I agree, the Hollywood Blvd scare zone last year was a little underwhelming for my tastes. I'm hoping that this year they are able to have a scare zone there that is able to be as good as the Purge or Blood Bayou last year.
As far as TWD, either bring it back or don't. I don't care if it isn't in the park at all or if we get a scare zone/house. All I care about is the fact that if they do include it in the house line up this year, that they make it a great house that is enjoyable for the season. However, the content/ story line of the season thus far doesn't bode well for a house or scare zone.
Hotel will be a giant success no doubt, they would be foolish to not include AHS this year at the peak of its popularity
Ehhhh even at its peak it's not relevant Imo
There still seems to be a disconnect in the online theme park community about just how popular TWD (as a show and an IP) truly is. It's still Star Wars in 1978--the #1 show on TV--cable or broadcast--a couple years running. Dominates the pop culture mindset like nothing else in a generation.
This is an anomaly because it's a cable show. No other cable show has ever had a following like that.
I think Hate was referring to American Horror Story, not TWD.

It's popular with college age tooIt's incredibly relevant, you just aren't in high school

This. A lot of people didn't like Coven and most thought Freak Show was bad. They have to do it this year or it'll never happen.To be frank, it's popular these days mostly with folks lacking in good taste... though that's just my opinion. It's a solid brand, but is losing momentum - the Lady Gaga casting stunt says to me they're getting worried about its long-term future, not to mention the retconning of the entire universe being "connected" between seasons. Add Ryan Murphy kickstarting new shows... I dunno. If they were going to do it, this would be the year. After this? Draw may not be there.

When was HHN ever about relevancy?
rapidly growing fanbase
Since they've had the Walking Dead 3 years in a row.
It went down in ratings last year...
The nice thing about using legendary IPs (i.e. Halloween, New Line Big 3) and original creations is you don't really have to worry about relevancy.
TWD is clearly an exception since there hasn't been another IP to do that in the history of HHN. Also freakshow was one of the most popular shows of last year, don't see where you got that information
