Robert Kirkman Talks To Entertainment Weekly About Season 2 Episode 4 “Cherokee Rose” **SPOILERS**

**SPOILERS!**

Entertainment Weekly got a chance to sit down with Robert Kirkman for an interview mainly about Episode 4.  In the interview EW and Kirkman kick things off by talking about the Glenn and Maggie sex scene, they then go on to talk about Lori’s pregnancy, Daryl’s sensitive side, Rick’s leadership skills, and a bit about how Kirkman and the writers are preparing for Season 3.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Let’s talk about the sex scene — or rather, the lack of a sex scene. It’s interesting that the makers of a zombie show which features people wearing undead innards get a bit squeamish when it comes to people making sweet beautiful love.

ROBERT KIRKMAN: That’s more of a comment on America as a whole and television’s standards and practices than it is on us. It is kind of absurd that in an episode where you see the inside of a bloated, water-logged corpse, you can’t see so much as a butt cheek. That’s the world we’re living in. But I think it’s important to view the relationship between Maggie and Glenn in a certain light. I don’t think we wanted to turn that into some kind of steamy, pornographic sex romp.

So there won’t be an X-rated, wakka-wakka guitar-accompanied hardcore bonus scene on the season 2 DVD?

If you would like to see video of Stephen Yeun in various states of undress, email after this interview and I’ll hook you up.

Oh, I will. Speaking of the well-zombie sequence, if I had been writing that scene, I would have had someone say, “It puts the lotion in the basket!”

[Laughs] Did it appear like our homage to Silence of the Lambs?

Not at all. I’m saying I would have made it an homage to Silence of the Lambs.

[Laughs] Well, maybe we’re not hack writers like some people.

Touché! The big reveal at the end of the show was Lori’s pregnancy. Can you confirm, chronology-wise, that the father could be either Shane or Rick?

The way the time line works, that is definitely, technically the case.
