Talking Dead guests for The Walking Dead episode 801 ‘Mercy’
By Adam Carlson
The two-hour Talking Dead episode following the season 8 premiere of The Walking Dead has a stellar guest list that includes a ton of surprises for fans.
Talking Dead has been keeping fans up to date on their favorite zombie survival drama shows since the first episode aired on October 16, 2011 following the season 2 premiere of The Walking Dead.
That tradition continues as the most popular show on cable television kicks off season 8 on Sunday, October 22, 2017 and Chris Hardwick will once again discuss the undead action from the episode titled ‘Mercy’.
Instead of wondering who will be on the couch as a guest for the episode, the better question is who won’t be. It has been announced that Talking Dead will be a 2-hour special, but there will be tons of guests on hand for the show!
