AMC has created quite the franchise around The Walking Dead series and its spinoffs. Fans of the long-running series were disappointed that it concluded with season 11 in 2022. Viewers of The Walking Dead universe long for more stories set in the same world. Will any spinoffs feature additional seasons in 2024?

AMC released the highly anticipated Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) spinoff The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live in February 2024. The limited series focused on the couple’s epic love story and their part in taking down the CRM (Civic Republic Military). Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh) was also featured in the series, and a surprise cross-over from Father Gabriel (Seth Gilliam), who was once involved with Jadis. Overall, the series gave fans everything they wanted, including the reunion between Rick and Michonne and their children Judith (Cailey Fleming) and RJ (Antony Azor).
