LOS ANGELES — A Los Angeles judge has dealt another blow to producers of "The Walking Dead" who have been fighting for years for a greater slice of the hit zombie show's profits from its distributor AMC Networks.
L.A. County Superior Court Judge Daniel Buckley, who has presided over the case for the last five years, on Wednesday dismissed most of the claims by the producers that AMC had cheated them out of hundreds of millions in profits from the series and its spinoffs.
The decision is the latest in years of fighting over the fortune generated by the series based on Robert Kirkman's comics. Kirkman is among the group of producers suing AMC over profits from the hit series.
