‘Walking Dead’ to End With Expanded Season 11, Daryl-Carol Spinoff Series Set at AMC
Variety ^ | September 9, 2020 | Joe Otterson

“The Walking Dead” will end after the upcoming Season 11 on AMC, with the network also ordering a spinoff series built around the characters Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier, Variety has learned.

Season 11 of AMC’s flagship show, which was originally meant to air this year but was delayed due to the pandemic, will air over two years and consist of 24 episodes in total beginning in late 2021. It was previously announced six additional episodes that will be considered part of Season 10 will be shot and aired in early 2021, meaning 30 additional episodes of “The Walking Dead” remain to be filmed and aired through late 2022. The episode originally intended to be the Season 10 finale is set to air on Oct. 4 after being delayed in April, also due to the pandemic.

The untitled Daryl-Carol spinoff will see “The Walking Dead” stars and fan favorites Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride continue on in those roles. The pair have long been praised for their characters’ onscreen chemistry, with Reedus and McBride currently being the only two cast members of the flagship show who have been onboard since Season 1.

FTWD was an AMC Network show.
SYFY had Z-Nation which ran for about 5 Seasons.

Jeez. 30 more episodes. Yet somehow you knew Daryl was gonna walk away from it intact. Carol, I wasn’t so sure.

If you believe a lot of the NeverTWDers here, no.

I find it funny how some of those bozos jump onto these threads and brag how they stopped watching 5 years ago..They probably would find fault with General Hospital and Keeping Up With the Kardashians too.......

As for me and many others, it's just drama and entertainment and I don't expect anything more than that........I haven't missed an episode and while some episodes were disappointing, it's still the best program on cable and I'm glad to hear it will continue in some form or another.

As for Carol and all the transitions she has undergone, she's the best actress in Hollywood.....What I really want to know is where is Dog?

Personal preference, I think. Some people were turned off by something that happened at the beginning of season 7. It was a bit too gruesome — even for this show. A lot of the characters from early seasons have moved on (possibly to return) or been killed off.

I guess it’s safe to say that Daryl and Carol survive then. Good ... we’ve had enough riots this year.

I haven’t watched the show more than sporadically since Negan entered and I found myself rooting more for the zombies to eat the cast members who had become annoying.//

Yeah same I gave up with Glenn’s death. It had gotten to the point where I’d have been surprised if a cast member didn’t die.

Is Rick suppose to make a reappearance in a future episode?

The last I remember he was swooped away in a helicopter.

The last I heard, Rick was supposed to be in at least one Walking Dead movie for the big screen. It looks like that’s still the plan:

all the same scripts, just different actors and incidentals changed

never have to worry about missing an episode, they’re all the same


It like what Mick Dundee said when he went to NYC and the woman asked him if he ever saw TV. ... He then turned on tbe set and a I Love Lucy rerun was playing. .. And Mick said, yeah I saw TV once. ... And that’s what I saw.. ... Then he turned off the Tv.

I think they should reboot the series straight from the beginning, only a different location and different cast*. Someplace like Denver, perhaps.

Fear the Walking Dead?

And the new British version of the Walking Dead that was to air this summer?

He is going into the movies. No more TV for Rick.

Yeah, that Amazonian dyke chick landed her chopper and scooped him up just in time, IIRC. Be interesting to see how they dispose of Negan. It would be a massive cheat to just let him walk off into the sunset or let him sit in a jail cell abandoned, I don’t care what the graphic novels say. They don’t follow their own canon, anyway. Gotta be something for the ages. Launch him into space without a helmet. Accidentally set off a tactical nuke. Something really good. The rest can get eaten for all I care. LOL!
