‘The Walking Dead’ season 5: Odds and ends with Norman Reedus, Andrew Lincoln

With there being no breaking news from AMC about “The Walking Dead” or its future, we’re pleased to present something that is both a little bit different, and also rather hilarious: Some assorted headlines coming from a pair of actors.

Norman Reedus’ message to Peter Dinklage – We will start with this story, mostly because we find it to be the funniest thing that we’ve had to report about today: A message from Norman’s Daryl Dixon to Peter’s Tyrion Lannister following the season 5 finale of “Game of Thrones.” (Obvious spoiler alert ahead.)

If there is one person who would be extremely impressed about the fact that Tyrion chose a crossbow to kill Tywin Lannister, it would be Daryl; thanks to that, the image below from Norman’s Instagram account is certainly appropriate. It’s also hilarious, and we are mostly surprised we did not think of this sooner.

Andrew Lincoln is very much alive – Just in case anyone was worried about that ridiculous death hoax that started a few days ago. For a while, these sort of stories, typically from an outlet that is fake and uses the same manner of death time after time, were dormant. Now, they seem to think that publishing these all over again is cool.

The way to know that this one was fake, though, was completely obvious: They claimed that Andrew died in a snowboarding accident in Switzerland … right in the middle of season 5 production, which is of course in Atlanta. So while Lincoln may be battling his fair share of zombies right now, he’s not becoming anything close to one in real life.
