It's official!  "The Walking Dead" will return on Sunday, Oct. 23rd at 9pm!

For those of you who haven't caught up, or worse, haven't started the series "The Walking Dead" - STOP READING NOW...

**SPOILERS AHEAD**

The network AMC has set the premiere date and even revealed the first trailer for the next season of “The Walking Dead”!  Of course the big question on everybody's mind is: Which character met his or her demise at the end of new villain Negan’s bat?!

In the trailer, it does show Negan, but doesn’t hint at who he killed in the season-six finale.

It also gives a first look at King Ezekiel, a fan-favorite character of the comic books on which the series is based... so I guess that will have to do for now.

Here's the trailer that just dropped at Comic-Con 2016.

WARNING: Sensitive and graphic material for some audiences

Ahhhh!  Chris Hardwick's gonna have to save me a spot on his couch on "The Talking Dead" after every episode just so I can calm down.  This season looks insane!
