How many seasons of The Walking Dead are there?

The Walking Dead is one of the longest-running TV shows of this generation. Just how many seasons are there?

It goes without saying that The Walking Dead is one of the biggest TV shows of the past decade. Based on the comic book series of the same name, the show has been a tentpole of the TV calendar for many years, generating a huge amount of buzz every time it returned for a new season.

While it hasn’t had the same high viewing figures in recent years, it remains one of the biggest shows in the world – which is incredible when you consider how long it has been on for. Moreover, it’s been on the minds of plenty of people this year because its series finale would bring it to a close once and for all.

With The Walking Dead‘s run now over, now might be the perfect time to start a binge-watch if you haven’t already. If you’re interested in doing just that and would like to know how many seasons there are, you’ve come to the right place.

How many seasons of The Walking Dead are there?

The Walking Dead consists of 11 seasons. The show debuted on AMC back in 2010, running for a remarkable 12 years, with its eleventh and final season airing on the cable network over the course of a year. There are 177 episodes overall.

If you live in the US, you can watch the first ten seasons on Netflix (with the eleventh likely due to arrive in the near-future). Fans in the UK can watch all 11 seasons on Disney Plus via its Star service.

The Walking Dead‘s conclusion is undoubtedly a huge moment for the franchise, but you needn’t worry if you are a fan, because there are multiple new spinoff shows in the works that will bring back some of TWD‘s most beloved characters. There is also long-running spinoff series Fear The Walking Dead, as well as other shows set in the TWD Universe to enjoy.
