For 'The Walking Dead' faithful, it's the start of what will be a drama-filled remainder of the show. With eight episodes remaining before the iconic AMC series calls curtains down, the show will see copious doses of emotions from fans as it hints at one massive ending. While there are spinoffs in the works, the original show will end this year.

Relationships have been a key part of the show, and ahead of the show's premiere on October 2, all eyes are on Norman Reedus and Lauren Ridloff's Daryl and Connie, who are touted to get together. The good news is there is a chance of 'Donnie' happening, and showrunner Angela Kang, while previewing the series in an interview with TV Line, also shed light on what the future for the two characters looks like. "The thing we felt we absolutely had to do was to make sure that we have some level of closure for each character’s story,” the EP said. “Whatever form that takes, we wanted to have some sense of where they land emotionally… so if you saw nothing else after this, you’d still have a sense that things are done."

The looming pressure is cresting towards a day of reckoning for all. Will the sum of their individual journeys cumulate into one, or divide them forever."
