***TUNE-IN ALERT***

GEAR UP FOR THE HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED SEASON SEVEN PREMIERE WITH AMC'S RETROSPECTIVE SPECIAL, "THE WALKING DEAD: JOURNEY SO FAR," AIRING SUNDAY, OCTOBER 16 AT 9:00 P.M. ET/PT "THE WALKING DEAD" RETURNS ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23 AT 9:00 P.M. ET/PT

In preparation for the highly-anticipated Season 7 premiere of "The Walking Dead," AMC will air a two-hour retrospective, "The Walking Dead: Journey So Far," on Sunday, October 16 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. During the special, fans can get up close and personal with the cast as they tell the stories of their characters from the moment they were introduced to where they were when last season ended. Clips from the most pivotal moments in series history will be intercut between cast and executive producer interviews.

Season by season, from the moment Rick wakes up in the hospital (as told by Andrew Lincoln), all the way to the excruciating first swing of Negan's bat (told by Jeffery Dean Morgan and others in the lineup), the story of "The Walking Dead" will be told by those who have lived it. "The Walking Dead: Journey So Far" gives viewers who have never seen an episode of "The Walking Dead" a chance to get all caught up on the plot, characters, locations, and unique terminology of the series as well as providing fans who've never missed a moment with fresh interviews with the series' producers and their favorite actors as part of an exciting refresher course that will further whet their appetite for the new season.

The first half of Season 7 sees the group fractured, broken, bereaved, and picking up the pieces while living under the thumb of oppression. Negan will have successfully brought the survivors under his will, brutally convincing them to live under his rules with a deadly and horrific example of what happens if they don't.

"The Walking Dead" is executive produced by Robert Kirkman, Showrunner Scott M. Gimple, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Greg Nicotero and Tom Luse.
