Dead City Season 2: New Threats and Alliances

The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 2 premieres May 4, 2025, on AMC and AMC+, continuing to follow Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as they face new dangers in post-apocalyptic Manhattan. This season sees Negan under the control of the Dama, while Maggie is forced to work with New Babylon to safeguard her son. Mahina Napoleon reprises her role as Ginny, whose character experiences significant growth and finds her voice. Critics note the addition of more eccentric side characters and a broader narrative scope, though issues with forced plot developments and reliance on the Maggie-Negan dynamic persist. The season is comprised of eight weekly episodes, available via AMC+, Prime Video, and Hulu + Live TV. Reviews are mixed, with praise for world-building and character chemistry, but continued criticism of repetitive themes.
