Looking back, there have actually been season finale episodes in years past stronger than Rest in Peace. And it would have been a fine season had there been a new season coming, but as it stands, some are feeling a bit short changed. The theme is compelling enough, the tension is plausible, and for the most part, the story lines are not too absurd. In all, as a whole, the eleventh season of The Walking Dead was perhaps the most entertaining and evenly paced since Rick’s departure back in the ninth season. However, for others, they might be cutting their ties and thanking The Walking Dead for the memories.īTS – The Walking Dead Season 11, Episode 24 – Photo Credit: Curtis Bonds Baker/AMC A lot to digest, for some it is exciting that they will be able to continue along a journey with these characters.
#AMC THE WALKING DEAD SEASON 11 SERIES#
Of course, there is Fear the Walking Dead which has run since 2015 and The Walking Dead: World Beyond running since 2020… but what is next? While all the details are still unclear, there will reportedly be a Daryl (Norman Reedus) spin-off Walking Dead series set in Europe, while Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) will have their spin-off series called Dead City, and finally, Michonne (Danai Gurira) and Rick (Andrew Lincoln) will at last get a spin-off series as well. However, as unresolved as The Walking Dead’s finale might feel, you cannot help but ponder the idea that AMC and the series creators planned it this way. A conclusion not much different than prior triumphs of our chosen hero’s past, this time around there is no tomorrow. Briefly recapping everything that transpired in season 11, the drama of the Commonwealth and the city’s political corruption is at last snuffed out thanks to the mainstay Walking Dead characters uniting together one last time. Why? Well, it has been twelve years and many dedicated viewers justifiably wanted more resolve than Rest in Peace might have had to offer. Drawing in 2.27 million views in the episodes premiere, for some, the series finale is a very uneven and unfulfilled ending. Wrapping up after initially launching the final season back in August 2021, the final episode ever of The Walking Dead is fittingly entitled Rest in Peace.
