The Walking Dead Season 6: What We Know So Far

The Walking Dead brought Season 5 to a bloody and disastrous 90-minute end earlier this year, the show was rewarded with its biggest audience to date. Everyone wanted to watch the ever-present rift between Rick�s crew and the Alexandria citizens grow even larger, and that is absolutely what happened.

Though we�re still a ways off from sitting down and taking in all the guts and glory that Season 6 has to offer, we�re bringing together everything we know about the season so far. And without further ado, let�s smear walker gunk all over ourselves and head into the wild.�

The Walking Dead for Season 6 last October, just before Season 5 got underway. But in the nine months since that happened, the network hasn�t put forth an official release date. Speculation puts Sunday, October 11, as the best possible start time for Season 6, given the companion series Fear the Walking Dead is starting its six-episode Season 1 in August.�

More so than any other series on TV beyond maybe

Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead is excellent at introducing new characters to its audience, some meant to stick around for a long time, with others only given a small purpose before meeting a grisly demise. Season 6 will be no different, as the show enters one of the more populous story arcs from the comic series.�

As seen above in Dr. Dre mode from the upcoming biopic Straight Outta Compton, actor Corey Hawkins was cast to play the dread-headed fan favorite supply runner Heath (whom you can see in character here). We�ve seen casting calls for other characters, though no announcements have been made on who will be playing them. There�s a code-named married couple, comprised of the non-jaded Kirk, who realizes his good nature may have to change in order to continue surviving, and his wife Hilda, who was only described as attractive and strong. There�s a female psychologist character, going by the name Allison, that�s been described as smart, artful and charming, with some thinking that she might serve as a potential love interest for Daryl or Heath. Then there�s a character being called Tucker that is a hardworking guy who values fairness, and he�s expected to pop up early on in the season. Hopefully we�ll have more news about who these characters really are in the near future, as well as announcements for even more of them.�

Walking Dead fans are used to at this point. We said goodbye to Bob, Beth, Tyreese, Noah, that bitch Dawn, and Gareth and his Terminus crew. As for the Alexandria group, the casualties included Deanna�s husband Reg and son Aiden, and Jessie�s husband Pete. (Also, R.I.P. Buttons the horse.) We might catch Pete haunting Rick�s nightmares when Season 6 starts, but we�ve probably seen the last of everyone else.�
