Although it's not a premiere or a finale, The Walking Dead Episode 704 will feature enough content to be extended to an 85-minute runtime.
EW reports that The Walking Dead Episode 704 has been extended to an 85-minute runtime. The episode will air November 13th on AMC and looks to focus on Negan's unsettling visit to Alexandria, which should tap into some key moments from the comic book series. A brief synopsis for the episode is below, courtesy of SpoilerTV, and we'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated on further details regarding The Walking Dead Season 7.
The Walking Dead Episode 704 – "Service" synopsis (via SpoilerTV): "The remaining members of the group try to keep it together in Alexandria; they receive a sobering visit."
"Up until this point, the survivors have lived through conflicts... Disease, hunger, scores of the undead, tragedy, betrayal, and unthinkable loss. Through this, they've become formidable. Powerful. Unstoppable.
To start Season 7, that power is taken away. They had found safety and stability. They had created a home. They thought the world was theirs. They thought they knew the world. They were wrong.
The first half of Season 7 sees the group fractured, broken, bereaved, and picking up the pieces while living under the thumb of oppression. Negan will have successfully brought the survivors under his control, brutally convincing them to live under his rules with a deadly and horrific example of what happens if they don’t.
Other characters are unaware of what’s happened, but have become separated from the group either by incident or choice -- they will learn that they can’t escape this new turn of their world, either. This half season is about these characters starting over.
The overall theme of the season is beginning again. The world isn’t what they thought it was. It’s bigger and it’s even more dangerous."
