"The Walking Dead: Dead City" Revives Franchise for Undead Fans

"The Walking Dead: Dead City" is the latest spinoff of the long-running franchise, following Maggie and Negan as they venture into zombie-infested Manhattan to rescue Maggie's son from a new group of baddies. While the show offers some fun new zombie-killing gimmicks and a more focused narrative, it still leans heavily on tried-and-true "Walking Dead" patterns and features uninteresting side characters. The show's most interesting ideas only gain traction in the final episodes, and the climax sets up a twisty setup for season two. "Dead City" premieres on AMC+ on June 18th.
