The Spinoff Does Not Have A Title Yet
The first spinoff from The Walking Dead, which is currently in its fifth season, was released in 2015 and it is called Fear the Walking Dead. However, even though it is a known fact that the upcoming spinoff is scheduled to be released in 2020, it does not have a title yet and as a result, some critics while speaking of its debut refer to it as an ‘expected debut’ or an ‘untitled debut’. This has however not stopped or hindered the show’s creation.
Same Temporal Setting
When news of a new spinoff got to the audience, there were speculations on what time-line the story will run. Some fans were more interested in a spin-off that leaned towards being historical while on the other end of the divide are fans who are more interested in a futuristic story. None of them are getting what they want as the timeline of The Walking Dead new spinoff is going to take place in the same timeline as The Walking Dead. But the way this story would differ from the major events that fans are already used to is in the geographical setting as this will feature characters that have lived in a different community but have had to deal with the walking dead in their own way.
Target Audience
The Walking Dead is mostly watched by people between the ages of 18 and 49 but The Walking Dead new spinoff is believed to be aimed at appealing to the tastes of mostly teenagers. This has posed as a concern from some critics who wonder if it will become the Dawson Creek of the franchise
Cross Over Episodes
Despite it being a second spinoff, The Walking Dead new spinoff is expected to have crossover episodes where the lives of characters from the main show and the spinoff will intersect at a point. The character Rick Grimes who was played by Andrew Lincoln made an exit from The Walking Dead in its ninth season, he was the leader of one of the human communities.
When the actor left the show, it was believed that the character moved to another community, the new community he moved to is believed to be the one that this spinoff has as its geographical setting. As a result of this, his expected return in the upcoming spinoff will be the biggest crossover event of the show.
