After dipping in and out of The Walking Dead, I recently reviewed the first season of its spin-off The Ones Who Live and enjoyed it enough that I couldn’t wait to give one of its other spin-offs a try.

So up step, The Walking Dead: Dead City, a show that immediately feels a bit different because of its location. The Walking Dead in a city feels a little bit fresh right off the bat. This show follows Negan and Maggie, from The Walking Dead, as they travel to a post-apocalyptic Manhattan that is cut off from the mainland. Searching for Maggie’s kidnapped son, they discover New York City is filled with the dead and maybe more dangerous than anywhere else.

The promotion for Dead City seemed to focus quite a lot on the gore,...

Step Into The Walking Dead: Dead City, a gloriously gruesome and gripping new spinoff from one of television’s best-loved franchises. Breathing fresh life into the undead, the brand-new series sees show favourites Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen) and Lauren Cohan (The Boy, The Vampire Diaries) reprise their roles as Negan and Maggie, only this time, their apocalyptic adventures take them into the heart of a zombie-infested Big Apple.

The excitement builds as “A First Look at Daryl Dixon Season 2” approaches its premiere on AMC. This season promises to take viewers deeper into the chaotic world of “The Walking Dead: Dead City.” Maggie and Negan find themselves navigating the treacherous landscape of a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, a place long severed from the rest of the world.

As they venture through the crumbling city, the duo encounters not only the undead but also the unique community of survivors who have made New York City their own. This new world is a mix of anarchy and beauty, filled with danger at every turn. The vibrant yet terrifying backdrop of the city adds a fresh layer to the story, making it more thrilling than ever.

The days of The Walking Dead are over – but now we’re in the era of the continuation spin-offs, with both The Walking Dead: Dead City (check out our review Here) and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (you can read our review Here) heading into their second seasons, with the Daryl Dixon show gaining the extra subtitle The Book of Carol for season 2. Dead City and Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol panels were held back-to-back at the San Diego Comic-Con today. First up, a new teaser trailer for the second season of Dead City!

Lucille is back. Negan’s (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) famous baseball bat (and leather jacket) will return in Season 2 of “The Walking Dead: Dead City,” a teaser at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. Plus, Negan is whistling again, which can’t be good news for anyone.

“I know, I was really exited too,” Morgan said in Hall H when the audience cheered at the Lucille news. “There’s something about that sweet girl that I love… It makes me turn into Negan.”

He added that this season, “he has a love-hate relationship with her.”

Morgan was joined on stage by Lauren Cohan, Željko Ivanek, Gaius Charles as well as showrunner Eli Jorné and chief content officer Scott Gimple.

During its San Diego Comic-Con panel Friday, The Walking Dead: Dead City dropped a sneak peek at Season 2. Suffice it to say that “Bad Negan” is in the house — and he’s not alone, either. He has in hand Lucille, aka the barbed-wire-covered baseball bat that he named after his late wife. (Technically, this would have to be Lucille 2.0, since he broke and cremated the first one back in Season 10 of the mothership.)

Dead City also announced a slew of new cast additions:...

The sun has set on “NCIS: Hawai’i,” leaving the show on a wild cliffhanger.

The series, which ran on CBS for three seasons, said its final aloha on Monday night with a season finale-turned-series finale.

At the end of last week’s episode, the Compound X bioweapon was in the hands of the nefarious Dr. Annalise Cruz (Rachel Mars), the late Alexi Volkoff’s assistant. She also aimed to take out the NCIS Elite team, to the horror of Sam Hanna (LL Cool J).

The episode opens with Sam risking exposing himself to Compound X in order to save his team — a heroic but potentially fatal move that his teammates stop him from doing.

From there, Jesse Boone (Noah Mills) and Jane Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) work to find Cruz, also known as Tala Flores, and save the day. Sam is also chasing her but coughing a lot, eventually falling and confirming mild Compound X exposure.

So it’s no surprise that we’re getting a The Walking Dead: Dead City season 2 – and today, Deadline reports that Kim Coates of Sons of Anarchy has joined the cast as a gang leader named Bruegel.

According to Deadline, Bruegel is “the leader of one of the fiercest gangs in New York City who is more manipulative and intelligent than we might have assumed.”

With The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live ending its six-episode run on AMC and concluding Rick and Michonne’s story, the wider Walking Dead universe is calling.

Deadline reports that The Walking Dead: Dead City has added a Sons of Anarchy alum to its already-impressive Season 2 cast.

Kim Coates has landed a “heavily recurring role” for the zombie spin-off’s second season, but sadly, no details have been revealed about who he’ll be playing.

The spin-offs that have taken place following the conclusion of the mothership have notoriously kept details about who new actors will be playing under wraps.

Exclusive: Sons of Anarchy alum Kim Coates is joining the Season 2 cast of The Walking Dead: Dead City in a heavily recurring role opposite Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

He will play Bruegel, the leader of one of the fiercest gangs in New York City who is more manipulative and intelligent than we might have assumed.

“The Walking Dead’s” first post-series finale spin-off has reached the end of its debut season. “The Walking Dead: Dead City” Season 1 concludes with “Doma Smo” (“we are home” in English), with all of the show’s storylines finally coming to a head in the Big Apple.

At the start, Maggie, Negan, Perlie (Gaius Charles), and Ginny (Mahina Napoleon) all reconvene in a vacant lot, the narratives all converging as one. Last episode, it was revealed that Ginny uncovered that Maggie was lying about the terms of the deal to get Hershel back from the Croat (Željko Ivanek). Negan is frustrated that Ginny has willingly thrown herself into danger by entering New York City, despite Maggie setting her up with shelter at The Bricks.

Dead City’s first season has wrapped, but the saga of Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) won’t end here for fans of The Walking Dead. Indeed, AMC announced during San Diego Comic-Con 2023 that the show had been renewed for a second season.

Maggie and Negan have grown to resemble one another more over time, with Maggie’s slide into “any means necessary” violence countering Negan’s attempts at redemption in whatever form he can get it. This season saw all of their old animosities dragged back into the light but also showed what “a badass team” they can be when working together.

The final episode resolved surprisingly few of the plot elements established in the first episode and instead opted to set up future developments. When we leave Maggie and her son Hershel, their relationship...

The Walking Dead: Dead City Episode 6

The first season of The Walking Dead: Dead City has spent a great deal of time developing some kind of bond between Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Maggie (Lauren Cohan). It’s entirely one-sided, as this episode shows, with Negan doing everything he can to try and help Maggie get past the lingering trauma of Glenn’s death at his hand. Maggie couldn’t let it go in season 11 of The Walking Dead, and she cannot let it go now, even though Hershel (Logan Kim) is a teenager and she’s moved on from Hilltop and Alexandria. Hershel long ago let the urge to kill Negan go. Negan long ago atoned for the sins of his past (to most people he’s offended). However, Maggie can’t let it go.

Maggie isn’t Maggie Greene anymore.

Maggie and Negan have come a long way in the first season of AMC's The Walking Dead: Dead City TV show. As we all know, Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Dead City is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustrated when their viewing habits and opinions aren't considered, we invite you to rate all of the first season episodes of Dead City here. *Status Update Below.

AMC has renewed two of its Walking Dead spinoffs for second seasons: “Dead City” and “Daryl Dixon.”

“Dead City” follows Maggie and Negan as they travel to a decimated Manhattan in search of Maggie’s kidnapped son. The series stars Lauren Cohan, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Zeljko Ivanek, Gaius Charles, Mahina Napoleon, Logan Kim, Jonathan Higginbotham, and Karina Ortiz. The six-episode first season premiered on June 18.

“Daryl Dixon” stars Norman Reedus as Daryl washes ashore in France and struggles to piece together how he got there and why. The series tracks his journey across a broken but resilient France as he hopes to find a way back home. Along the way, he forms connections that complicate his ultimate plan.

The renewals come ahead of the first season finales of both series. “Dead City” will conclude on July 23, and “Daryl Dixon” will debut on September 10.

In addition to the renewals,...

“The Walking Dead” spinoffs “Dead City” and “Daryl Dixon” have both been renewed for second seasons at AMC.

The announcement was made at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. For “Dead City,” the renewal comes ahead of the first season finale on July 23. Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan star in the series as Maggie and Negan respectively. “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon,” which stars Norman Reedus, is due to debut in September.

“This next chapter in the ‘Walking Dead’ Universe continues to thrive with a terrific inaugural season for ‘Dead City’ and highly anticipated new journey for fan-favorite character Daryl Dixon coming in September,” said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. “We can’t wait to bring ‘Dead City’ fans back to the epicenter of Manhattan for more zip-lining action with Maggie and Negan. And, ahead of its debut, we’re thrilled to double down...

Picking up right where the previous episode of “The Walking Dead: Dead City” left off, Maggie and co. dig deeper through the Methane-filled sewers of New York City while Negan and Marshall Perlie Armstrong (Gaius Charles) venture off on their own journey through the city. Ginny (Mahina Napoleon) is now also along for the ride after intervening during the attack on Madison Square Garden.

Napoleon’s character continues to not say a word, choosing only to communicate through judgmental glances. Meanwhile, the Croat (Željko Ivanek) takes a rage-fueled trip to an abandoned theater where he reports the recent skirmish to a mysterious woman called the Dama (Lisa Emery) who seems to be his superior.

The Methane in the sewers causes Maggie to aggressively hallucinate, once again replaying the visual of Glenn (Steven Yeun) getting his head bashed in by Negan. The shocking flashback was very effective in the series pilot,...

“The Walking Dead: Dead City” continues its run with Episode 4, “Everybody Wins a Prize.” Negan, Maggie and the band of survivors they’ve united with are on the attack. Seeking to reclaim Maggie’s son Hershel from the grasp of the evil Croat (Željko Ivanek), the group devises a plan that involves Negan distracting his former Savior while the rest of them swoop in to rescue Hershel. Housed in an abandoned Madison Square Garden, the Croat’s base of operation makes for a stellar “Walking Dead” villain lair.

Using his signature whistle to lure the Croat deep into the depths of his stadium, Negan engages in a cat-and-mouse sequence as the Croat hunts him down throughout the once lively building. The chase results in a stand-off on a catwalk, with the Croat boasting about the new “Sanctuary” he’s created in the wake of Negan forcing him out of the...

The Walking Dead: Dead City Episode 3

My initial comparison between The Walking Dead: Dead City and Escape from New York was, at first glance, only surface level. There are similarities, clearly, but I had no idea that The Croat (Zeljko Ivanek) was having gladiator fights in a non-union store-brand equivalent of the Octagon. Now it’s clear that Dead City is a riff on Escape from New York, and as far as things to pattern your show after, you could do worse than John Carpenter. He’s the master of genre flicks, after all; for all the emphasis on human drama and soap opera emotions, The Walking Dead universe is a survival horror universe at its very core, and touches like this show a willingness to embrace that.

Of course, you have to have something in between all the special effects and action sequences.

Our journey into apocalyptic New York City continues with “The Walking Dead: Dead City” Episode 2, titled “Who’s There?” Continuing right where Episode 1 left off, Maggie and Negan are chasing a strange, long haired woman (Eleanor Reissa) who has swiped their bags. During the pursuit, the duo encounter ziplines that allow for traversal between buildings. A particularly impressive shot shows Maggie desperately nudging herself to the end of the zipline, as she risks getting stuck hanging above the walker-infested streets of Manhattan. After catching the thief, they realize she meant no harm and simply wants to trade.

The entire chase sequence is a bit jarringly paced, and the opening moments of the episode lack the cinematic urgency of a sequence where Maggie and Negan are being robbed. In the end, the long-haired woman leads Maggie and Negan to a survivor community (including Jonathan Higginbotham’s Tommaso and Karina Ortiz’ Amaia) nestled inside a building,...

We’re about halfway done with 2023, and any cable drama premieres that come along in the second half of the year have a new viewership number to try to beat.

The Hollywood Reporter notes that “Dead City also became the top series premiere ever on the AMC+ streaming service, in both viewers and acquisition, surpassing Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches (though as usual with streaming platforms, detailed viewing figures aren’t made public).”

Of course, 1.12 million is far below the number of viewers that used to tune in for...

AMC’s “The Walking Dead” has crawled back out of its shallow grave following the series finale that aired back in November with “The Walking Dead: Dead City.” The first of many spin-offs on the horizon, “Dead City” follows Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as they venture into a walker-infested New York City to rescue Maggie and Glenn’s son Hershel who has been kidnapped by a former-Savior.

Set a few years after the flagship series’ strong finale, Maggie and Negan have gone their separate ways since their intensive conversation in the final episode. Maggie continues to float between Hilltop and other adjacent communities. Negan has taken a nomad approach to life, getting into all sorts of trouble around the post-apocalyptic wasteland. After a no-good group of baddies begins demanding resources monthly from one of Maggie’s communities, they take young Hershel as a collateral hostage. Meanwhile,...

The Walking Dead: Dead City Episode 1

Picking up where a show left off should be old hat for the creative team behind The Walking Dead: Dead City. After all, The Walking Dead and Fear The Walking Dead did that kind of thing all the time. Every few seasons, when there was a narrative need, they jumped forward in time, scrambled locations and places, and generally reset things as befitted the story they want to tell. As such, the new lives for Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) don’t feel jarring. We’ve already been through at least one or two Maggie reboots at this point; what’s another one?

The story is your basic action movie set-up. Someone’s got her child, in this case a teenage Hershel (Logan Kim), and she’s got to get him back...

As I continue to decompress after the recent onslaught of finales, it remains perplexing how quiet last fall’s conclusion to The Walking Dead was. Sure, the show was no longer a critical favorite or an audience juggernaut, but The Walking Dead spent years as one of the most discussed shows on all of television, only to lurch haltingly into the sunset.

Or maybe there was an instinct to devalue the ostensible series finale of The Walking Dead because AMC had already announced a bevy of upcoming spinoffs. What was the point in getting worked up about missing our favorite remaining grungy survivalists and the zombies who loved to eat them when we knew nobody was going to be gone for long?

TV show description:

A post-apocalyptic horror drama series, The Walking Dead: Dead City was created by Eli Jorné and is based on characters from The Walking Dead series.

The story follows Maggie Greene (Cohan), the widow of Glenn and the former leader of the Hilltop, and the reformed former leader of the Saviors, Negan Smith (Morgan).

AMC's The Walking Dead universe has been expanding quickly in recent years.

With the conclusion of the main series in 2022 after 11 seasons, many fans desired to continue the journeys of their favorite characters.

There were many reservations when Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) were announced to be headlining The Walking Dead: Dead City.

Maggie and Negan's story ended bittersweetly as they both agreed to co-exist.

As a result, The Walking: Dead City's existence would probably kickstart one of the most polarizing alliances on TV.

Thankfully, The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 1 delivers a compelling tale that ushers in an exciting next chapter for The Walking Dead franchise.

All six episodes were provided for critics, highlighting AMC's confidence that fans will connect with this next chapter.

The series picks up several years after The Walking Dead Season 11 Episode 24, with Maggie on a quest to New York City to locate her son.

Plot: Follows Maggie and Negan traveling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror.

Review: After eleven years on the air, The Walking Dead aired its series finale just seven months ago. While the series wrapped up many storylines, it failed to feel like a finale as it laid the groundwork for not one or two but at least three spin-offs. While the Rick and Michone series and the Daryl Dixon story won’t debut until later, Dead City is the first new title in The Walking Dead universe. Led by Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Maggie Rhee and Negan, Dead City finds the adversarial duo forced to team up to rescue Maggie’s son, Hershel, from a villain...

AMC continues to mine “The Walking Dead” to death. It has been nearly 13 years since the original series first aired, and yet none of its three spin-offs — soon to be four, plus an additional two in the works — have recaptured the magic of those early Rick Grimes-led seasons. After “The Last of Us” revived the prestige zombie genre with impressive quality and creativity earlier this year, AMC’s insistence on franchising continues to dilute the zombie drama du jour.

The latest spin-off, created and written by “The Walking Dead” producing veteran Eli Jorné, is not likely to convert any new fans. For viewers still slugging through the eighth season of “Fear the Walking Dead,” there are enough horror thrills in the six-episode season of “The Walking Dead: Dead City” to keep you watching and even raise an eyebrow, particularly if you’re already invested in the rich dynamic between...

The Walking Dead: Dead City is coming to AMC next month, and the cable channel has now released a new trailer and key art teasing the series' arrival.

Starring Lauren Cohan, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Jonathan Higginbotham, Mahina Napoleon, Trey Santiago-Hudson, Charlie Solis, and Gaius Charles, the AMC series is the fourth spin-off from The Walking Dead. The story follows Maggie (Cohan) and Negan (Morgan) as they travel through Manhattan together.

Maggie's journey to New York finds her searching for her son, Hershel, but the status of her relationship with Negan remains up in the air.

It's hard to imagine them ever being true friends, but it wouldn't be surprising if they joined forces for this mission to save Hershel.

Maggie and Negan's story continues on The Walking Dead: Dead City and the series will get an earlier launch at Tribeca Festival.

The Knocturnal reports that the first episode will launch this summer ahead of its launch on AMC at an event attended by the cast and creatives.

Twd: Dead City promises a very different sandbox for the characters.

The series has mostly stayed away from the big cities, but Maggie and Negan will be out of their element as they make their way to New York City.

There has been a lot of skepticism about how much story is left to tell for Maggie and Negan.

They hated each other after Negan's actions on The Walking Dead, but they grew to tolerate one another.

There’s more zombies coming to AMC and this time they’re falling from the sky.

Jorné explained what the new show has to offer both loyal fans of The Walking Dead and newcomers.

“It’s The Walking Dead like we’ve never seen it before. We haven’t really lived in a city like this.” Jorné said. “It’s The Walking Dead...

While the very short teaser trailer (embedded above) for the upcoming spin-off The Walking Dead: Dead City simply says the show is “coming soon”, we’ve known for a while now that the show is expected to premiere sometime in June 2023. Now a new, also very short promo for The Walking Dead: Dead City has arrived online – you can check it out at the bottom of this article – and it confirms that this is expected to be a June premiere. We just need AMC to announce a specific date.

Eli Jorné, who has been a writer and co-executive producer on The Walking Dead for multiple seasons, serves as showrunner on The Walking Dead: Dead City, which centers on Maggie and Negan, the characters that have been played by Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan since season 2 and 6 (respectively) of The Walking Dead.

While it's true that "The Walking Dead" has officially wrapped up its 11-season run on AMC, the universe is, in many ways, just beginning. The network had already expanded the franchise with the long-running "Fear the Walking Dead," as well as the relatively short-lived "Walking Dead: World Beyond." So, what's next for the zombie-filled universe? A brand new spin-off that will feature a couple of returning favorites for a brand new adventure. This time, in the Big Apple!

Originally announced as "Isle of the Dead," AMC's next show based on the Image Comics series by Robert Kirkman is titled "Dead City" and will see the return of both Maggie and Negan. Yes, Maggie has a lot of beef with Negan,...

Although an insane number of zombies, or walkers if you prefer, were dispatched over the course of The Walking Dead‘s eleven seasons, it was always other people that were the greatest threat to the group of survivors the show followed. And while that will probably continue to be the case on the upcoming spin-off The Walking Dead: Dead City – which focuses on the characters Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), and is set to reach AMC and AMC+ sometime in June 2023 – we’re also going to be seeing some interesting zombie moments on the new show. In fact, Scott M. Gimple, the Chief Content Officer of the Walking Dead Universe, says The Walking Dead: Dead City will feature a particularly awesome, disgusting, terrifying walker.

The Walking Dead wrapped up its 11 season run back in November and this year brings the eighth and final season of Fear the Walking Dead, but that doesn’t mean the overall franchise is coming to an end. There’s the Rick & Michonne spin-off to look forward to in 2024, the Daryl spin-off (The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon) coming along later this year, and The Walking Dead: Dead City, a spin-off that will follow the characters of Maggie and Negan (played by Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan). It has now been announced that The Walking Dead: Dead City will be reaching AMC and AMC+ sometime in June 2023.

Since that’s just five months away, we should be hearing a specific date soon. Fear the Walking Dead season 8 consists of twelve episodes and the season will be split in two. The season begins airing on May 14th, then after six...

The executive producers behind the new “The Walking Dead” spinoff series “The Walking Dead: Dead City” Scott M. Gimple and Eli Jorné say surviving in New York will bring unique challenges to the veteran walker fighters Maggie and Negan.

AMC is giving viewers an all-new “Walking Dead” journey, this time with Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as its two leads. Joining the entourage is U.S. Marshall Perlie Armstrong, who is played by Gaius Charles.

The series won’t include the Covid-19 pandemic, and Gimple and Jorné say you don’t need to watch any of the “Walking Dead” franchise in order to feel connected to the story — despite Morgan mentioning that “it would help.” In addition, the zombie series is moving its location from the plains of Georgie to the now very lifeless city of New York.
