The original series ended in 2022 after 11 seasons but soon returned from the grave with an expansion strategy to keep the undead apocalypse ticking over: various fan-favourite characters would headline their own six-part series.
Maggie realises Negan has history with the gang and needs his insider knowledge and ratbag cunning to mount a rescue. For his part, Negan seems to be on borrowed time.
Dead City: even if you never kept up with latter seasons of The Walking Dead, the thought of Maggie teaming up with Negan is a great hook.
Perhaps they should have subtitled Dead City it Rotten Apple. Maggie was the farm girl who fell for Steven Yeun's sweet Glenn, their love a rare bright spot in The Walking Dead's benighted world.
