Last night’s midseason finale for The Walking Dead was a barnburner and perhaps one of the best episodes of the show to date. Now, all eyes are on the midseason premiere.
The Walking Dead season 4, episode 8 marked the halfway point for the latest batch of shows, and AMC decided to split the series into two halves.
The midseason premiere is now set for February 8, 2014. Lead star Andrew Lincoln (Rick Grimes) announced the precise date during last night’s post-show analysis program The Talking Dead.
In addition, Lincoln teased the remaining eight episodes, describing them as “the boldest, bravest and most exciting this show has ever attempted.”
Added series creator Robert Kirkman, “Not only have these people lost Hershel, they lost the prison, but they also lost each other. They’re out on their own, they’re in different groups. There’s going to be a lot going on with these different people as they try to survive in the next half of the season.”
A preview for The Walking Dead season 4’s February premiere shows many of the characters on the run, and in each in a different setting.
Fans are eager to move on from the prison after spending the past season and a half at the dark and dreary location. It is the longest time that the show has spent in a single safe area. With the humans on the move, perhaps they will be going from campsite to campsite until they find a worthy long-term solution. We’d love to see them live in a Woodbury-like location with secure borders and a variety of bright(er) settings.
Read our recap of last night’s episode to refresh yourself on everything that happened during the storyline. In short: It was bloody and non-apologetic.
