As I’ve been telling people for a while now, it’s a great time to be a Walking Dead fan. This franchise is expanding faster than ever right now, and I can’t wait to see what’s next! Isle of the Dead may not be coming for a while at this point, however, in the meantime, catch the final season of The Walking Dead on Sunday nights on AMC, or watch each episode a week early by subscribing to AMC+!
