With The Walking Dead Season 4 released to home media yesterday, AMC is looking ahead to the walker-filled future of Season 5. Tyreese may be separated from the group at Terminus, but this brief clip from the Season 5 premiere shows him dealing with his own problems as he holes up in a house with walkers shambling outside and something else scuttling behind him.

At Comic-Con, AMC officially announced that The Walking Dead Season 5 will premiere on October 12th, at 9:00pm ET/PT. Similar to past seasons, there are a total of sixteen episodes that will be split into two parts. While specific air dates have not been announced for the second set of eight episodes, AMC has confirmed that the season will resume in February, 2015.

Talking Dead will also make its return on October 12th and our international readers will be happy to know that Fox International Channels is planning to air The Walking Dead Season 5 in over 125 markets within 24 hours of the US broadcast.

Be on the lookout for plenty of Season 5 coverage between now and the first episode premiere. Until then, catch up on our recent coverage by visiting the following links:
