Fans joined in Mannheim Germany Saturday for Walker Stalker Convention, to celebrate all things un-dead! The second panel of the day was appropriately titled “The Troublemakers” and featured Pollyanna McIntosh, Steven Ogg and Austin Amelio.
The three know what its like to be hated by passionate fans, Austin Amelio spoke briefly about his dread when he found out his character would initially be up against Daryl Dixon. Fans definitely didn’t like him for a long time, but the tables have recently turned. Dwight is now on the side of Rick’s crew, so he is growing on most fans.
Pollyanna spoke about the crazy nature of the show. She says that at a certain point, embracing the crazy is the way to go.
You have to relish it, because what’s the point otherwise? I’d hate for every day to be the same on set.

She touched on that recent scene when she pushed her walker friends into the grinder, only for them to pop out as bloody mush on the other end. She revealed that they made molds of each character that had to go in, and that’s how they made it look so realistic.
What was that bloody goop made out of? Pounds of chili.

Chemistry seemed to spark a lot of curiosity amongst fans. One fan asked Pollyanna if she thinks Rick and Jadis have a lot of chemistry. Her response was that they may, but Jadis always has reasons for her actions. She joked that during the scene in which they locked Rick in the box, he initially wanted to do it naked. He was ultimately talked into leaving his boxers on.
A different fan asked Austin if he thinks that Dwight could get together with Rosita, here’s what he thought.
