But Zeke leads a near-unanimous vote of hell no, we won’t go in your time of need (Daryl, though, looks for a moment like he’d be happy taking newly conscious Little Ass-Kicker to safety and calling it a night). Before the big showdown, Mercer gives the outsiders a chance to flee back to A-town. The hospital crew, the baby brigade, the Mercer liberation squad - everyone eventually converges to take out Pamela, who’s holed up at the Estates with the elites, the good meds, and her last remaining loyal troopers. They know that neither amputation nor anything else can save her. But her heroism comes at a steep cost, as she reveals to Eugene that suffered a shoulder bite during the melee. She obliterates the monsters aiming to snack on her child, pulls a Spider-Mom and leaps off an ambulance onto a narrow pole without harming the baby strapped to her chest, and after falling into the mosh pit below, hops to her feet and leaves a path of zombie destruction in her wake. It’s fitting that-with all the talk this season of the future, protecting the kids, and a mother’s burden in bringing a child into this nightmarish world - Rosita goes into mom-surging-with-adrenaline-lifts-car-off-trapped-baby mode. Also in grave danger is baby Coco, who’s in an overturned crib just barely out of reach of a few hungry zombies. He was good people, a talented troubadour and a hero in taking down the Whisperers, but man, we haven’t seen such an outpouring of grief since Ralphie went blind from soap poisoning. Or so it seems when Luke can’t survive his walker-bit amputation. The scenes in the hospital and out on the streets succeed in creating a tension this show hasn’t had in a while - the feeling that, moments before the curtain closes for good, absolutely anyone could kick the bucket. parentless and killing both his siblings would have been far too cruel.) As the survivors shoot and stab their way through the horde, Jules is a fast casualty, followed quickly by Luke, who gets his leg munched on and can only watch as his girlfriend disappears into a crowd of ravenous walkers. (Were all of those introductory flashbacks worth giving away that she wasn’t in any real jeopardy of dying? Anyway, leaving little R.J. Unlike the previous episodes that began with Judith’s narration, this one leaps right into the action as Daryl carries her to a hospital that’s about to be overrun with zombies. Yet for all that was packed into this super-sized series finale, perhaps the one thing missing was the most important - satisfying closure. There were fireballs, flashbacks and flash-forwards, and finally, the long-awaited semi-return of Rick and Michonne. If you were hoping for an apocalyptic “Red Wedding,” you were likely disappointed by only one significant character’s death - though by the time she breathed her last, you were likely all out of heartstrings to tug on. In a sense, Judith is also talking to us, the legion of Walking Dead watchers who’ve stuck with the series from the beginning, through good times (seasons one through four, early Saviors, Lizzie looking at the flowers) and bad (Glenngate, season six, late Saviors, all of Lizzie’s storyline before she looked at the flowers). We hope the show concludes strongly, allowing fans to part with the story with ease.“You deserve a happy ending, too,” Judith says to her Uncle Daryl, in one of the episode’s many poignant moments. It currently holds a score of 83% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is impressive for a series on its 11th outing. So far, the eleventh season has generally had positive reviews. We expect the show to then release weekly episodes. The 17th episode of season 11 is titled “Lockdown,” written by Julia Ruchman. The final part of the eleventh and last season of The Walking Dead will premiere on October 2, 2022, on AMC and AMC+. When does The Walking Dead Return in 2022? AMC has another ten years of plans with this franchise, so it will be interesting to see what they do next. Initially, the intention was to take The Walking Dead up to season 12, but with spin-offs, movies, and new series in the pipeline, coupled with the pandemic delays, it made sense for AMC to stagger out the episodes to keep interest alive as they re-arrange their new schedule. Secondly, there have been plans to extend this Universe. First, the covid-19 pandemic halted production, forcing AMC to announce that season 11 would not premiere in October 2020 as planned. There are several reasons why the final season was split into three parts, speculative and confirmed. Why was The Walking Dead season 11 split into three parts?
