This series that began in October 2010 has created a universe more significant than anyone could have imagined. The first season is iconic for many reasons and it set the bar for any other ZA series to try and reach. Many fans in TWD Family will agree that seasons 1-3 are some of the best of the series. The early episodes were outstanding as characters were introduced, and the type of zombies for this series was revealed. These early episodes didn’t see the characters venture very far from Atlanta and had a smaller pool of characters to keep track of. As the series continued, storylines were overwhelmed with more characters making it seem less intimate. The Walking Dead season 1The first season of The Walking Dead introduces all of the main characters, several of which had been featured in comic books. Readers of the comic story enjoyed seeing the familiar characters portrayed on the screen.

Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) comes to a gas station that has long been abandoned with signs stating there was no gas at this station. He hears a sound and discovers a walker, the term used for the undead, and not just any walker but a child. The look on his face is devastating as he realizes he will have to put her down. To make the first kill of the series, a child showed viewers that this was more than just a typical zombie show. To answer whether or not season 1 of The Walking Dead is good, the answer would be yes. It begins as a unique take on the zombie genre that focuses on survival rather than only destruction. If you talk to die-hard fans, they will admit the series has had its highs and lows, but overall this is a very good series. The other aspect of The Walking Dead is that when it comes down to it, the undead isn’t the real threat. Humans will always be worse than any of the walkers encountered by the survivors. Over the course of the series, the significant threats have been the villainous humans and their desire to watch the world burn. The first season consisted of six episodes: Plot 101 “Days Gone Bye” The first season is a quick binge with only six episodes and sets up the characters in the original Atlanta group. Of that group, only three have survived, Rick, Daryl and Carol, with only Daryl and Carol still on the series in season 11.

Fans were rocked by the news that The Walking Dead would be coming to an end after Season 11, but it turns out it wasn’t just the audience that was surprised by this development — it was the show’s creators and showrunner as well. Last September, AMC announced that Season 11 would be The Walking Dead's final season, announcing at the same time that a spinoff focused on fan-favorite characters Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride) would debut in 2023 to keep the TWD story going in a different direction. But in a new interview with Collider, The Walking Dead cast member Jeffrey Dean Morgan revealed that the flagship show’s conclusion was news to The Walking Dead chief content officer Scott M. Gimple and showrunner Angela Kang, suggesting the series was originally supposed to run into Season 12 and beyond. Collider’s own Christina Radish spoke to Morgan as part of the press day for his new film The Unholy, and during their interview the actor discussed being surprised by the news that The Walking Dead Season 11 would be the show’s last.
When AMC announced that Season 11 of The Walking Dead would be the end, the network also added eight additional episodes to the season order to expand the storytelling runway for Gimple and Kang, bringing Season 11 to 24 episodes in total. Still, it’s interesting to hear that the show’s conclusion wasn’t 100 percent on Gimple and Kang’s terms, and in a way, it sounds like The Walking Dead was essentially cancelled. At one point in time, the series was the most-watched show on television. But ratings began to decline around the time of Steven Yeun’s exit, and as the popularity of streaming grew, the numbers continued to dwindle — although at the same time, the way people watched the show evolved, and same-day ratings for a Sunday broadcast became less important. AMC has also already announced big franchise expansion plans, including feature films from Gimple that will continue Rick Grimes’ (Andrew Lincoln) story and additional spinoff shows. It just sounds like everyone involved assumed that while the franchise expanded, the flagship series would keep going strong. That said, there’s still a lot of ground left to cover. Morgan revealed that The Walking Dead Season 11 filming is going to take up an entire calendar year, and they’re only on Episode 3 after two months of production:
Morgan continued, noting that Season 11 feels bigger than previous seasons:
At the same time, while the story doesn’t feel like it’s heading down a final path just yet, Morgan said the experience of it all coming to an end still doesn’t quite feel real:
The Walking Dead Season 11 doesn’t yet have a firm premiere date, but AMC has confirmed it will start airing this summer. Look for more in our full interview with Morgan on Collider soon.
