Frequently Asked Questions

How many seasons of The Walking Dead are there?

The main series ran for 11 seasons from 2010 to 2022 on AMC. The franchise continues through multiple spinoffs including Dead City (Negan and Maggie), Daryl Dixon (set in France), and The Ones Who Live (Rick and Michonne).

Is Daryl Dixon in the comics?

No — Daryl Dixon does not exist in Robert Kirkman's comic series. He was created specifically for the TV show and became such a fan favorite that he outlasted the main character Rick Grimes, eventually getting his own spinoff series.

How does The Walking Dead end?

The series finale sees the communities united after defeating the Commonwealth's corrupt governor. Rick and Michonne are revealed to be alive in a post-credits scene (setting up their spinoff), while the other characters settle into rebuilding civilization.
