Get Ready for The Walking Dead's Mind-Blowing Original Ending!
The Walking Dead Universe: A Never-Ending Saga
The Walking Dead TV show may have come to a satisfying conclusion, but the universe it has created is far from over. With multiple spin-offs in the works and two new series renewed for second seasons, The Walking Dead franchise is AMC's biggest moneymaker. Despite the series finale wrapping up loose ends and providing closure for the main characters, there was an original ending that was shot but ultimately scrapped.
A Different Path From the Comics
Unlike the Walking Dead comic books, where the story ends with the death of Rick Grimes and a time jump to his son Carl as an adult, the TV show took a different route. The finale of the show featured the downfall of Pamela Milton and the Commonwealth, the death of Rosita, and Daryl leaving the group to find Rick. The inclusion of Rick and Michonne in the epilogue gave fans hope for their reunion, but it felt more like a setup for their spin-off series rather than a definitive ending.
The Original Ending: A More Definitive Conclusion
The original ending of The Walking Dead finale would have provided a more satisfying and conclusive ending to the series. It featured an older RJ and Judith leading survivors back to their communities, continuing the legacy of their parents. The scene ended with RJ identifying himself as Rick Grimes over the radio, mirroring the pilot episode. This original ending would have tied up loose ends, given fans a glimpse into the future, and provided a sense of closure that the official ending lacked.
