Carroll is a cable TV powerhouse and the force behind some of cable’s most-talked about shows. In addition to leading AMC, BBC America, IFC, SundanceTV and WE tv, he spearheads the growing AMC Nets International division. He was instrumental in the simultaneous worldwide rollout of “The Walking Dead” companion series “Fear the Walking Dead” in over 125 countries. 2015 was another landmark year for the witty exec, who oversaw the expansion of AMC Studios, which cranks out content including “The Walking Dead,” “TURN: Washington’s Spies,” “Halt and Catch Fire,” “Rectify,” “Fear the Walking Dead,” “Into the Badlands” and “Hap and Leonard.”
