Six episodes may be too few for us to feel empathy for every side character. I found many of the side characters pretty forgettable the show tended to push them aside in favor of focusing on Maggie and Negan. If Dead City isn’t renewed for more episodes, I’ll be very disappointed. We end up with finishing the first season with more questions than we had going in, so the endgame isn’t as satisfying as I’d have liked.

The series is solid throughout all six episodes, although I was disappointed by the finale. The Walking Dead: Dead City ends on a so-so note These chats, which occur pretty much every episode, don’t necessarily move their story forward, but it’s nice to get a deeper understanding of what makes them tick. They hate each other, but they can still talk. In the show’s quieter moments, I really enjoyed some of the conversations between Maggie and Negan.
The Croat gives off classic James Bond villain vibes, although his backstory is a little predictable. Unhinged and unpredictable, the Croat is a great villain, but he doesn’t get enough screentime we also don’t spend enough time with Maggie’s son Hershel. His one liners add some great dark comedy, and we’re treated to one of the most brutal scenes in the character’s history in Episode 2. A few months back, Jeffrey Dean Morgan teased that Negan would fall back on old habits, and that certainly happens.
Negan fans in particular are going to absolutely love this series. The show refuses to let go of the history between the two characters, with numerous scenes referencing the infamous moment Negan killed her husband Glenn (Steven Yeun) in The Walking Dead season 7. Sure, they hate each other, but they continuously find themselves in situations where they can help each other. Maggie and Negan’s relationship was one of the most interesting elements of the original show’s final season. The story itself is quite straightforward, but executed really well.

The show does a great job at creating obstacles and threats at every elevation whether the characters are flying across zip lines up high, running through the city center, or trudging through the sewers, there’s danger everywhere.
The towering skyscrapers and narrow roads teeming with walkers and human threats creates a claustrophobic, foreboding atmosphere. Dead City breathes life into The Walking Dead franchiseĭead City takes us beyond the samey forests of Georgia - a place The Walking Dead spent the majority of its time - to Manhattan, one of the beating hearts of the modern world.
