On last night’s episode, “The Obliged,” it was revealed that the Twitter statement was a bit of an expectations-setting con. But during last week’s episode, the show announced via Twitter that Grimes had only two episodes left - making his expiration date November 4th.
So, naturally, fans assumed that, true to form, he’d be kicking the bucket on November 25th on the midseason finale.
RICK THE WALKING DEAD TWITTEELR SERIES
It’s been widely known that this would be the last season for longtime series star Andrew Lincoln. The show has taken glee in delivering false character deaths ( Glenn and The Great Dumpster Fakeout of 2015), going apocalyptically over the top with real character deaths ( Glenn and The Great Lucille Debacle of 2016), and then slow-playing every other major event to the point where fans can reliably tune out for an entire season, knowing that the one big moment the show has been promising all season will undoubtedly arrive in the final frames of a midseason finale.Īll of this has made the upcoming death of lead character Rick Grimes such an unusual case. One of the biggest gripes about AMC’s The Walking Dead over the past few years has been that it doesn’t really play fair with its viewers. Warning: Spoilers for The Walking Dead season 9, episode 4 below.
