the walking dead

The Walking Dead has reached an age where AMC must naturally consider an endpoint, or at least where stars might jump ship. Even Rick might leave this world behind at some point, and both Andrew Lincoln and showrunners are already considering the possibility.

Long before The Walking Dead had us sweating Negan’s first victim, fans were concerned how AMC might replicate the villain’s colorful language. We’ve seen alternate takes on DVD, but it seems AMC may finally allow Jeffrey Dean Morgan to let a few F-bombs drop in Season 8.

There’s no lingering mystery The Walking Dead Season 8 needs to wallop with a baseball bat; just the “all out war” promised in our fall premiere’s new synopsis. Read for yourself, as Season 8 finally sees Rick ready to take the fight to Negan, along with a little help from his friends.

Any fan of The Walking Dead knew changes were coming with the war against Negan, though the Season 8 trailer seemingly spoiled a major twist ahead. Or perhaps not, as Robert Kirkman teases Season 8’s October premiere will introduce us to the older Rick glimpsed in the footage.

Seven years in, The Walking Dead was bound to conflict with fan-favorites taking other work. AMC’s horror smash usually takes precedence, but according to recent reports, at least three Walking Dead favorites will have reduced roles in Season 8.

We’re now eight seasons into The Walking Dead, and three into companion series Fear The Walking Dead, so there’s no pretending the world is fighting back. An extended new featurette for the latter’s June premiere cements as much, also revealing exactly what became of Madison, Travis, Nick, Strand and Alicia since Season 2.

It’s tough to say whether The Walking Dead is set in its ways, or might surprise us in Season 8’s “All Out War.” Either way, at least one notable tweak is in order, as showrunner Scott Gimple says Season 8 will address a long-running fan complaint over the series’ pacing.

Between its premiere and finale, The Walking Dead Season 7 left a few holes in its expansive lineup of regulars. Thankfully, Season 8 has made the garbage choice to keep around our new scavenger frenemies, along with Negan’s right-hand man and more.

AMC’s Walking Dead rarely strays too far off the beaten path of Robert Kirkman’s comics, as the recent Season 7 finale proved with the kickoff to “All Out War.” There’s plenty of immediate ground to cover in Season 8, but might the next run bring us to another major story shift from the books? Showrunner Scott Gimple weighs in.

‘The Walking Dead’ Season 7 finale starts all-out war with “The First Day of the Rest of Your Life,” but was THAT notable death way too predicable? And how will Season 8 sustain this level of conflict? Find out in our full review!

One year after The Walking Dead Season 6 built toward Negan’s arrival, the leather-clad villain is once again ready to face off with Rick; this time with armies on both sides. So reveals the official trailer for Season 7 finale “The First Day of the Rest of Your Life,” along with a new clip.

Sunday’s The Walking Dead broke with our regularly scheduled anti-Negan recruitment to bring us Eugene’s introduction to the Saviors’ world, but next Sunday will inevitably “Say Yes” to another hour on the road to rebellion. To wit, Season 7 may even have a little fun in that regard, as Rick and Michonne’s search for guns brings them to a carnival in new clips.
