will be happy. We’re no longer interested in having a character in the background only saying one line per episode. We’re done with that. But again, we only had so much real estate, and it was very important for me to tell Rick’s story.
