10 TV Shows Totally In Denial About Being Over

10. The Walking Dead

Whilst The Walking Dead's mainline series is coming to an end next year with its eleventh and final season, the franchise itself is far from over.

Fear the Walking Dead, for example, is about to enter its seventh year, with current showrunner Ian Goldberg stating the show isn't going to end there. The main series is also slated to live on in the form of a movie trilogy starring Rick Grimes, and a sequel series centred on fan favourites Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier.

All of this might excite some fans, but between the long delays of Rick's solo outings and AMC's desire to keep the franchise moving despite its increasing lack of original stories, there can be no denying that The Walking Dead would do best to end with its last season, and have that be the final stop in the franchise.

Unfortunately, though the final season itself seems to have some tricks left up its sleeve, The Walking Dead as an IP looks doomed to repeat itself until it officially loses all meaning.
