Is The Walking Dead on this weekend? No, Tales of the Walking Dead is!
By Renee Hansen
Fans of The Walking Dead will have a bit of a wait for the next new episode of the series. On October 2, AMC will air the first episode of season 11, part 3. This segment of eight episodes will complete the flagship series story allowing for the continued stories that will be featured in several spinoffs. The first new spinoff to air is Tales of the Walking Dead.
This spinoff features six episodes in its first season, all stand-alone stories introducing several new characters. The unique thing about this series is that each episode takes place in a different part of the country at different times during the apocalypse. This concept is an excellent addition to The Walking Dead universe as viewers get a broader view of how the outbreak has affected different parts of the country and how different people have handled the situation.
Keep in mind this series is “stand-alone,” so you can still enjoy it if you have never watched an episode of The Walking Dead.

The press previewed the first four episodes, each one being unique, bringing something new to the universe. The standout so far has been “Dee,” which is the episode that sees Samantha Morton reprise her role as Alpha during a time when she was known as Dee. But, I did enjoy each episode as they all had their own merits.
