The Walking Dead Special to Air Ahead of Penultimate Episode

By Cameron Bonomolo

Before The Walking Dead ends, the cast and crew will look back at the beginning. AMC Networks is set to air The Walking Dead: The Making of the Final Season, an hour-long retrospective revealing what went into making the show's expanded eleventh and final season. The special, which will be broadcast on AMC and stream on AMC+, is to be followed by the "Family" penultimate episode of the series — on Sunday, November 13th. One week later, the November 20th series finale of The Walking Dead, titled "Rest in Peace," will premiere simultaneously on AMC and AMC+ so fans can experience the end together.

AMC describes the making-of special: "Cast and crew reflect on the series and how they worked together to bring the show to its conclusion."

The Walking Dead: The Making of the Final Season is streaming on AMC+ and premieres on AMC at 5 pm PT / 8 pm ET on Sunday, November 13th. The penultimate episode of the series, "Family," follows at 6 pm PT / 9 pm ET, with a live episode of post-show Talking Dead to air immediately after a new Interview With the Vampire at 8:14 pm PT / 11:14 pm ET.

The network is commemorating the show's final episode with The Walking Dead series finale live event taking place November 20th in Los Angeles. Featuring an exclusive look at props, costumes, and star-studded red carpet arrivals from the TWD Finale Event, the celebration will be available to stream exclusively for AMC+ subscribers. The night will conclude with a live taping of a super-sized episode of Talking Dead, where special guests will join host Chris Hardwick for a look at the Walking Dead spinoff shows premiering in 2023.
