‘Talking Dead’ spoilers: Emily Kinney, John Barrowman, Ana Gasteyer to talk ‘Stabtown’

Given that tonight’s new episode of “The Walking Dead” is all about Beth, should you really be surprised that “Talking Dead” has booked Emily Kinney? The simple answer to that should be “no.”

The actress behind the character is one of many people appearing on the Chris Hardwick talk show tonight after “Slabtown,” which is going to include both her own story of survival, and possibly even learning if she is rescued by some familiar faces.

As for the rest of the guests on the show tonight, we have to begin with a man in John Barrowman who we’ve described frequently as one of our favorite people ever. He’s just so electric a personality, and it is fun to hear the man talk about almost anything under the sun. He’s a busy guy these days thanks to his “Arrow” commitments, but he has still figured out a way to come out to Los Angeles to make the interview happen. You are also going to have Ana Gasteyer from “Saturday Night Live” appear, which means an added dose of comedy. This may be one of the funniest, most-chaotic editions for the talk show to date.

Remember here, though, that a Kinney appearance on the show does not quite mean that she is dead. We know in advance that this is a big episode for the character, which is more than a little bit different than when Andrew J. West appeared on the show last week for what ended up being his own personal send-off after Gareth was killed off.
