Laurie Holden mentioned that she did not like how 'Andrea' was written out of "The Walking Dead".

"I think the departure from book Andrea to the screen was a mistake. I think the whole stuff that they wrote about Andrea and the Governor was complete and utter nonsense. I did the best that I could to tell that narrative, and to justify it where Andrea kept her heart. I love Scott Gimple for giving me a gorgeous death with redemption so that you understood, and she wasn't a victim -- she died on her own terms.

But I think that there was so much beautiful narrative that was lost and that she should have been there a long time, and been the leader that Robert Kirkman created in the comic book."

Though she loved her experience on "The Sopranos", Lorraine Bracco said that she didn't like how 'Dr. Melfi' “abruptly” discarded 'Tony Soprano'.

“I just felt that David Chase wanted me to get rid of Tony [Soprano]. I would have liked for it to have been more meaningful. I mean, I think she cared for Tony. Even though he was a screw up and maybe he was never going to really straighten out… I think she really cared for him.

You don’t spend seven years with someone and discard them. I felt bad about that. It was rough and abrupt.”
