Netflix fans are hooked on a new TV show that they’re calling one of the ‘best series’ they’ve seen in years.
If you’re looking for your next binge, this post-apocalyptic series could be just what you need.
The six-episode series has earned rave reviews online, with one viewer enthusiastically saying: “When we say cinema, this is what we’re talking about.”
Another shares: “Binged it all in one day, it was very well written.”
While a third person declares: “Awesome, some of the best content I’ve seen in years.”
Somebody else comments: “This show is beyond phenomenal!”
Set after the conclusion of the original Walking Dead series, this follow-up show follows Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne Grimes (Danai Gurira), who are kept apart by an unstoppable power as they try to find each other.
The Walking Dead wrapped up its 11-season run in 2022, leaving several unanswered questions.
Among the most pressing was the fate of Rick, who vanished under mysterious circumstances in season nine, and Michonne, who set off to search for him in season 10.
This follow-up delves into their long-awaited reunion, exploring how they reconnect after years apart and their fight to return home.
It also introduces several new characters, including Major General Beale, Warrant Officer Thorne, and others associated with the CRM (Civic Republic Military).
Although the show has rave reviews from fans of The Walking Dead franchise, The Ones Who Live was billed as a limited series, which means it’s uncertain whether there will be any future seasons.
In an interview with The Direct, franchise Chief Content Officer Scott M. Gimple – who served as a showrunner on the program – addressed Rick and Michonne’s future.
While he reiterated that the show was billed as limited, he teased that further episodes weren’t entirely off the table.
“I mean, the plan was to keep it limited. Not necessarily never to see those characters again, but to keep it limited. But I always say, you never know,” he said.
“There’s so many… I’ve been very careful to not say, ‘Oh, that’ll never happen,’ because it does. So you know, there are possibilities. And there’s possibilities of all sorts of strange iterations of shows with those characters and with other characters. So you know, I think it’s entirely possible.”
