The Walking Dead Special on AMC: The Journey So Far

AMC will air a 2-hour special talking a look back at the entire series of The Walking Dead to prepare fans for the big season 7 premiere.

The cast and producers of the monster hit show The Walking Dead, based on Robert Kirkman’s equally popular comic series will look back at the series that debuted on Halloween of 2010 as it prepares to head into its 7th and maybe biggest season yet.

Season 7 starts on October 23rd with the answer to the biggest cliffhanger in the series’ history. On the Sunday before fans finally find out the big Lucille reveal, October 16, AMC will air a retrospective of the show from a perspective of the characters and what they have been through since the beginning.

It will be a fantastic way to remember what it’s like to have Rick and Carol and Michonne on our TV screen on dark cool Sunday nights again. One week later, on October 23rd it will really be here. The Sunday we’ve been waiting for since the leather jacket and red bandanna wearing, cursing man came out of the RV to have us wetting our pants will really be here.
