The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live brings back Andrew Lincoln's Rick Grimes and Danai Gurira's Michonne, two of the main characters from the main show, as they embark on an epic quest to reunite after the former's disappearance from the main show.
To finally get back to each other, they'll have to contend with the brutal Civil Republic Military, the changeable motives of the third returning character Jadis, and the hordes of walking dead that stand in their way.
Originally intended as a movie series, and then titled The Walking Dead: Rick & Michonne, The Ones Who Live is now the final title of the show, which debuts on Saturday, February 25.

Can you watch The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live in the UK?
UK fans of The Walking Dead probably know what I'm going to say here: no, so far there's been no confirmed way to watch the show on any streaming service or broadcasters.
That's not a surprise since Dead City and Daryl Dixon also haven't made their way to the UK, and TWD fans are now missing on several series' worth of zombie action.
If this changes, we'll update the article, but it's been almost a year since Dead CIty came out and that's still unavailable. So you may have to look for alternative ways to watch...
