The six months of waiting for answers has officially begun. The entire future of The Walking Dead is on a knife-edge, with the fate of one unlucky character hanging in the balance. The season finale cliffhanger didn't please everyone, but once the mystery is revealed, it could shape the rest of the entire show.

Fans are used to seeing a lot of questions answered in finales, though this one offered up a mountain of extra talking points to add to the pile. The direction of the show is completely unknown, and its next move could be crucial.

If you've recovered, if your heart-rate has returned to normal and you're ready to digest what just happened, here are 10 huge questions everyone's asking following The Walking Dead Season 6 finale.


10. Can Carol 'Come Back' From Her Situation?

It's easy to lose the side-stories under the sheer weight of Negan's arrival, but Carol and Morgan's few scenes together were powerful. Their storylines have gradually intertwined to the point where they're at a bizarrely similar stage.

At the beginning of Season 6, Carol was a confident killer and Morgan was the peace-bringer. The finale saw him firing shots to save her, and Carol was left crushed under the weight of her guilt. It's interesting that their wildly different stances have culminated in a strange compromise for both characters.

Carol has seemingly lost the will to live, but can she recover? Can she be rehabilitated to a point where she can enjoy her life once again? In Morgan's words, can she 'come back'?
