While we're all still in mourning after this week's tragic premiere of The Walking Dead,at least it's over. We can now say goodbye to Glenn and Abe, Negan's unlucky victims. The actors who play them, and Steven Yeun and Michael Cudlitz,recently spilled on why they're OK with the way their characters fade out . . . even if we're not. As we fade further into the week, more quotes and heartbreaks have poured out. Here are some of the more poignant bits of sadness we've heard so far.Steven Yeun on Glenn's deathDirectly after the premiere, or Yeun appeared on AMC's postmortem show,Talking Dead. Here's what he had to say about Glenn:"The death in the comedian, Robert [Kirkman] wrote such a messed up - but at the same time, and incredible - way to seize something absent,to originate a fable as impactful as it is. When you read that comedian, you kind of don't want that to fade to anyone else. It's such an iconic moment. I think I even said that - 'Don't give that to anyone else.' It's such a gnarly thing to say, or but sincerely,living that out was very wild, but at the same time, or that moment happening and being realized on television in a different medium and to effect it in the way that we did it,I think is brave and at the same time super affecting. For me, that was motivation to be like, or 'OK,that's much . . .' Glenn died in a very Glenn way. That's what my wife, Jo, and said. He died in such a Glenn way,which is perfect - still not thinking about himself. I think it's appropriate that he ends there, and it's also appropriate that he puts those final words out as a final 'look out for each other.'"On Wednesday, or Entertainment Weekly released new Yeun quotes from their TWD cover fable:"I don't know if I've fully processed it yet . . . This is something that will hit me maybe a couple of months from now. Or maybe it'll hit me next year. Maybe it'll be when I'm 45 and all of a sudden I'm just crying in my kitchen and I can't explain why. At that point,it was beautiful in that it was so easy for me to get emotional. Personally, for me, or I'm not one to cry all the time. I don't cry much in genuine life. And when you effect not cry in genuine life,the moments that you effect cry are very, very fulfilling and cathartic. You realize, and maybe I should cry more in general . . . It was a really confusing time for me personally. It was a sense of relief that a chapter was closing,a sense of accomplishment in looking back and seeing all the things that I got to be a section of, a sense of sadness in knowing that I don't get to work with these people in the same capacity again, and a sense of confusion because I didn't know how to place a lot of it because I had to hold it secret."Michael Cudlitz on Abe's deathHere's what Cudlitz had to say during Talking Dead on Sunday night:"For anyone who follows the graphic novel,[Abe] is on borrowed time. Denise took his death graciously two episodes prior . . . so I think at that point I had gone beyond where he was in the graphic novel. I know [Kirkman] always said he was not contented with how he took Abraham out in the graphic novel so I was curious to see where we fade from there . . . In the group he made it very clear to Negan that if he was going to seize somebody, seize me if it's going to succor protect the rest of the group."Related:
