Did Mad Males cause Darabont to exit Walking Dead?

We all know Mad Men's Don Draper could be a little of the bad boy, but did he really cause Frank Darabont to depart The Walking Dead?This is the claim produced by the La Occasions, which cites a brand new $10m-a-season contract AMC brokered with Mad Males creator Matthew Weiner as the reason for Darabont's departure.Based on the newspaper, the Mad Males deal created a shortfall in funding for other high-profile AMC shows, such as the Walking Dead and Breaking Bad.The Walking Dead apparently had $250,000 per episode cut from the second season budget and also, since AMC is the owner of the show (unlike Breaking Bad, the industry The new sony property) there could have been no room for settlement.AMC Leader Charlie Collier refused the a couple of things were connected."We are trading a lot more than we have ever have before. The truth that future seasons of Mad Males would be costly isn't a surprise to us. We have taken probably the most costly, riskiest shows around and nurtured them and handled to develop our network," Collier stated.
