The Walking Dead officially returns [1] to AMC on Oct. 22 and will kick off season eight [2] with the show's 100th episode. Just like the last five seasons, the eighth season will consist of 16 episodes [3], as well as 16 episodes of Talking Dead, the show's live aftershow. During this year's epic Comic-Con in San Diego, AMC debuted a crazy new trailer that has us freaking out [4] over Carl (Chandler Riggs) and Negan's (Jeffrey Dean) budding relationship [5]. If this is any indication of what season eight is going to be like, we're in for a wild ride.
