Need to catch up on the adventures of Rick and friends before The Walking Dead Season 7 premieres in October? If so, Netflix has you covered.

The Walking Dead Season 6 will be available on Netflix beginning September 15th, joining the show's previously released five seasons on the streaming network.

The announcement was made in an official video from Netflix (see below, via our friends at TheWalkingDead.com). The September 15th Netflix debut of season 6 will give fans a little over one month to catch up on the series before season 7 premieres on Sunday, October 23rd at 9:00pm EST on AMC.

The Walking Dead Season 6 is also now available on Blu-ray / DVD from Anchor Bay Entertainment, and it will be released in a special collector's edition set this November. To learn more about those releases, visit:
