THE FINAL EPISODE!! The Walking Dead Season 11: Episode 24 "Rest In Peace" Reaction 

We LOVED the episode and the ending seeing the teaser for Rick & Michonne. Yes we wanted to see them return home, we know it wasn't going to work as to why AMC changed the ending, but it was just something we've wanted to see for the ending the series. Nothing wrong being disappointed in something we care so much about, everyone has their opinion! We're stoked for getting all the reunions in the Spin-offs!!! Can't wait for the Spin-offs in 2023! Amazing end to an amazing journey for all! Stay tuned for our Finale and Season 11 Reviews!

I don’t care what anyone says I really enjoyed this final episode I was surprised that I cried just goes to show you really care about these characters and you have been on a 11 Seasons journey with them major props to the actors and crew and writers for giving this wonderful show a great send off

NObody has mentioned the easter egg about Gabriel. Making up for the church. Beautifully done. It's totally relevant. Maggie showing mercy like Rick did to Negan. Lots of things that have come full circle.

Being a fan for 12 years, I wasn’t sure if they could make me happy or satisfied with this ending. But I actually am, and I’m so pumped for the new stories to come!

I cried so much this episode man. Everyone crying over Luke like that, I lost it. Rosita, what can I say, that was so incredibly sad. The music was perfect. The orchestra as well being used throughout the episode was fantastic!

Cried so much during this. Love the full circle for Gabriel in particular

Carol took Hornsby's job, Darryl mentioned it. Also, I got the impression that Darryl wasn't leaving to specifically find Rick & Michonne but to explore and said if he hears anything while he was "out there" he'll find them or something to that effect.

I personally think the finale was perfect. One of the best. They did everything they needed to.

Judith: I was scared you'd leave. Daryl: I'm right here.... *leaves.

Disagree guys--love how they handled Rick and Michonne...story began with Rick and w e end with Rick being back. EXTREMELY happy to see them again.

I think that Jadis drew the pictures on Rick's cell phone... She probably saw michone and Judith wearing Rick's hat prior to her joining the CRM..

Rosita dying with Eugene by her side And her telling Eugene I’m glad it was you at the end that about broke me

i thought i wanted rick/michonne to come back in present-time and reunite with everyone, but looks like they are saving those powerful reunions for when they finally cross paths, and it'll be even more powerful. Beyond satisfying ending for me, they closed everything nicely and now Rick is the main protagonist once again of the story. This is a 10/10 finale from me honestly

I’m gonna rewatch the whole show

Daryl says before he gives her the blood that he has the universal blood and Merle used to make him sell it as a kid for money.

Rosita and Eugene, and Maggie and Negan’s scenes were so damn good

Real men cry 😭 Love you guys and I want to thank you for all the awesome reaction vids to this amazing show, I know there will be reactions to spin-offs but this one will always be the best!! Thank you both xoxox

Well, Daryl has 0 negative blood, so he could be a donor to basically everyone. It was explained pretty smoothly

In the episode they said Carol had taken on Hornsby's job and made it her own.

I like to think this time Negan stayed in touch with Lydia after he left

Idk why ppl keep saying they wish Rick and michonne to come back for the finale lol it’s literally impossible and wouldn’t make any sense but everyone has they’re on opinions lol but I think that ending was fine tbh

We DID find out what Carol is doing.... she took over Hornby's job!

Waited for this! I cried the whole time, can’t believe it’s finally over, absolutely beautiful episode. I’m satisfied. I started watching the walking dead when i was 14 yrs old ten years ago and now I’m 25. This show has been everything to me such a huge part of my life and it was awesome to experience so much of it with you guys! Can’t wait for more when the spinoffs come (:

U guys notice Daryl giving Judith blood was like back when Rick gave blood to Carl, an when the walker hit glass with a rock, that goes back to when they were at the shopping center in begining episodes.. they went back to a lot of scenes in this episode. Pamela almost took carols death in comic. It’s amazing how they did this episode! Loved it!

You did get to see what job carol was doing. Daryl literally said to her you took hornsby’s job and made it your own

Daryl is the one who told Rick there not the walking dead back in season 5 so they sorta went full circle when he said it at the end

Yes, it’s sad that Daryl did the very thing that Judith feared he would do - leave.

Before Daryl gave Judith blood he stated his blood goes with anyone and Merle used to make him sell it for money

I had the exact same reaction initially about not getting the reunion we wanted....but after having more time to let it soak in, I'm fine with it. There's still a lot of story out there and it seems like they're saving it for another time. Plus we did still get to see them with new footage. The episode as a whole was fantastic in my opinion. From the action, emotion, score, dialogue, the effects, and you could tell they really poured their hearts into this finale. This just gets me even more excited for the spin-offs and excited to see your reactions!

Abraham will be so proud of Eugene 😂

rosita died with a smile on her face :( she complete her job as a mother and can rest in peace 😔

The intro music was a live orchestra recording for the last episode.

The finale was great and hey I’m just glad we were able to see richonne period.

This is the reaction I've been looking forward to the most. I started watching you guys after the final comic issue review and you've been my go-to TWD channel ever since. Excited to see what's next, for both the series and this channel. Thank you guys for all the hard work and good memories

Omfg guys! What an amazing reaction video to end on and what a truly amazing finale. I was blown away by the mirroring of the past. Darryl giving Judith blood after being shot which is a throwback to Rick giving Carl blood in s2 after he was shot, also Daryl blocking the door in the hospital how Shane did for Rick at the start, loved those 2 parts. I love how we started in the hospital and came full circle to a hospital with Judith and then to top it off the Rick and Michonne scene at the end! I'm so excited for what's to come but so sad to see the end of an era! 2010 to 2022 12 years 177 episodes and 1 obsession and we now finally have the new spin off that once again focuses on the Great Rick Grimes I can't wait and I hope you guys will continue to do great work still xx

You guys should have not been expecting Rick and Michonne to be back in Alexandria at the end. I went in expecting nothing to come with Rick and Michonne and was pleasantly surprised and it ended really well

I've been waiting for this video since the episode ended, love you guys

Daryl says to carol when they’re on the bench, that it’s good that “you’re taking hornsebys job and making it your own”

First show,game,movie ever to make me actually ball my eyes out rosita got me. Not only was she my grandfather favorite before he passed away but she reminded me of my girl the way she said i love you to eugene an the look she gave him broke me

Who would ever of thought that Eugene would outlive Rosita & Abraham like whaaat that’s insane! Eugene definitely isn’t the same person he was when we saw him as a coward in the beginning when he debuted with Rosita & Abraham as a trio in season 4 .

The only thing that could have made the ending with Carol & Daryl better would be if when he said "I love you" that she replied "I love you too, Pookie" That would have been amazing!

It was a very good farewell to the main show. I can’t wait for the spin offs next year. And the actor for Rosita wanted to die because she wanted to mess with our feelings for a last time. That’s what she said during talking dead. And the best part of the series finale was rick and michonne.

The finale had me crying on and off all day (I watched it the next day). I just had such a connection to these characters since I was a teenager, and to know this cornerstone of my life officially ended was like experiencing the death of a close friend.

Chandler Riggs was in Alexandria. He's behind Maggie when she's sat on the bench. He's in his own clothes BUT he's wearing a hat as a disguise

One of the best finales

Rick actually said... we are the walking dead.

I really loved the finale and how they wrapped up "The Walking Dead" so much. The series was always about our ever growing family trying to stay alive and find themselves a safe home to live. And they did that in the end by saving The Commonwealth, having our guys taking on key roles in it's future running, and finally giving Carol, Ezekiel, Judith, R.J., Eugene, Gabriel, Aaron, Gracie, Lydia, Elijah, Jerry, Nabila, Connie, Kelly, Magna, Yumiko, Tomi, Annie, Mercer, Princess, Max, and Coco/Rosie a safe place to live out their days in their forever homes. Well also setting up the departures of Daryl | Maggie and Negan for their spin-off's as well as the reuniting of Rick & Michonne in their spin-off. In a interview Angela Kang said they choose to have one major death instead of endless deaths because it felt more sad and emotional rather then making it just be for shock and awe sake. They wanted the characters to all to feel one last major death of their family. Fun fact Christian Serratos who played Rosita Espinosa volunteered herself to Angela to be the major death, that was actually intended for another character ( Carol ? ) because she felt she wanted final closer for Rosita and from TWD Universe. For anyone who hasn't yet watched the "Talking Dead" after show I highly suggest you checkout the hour and a half special ( with 40 cast and crew ) asap as there were so many little inside nuggets of info and cast reunion moments you don't want to miss having seen.

Last scene when Daryl rides away and music is absolutely emotional🥹

Duuuude! You guys do not pay attention! The helicopter speaker said "Consigneer Grimes" he'd became a officer at CRM and then Morgan's voice said exactly what Rick said to him (Morgan) at season 3 "you cannot scape the living"

They are showing us how michonne found his stuff

Absolutely. Phenomenal. So many shows fail their finale and TWD didn’t. Even with some nitpicks. You win play can’t ask for better than that. Bravo!

Gabriel decided to risk his lives to let people in which is a redemption from when he didn’t let people in his church and they died

Thank you guys I’ve loved your series feels like we have all been on that journey together.

Did you notice the weapon Rick had was the SAME one that Silas had at the end of World Beyond?

french fans here ;) thanks for the reaction i really enjoyed it

In my opinion the episode was fantastic.. The commonwealth arc was wrapped up nicely, along with the deaths and the characters we might not see again. Many nice little callbacks.. Like in the hospital with Daryl and Jude. The Variant with the Rock! Gabe stepping up and going to open the gates to save the people from being eaten alive (unlike his congregation). Daryl getting the speech was perfect.. Like you said, the way it was said and the speech itself was very fitting to his character. But also if you look back at S5 when Rick gives the "we are the walking dead" speech, Daryl responds with "we ain't them" So I think it was great they gave the line to him. The Rick and Michonne dialogue and montage was a really nice addition. And the new Rick and Michonne shots were good, it gave us Rick and patches some holes 10x13 left. As much as it's sad we can't get more, I completely understand.. They don't want to run the risk of tarnishing the spinoff. Danai and Andy also said they didn't want to overshadow everything else. So it is what it is.. Not everyone's going to like it or like the episode, but that's fine! Everyone's entitled to an opinion. I thought it was great overall, and I look forward to the future of TWD and your reactions!

When Rosita said ‘because I’m still right here’ that was heartbreaking

"Mom's gonna find dad and we're gonna be together, we're all gonna be together" 🥺 (Daryl's face) 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

They wrapped this up so damn good. RIP Rosita

You missed Daryl saying about the blood transfusion that he has the blood you can give anyone same as me. Easter egg recalling daddy as Judith says and Carl being shot. Rick did all that for Carl when he got shot when he was small.

Did you know that Chandler Riggs aka Carl was in The final scene at the Hilltop when Maggie was telling Daryl and Carol, "I want to talk about the future. He was in the background as a Hilltopper farming

The scene where Rosita told Eugene that she got bit was the best piece of acting that I have seen from Christian Serratos. Simply amazing job!

I laughed at myself during that blood transfusion scene because I can watch walkers tear someone apart but I had to look away when I saw that needle going into Daryl’s arm 😅

Thank you for the content over the years NocBro Nation! Gonna be weird not seeing you guys react to the main show anymore, but at least we got some more spin offs on the way.

Danai and Andy were very adamant about not coming back to save the day when they were asked to come for the finale. They wanted their part to be minor so people can focus on the characters that have been there since they left.

I really enjoyed this finale and I can’t wait for the spin-off’s next year.

I love petty carol. At least we don't have to worry about who gets your house. 🤣 reminded me of when she was antagonizing Jessie's husband in Alexandria 'and I want my dish back. Clean.'... petty carol is the best carol.

Wouldn’t make sense for Rick and michonne to show up plus that just undermines everything they’ve set up

You guys are great. This was a really fun reaction. As to your disappointment about Rick & Michone not being back with their old friends/family? That's just too easy. There's no way that was ever gonna happen. Hopefully, by the end of their yes, MINI-series (confirmed, unless it's a huge hit or something), they will find their way home and that's when we get our reunion.

27:52 when Daryl started talking I knew it was coming, so when he said "we ain't the walking dead" I was VERY happy! I posted my reaction on RU-vid, which is something I never do!

the part with the walker smashing the window with the rock was a throwback to season 1 when the group were in the store and they had to escape in the truck

I am actually glad they didn't show Rick and Michonne return to Alexandria, even though I initially hoped they would. They have saved that for the Rick and Michonne show next year and that makes it so much better to look forward to. Well as long as it gets shown in the UK anyway!. I just loved the final episode. Such exciting scenes, sad scenes, hard to watch scenes, but bittersweet peaceful scenes to end with. Somehow life seems a bit empty now.........

I dont know just be grateful that Andrew Lincoln Andrew Danai Gurira made An appearance in the last episode, This is what happens when you write a story line in youre head you are bound to end up disappointed, i for one loved This last episode what a rollercoaster of emotions, Thank You Walking Dead for last 12yrs❤

"Can we talk about this?" 😂😂

The flippin relevance of Cult Of Personality, being playin in the episode, when it was a Master Mind move. Fit perfectly.

Carol took hornsby’s job Daryl said

25:05 Josh's "come on man" hahaha I feel it. That was a rough moment

I felt Eugene’s pain when he was talking to Rosita. It reminded me of the last conversation I had with my mother before she passed.

It did say what Carol was doing. Daryl said "you took Hornsby's job and made it your own" or something like that. So she's obviously settled for a Government job.

Absolutely stellar finale. Nitpicks here and there but who cares when it’s otherwise so good??? 99% of shows bungle the finale. TWD nailed it. WHAT A RIDE!

The writers did all they could do. If they give us a reunion then we know how their story concludes, this way we got them in the finale, just what we wanted but only now we have a promise of a story. Hats of to the writers because this could have been a GOT or Seinfeld situation and the did right by us the fans

We all grew up on this series, and just to see it end was finally waking up from a dream. Great reaction Jerrel and Josh! Fun fact, Chandler Riggs who plays Carl, played a Hilltop resident in this episode. Andrew Lincoln and Danai both didn’t want to play a part in that episode because they didn’t want to take away the plot.

Apparently, Andrew and Danai didn’t want Rick and Michonne to just turn up and save the day. They felt it would undermine the hard work all of the other actors/writers etc had been doing on the show in the final seasons since they left, they were very adamant about it. Also, if they showed up, it would negate the need for the spin-off, as they would already be back. Kinda defeats the point! I love that we got them and it gave us some interesting tidbits of what happened and what’s to come. I can’t wait for the spin-offs, I just hope Scott GIMPle doesn’t ruin them like he has Fear and the other spin-offs.

I been watching this since I was 12 and I can’t express how much this show means to me…whole story and Rick as character is also like hero to me…missing this show so much but still happy we have spin offs and soon we have our hero Rick back…also reunion between Rick and Daryl is one of things I’m waiting most for.

Gutted you guys missed the Mearl reference during the blood transfusion

The Main Show started with a legend and ended with a legend and a new beginning/new era

Carol took lance’s job

when i see ricks memory of the dead it makes me cry

Your guys’ faces every time you talk about Daryl ending up in France 🇫🇷 is hilarious 😂 You both have the exact same head shake I think we all have when we think about that fact...lmao 😊

I think Daryl is going out in the world as a ranger (like his job has been for basically every community) but not necessarily just to look for Rick, he said “if I find them when I’m out there I’ll bring them back” I took that as meaning he’s aware they’re out there but it’s not his mission - we’ll see!

Personally, I felt this was a pretty good finale that wrapped up not only the major storyline but also a majority of the character arcs. Yes, some were left open-ended due to the spin-offs but I think they did a good enough job to still at least give us some sense of closure.

Rosita Espinosa forever❤ what a death for the finale!

I think the variant Walker with the knife got onto the vehicle that crashed prior to Mercer being arrested

Wow! This episode was filled with emotions and emotional because of events that took place in the finale episode and most importantly getting that happy ending.

You guys did a really good job with your videos. I really enjoyed them. You guys are great. Thanks

I loved that Lance Hornsby was shown! That was one of my hopes for the finale!

What happen to Negan’s wife? Did she have the baby? What happen to Oceanside?

Guys, they got a full orchestra to score the entire episode with Bear. It was gorgeous throughout. And idk maybe it’s just me but I swear the voice from the helicopter sounded like Giancarlo Esposito.

Thank you for doing these reactions! It's been nice going through this journey with you guys!

Ok so my predictions: Now we know that Rick was working as a grunt at an isolated CRM location, maybe the CRM home base city. He was going to escape by taking that boat but got caught & tossed his stuff in the boat. I am 100% sure that the phone with its drawing was not made by rick but by Jadis. Jadis is the artists on the show and knew what Judith looked like at that point in her life. That means that Rick & Jadis talk & at some point she gives him the phone. We know from World Beyond show that Jadis was at the CRM base city several times & probably has visited Rick more than once. That message on the phone in Mandarin?? I bet is the name of the city Rick is located. By writing the name in a foreign language no one would know what it says and take it away from Rick. Remember the CRM are super secretive and its possible Rick did not even know the City's name until the point he starts to try his escapes. Maybe Jadis is the one who tells Rick the city name. I also suspect that the happy ending we see for the main show will not last plot wise. At some point the CRM will get around to seeing what happened with the commonwealth and maybe it, or Hilltop/Alexandria are attacked and people taken. THs is what leads Maggie and Negan to go on a search for Hershel & his wife who are among the taken.
