Cudlitz, who portrayed Abraham for 38 episodes of The Walking Dead, spoke about his character’s “borrowed time” on the latest episode of AMC’s post-show recap, Talking Dead.
The Walking Dead continues next Sunday with ‘The Well’ @9pm on AMC.
But as Cudlitz himself explained, Abraham’s “borrowed time” allowed the character to be further developed on The Walking Dead TV show than in the graphic novels and made his departure that much more significant.
The Walking Dead shocked and repulsed audiences with its season 7 premiere, as two major characters met their end at the hands of the villainous Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).
