Whenever I have to do an emotional scene, I just take my contacts out and it means I can't see anything.
Laurie HoldenI think that Comic-Con is just a wonderful forum. It's just the perfect place for our show and the fans have embraced us so wonderfully. I would be shocked, if we weren't back every year.
Laurie HoldenI was pretty nervous when I met Robert Kirkman. It's very strange to meet someone who created you. Andrea [ from The Walking Dead] is still very much alive and kicking, seven years into the comic book, so to meet Robert and be like, "Hi, I'm Andrea," I had to just hope that he was happy with the decision.
Laurie HoldenI thought it would fit a niche. I didn't anticipate, nor do I think anybody did, that it would become this global phenomenon, the way that it has. The critics have been so kind and favorable, it has really garnered such wonderful praise, and the numbers have been through the roof. It's actually been quite surreal. I'm still pinching myself because it's amazing. For me, we went to Atlanta and we spent our summer shooting this little zombie show, and it was ours. It was our sweet little zombie show [The Walking Dead], and the world has embraced us.
