Surprisingly, there is enough great storytelling here not only to keep that door open, but actually to inspire a little hope that the next era of “The Walking Dead” might be its best since the flagship’s early days.
For an undead adventure to the isle of Manhattan, Dead City is a trip worth taking for The Walking Dead fans, and kicks off an exciting—if still a bit too familiar—new chapter for our favorite survivors.

Série muito boa. Não prometeu nada e acabou deixando uma boa história. Muitas coisas novas foram apresentados é um início de algo novo no final para Negan e os sobreviventes.
Report
I think Negan is so cool, really since his introduction into the series he has always been so cool and that is my favorite part

“Dead City” isn’t perfect, but after “The Walking Dead: World Beyond,” “Tales of the Walking Dead” and even the long-running “Fear the Walking Dead,” this first of several planned spinoffs following the series finale offers the best reason to reenter this post-apocalyptic world in years.
Too much of the healing and forgiveness achieved in their [Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan's] relationship during The Walking Dead’s final season gets taken back and undone, which makes Dead City feel like an unsatisfying loophole was created around moving their story forward.
Transforming Madison Square Garden into a staging ground for postapocalyptic mayhem is inspired. But what Dead City lacks is a compelling human element. [3 - 23 Jul 2023, p.6]
Stream it, if you’re a Walking Dead completist. But, for everyone else, SKIP IT. The Walking Dead: Dead City feels like the same show whose storytelling ambles like a hungry walker at times, just in a new location.
If you happen to be really tired of the core Walking Dead formula, it’s a long time before you’ll get even a hint of creative rejuvenation — and it really is only a hint, so don’t get your hopes up. If, however, you’re perfectly content to have Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan back on your TV making zombies go squish ... The Walking Dead: Dead City delivers a barely adulterated version of that formula.
Keeping it down to 6 episodes really helped and as someone who nearly didn't watch due to exhaustion of so many Walking Dead shows I was surprised how much I enjoyed this. Still, just an average TV show. Maggie's character over time just gets worse and more annoying. This would be way better with a story focused more on Negan and Maggie perhaps in just one episode or not in the show at all.

While Negan and Maggie are both great characters, it honestly feels exhausting that we are now covering the animosity between them for what is effectively the third time. After the conclusion of Season 11 of TWD where they reached an understanding, the drama between them in this series just feels stale. The Croat as a villain is kinda goofy, and the fact that Maggie only brought Negan with her to get her son back seems incredibly forced when we she should be able to bring the full might of the Commonwealth behind her and storm the place.
Also, apparently this series takes place something like 7 years after the main show ended, which seems like an odd choice to make? Why should I care about the events that happened in this series when it is years upon years away from everything else that has happened in the franchise?
Report
I don’t know what to say. After finishing the main series, I don’t see the point of a spin off with these two characters. I struggled to get past the first few episodes and just couldn’t do it. It’s a shame because individually these characters made sense on the main series but together in a spin off is overkill. It was just more of the same of what we already saw on the main show.
