First reviews for The Walking Dead: Dead City praise the performances of the series' leads while criticizing the story and new characters.

The Walking Dead: Dead City reviews reveal a series held up by good performances from its lead cast members but dragged down by its story and additional characters. The first new spinoff of The Walking Dead since the end of the flagship series, The Walking Dead: Dead City features Maggie and Negan traveling from Virginia to Manhattan to rescue Maggie's son Hershel from The Croat .

Dean Morgan is also back as Negan Smith, and is arguably better than ever. He can't help but dominate nearly every scene he's in, even if the dialogue is patently worse than the first few seasons of the original series. Dead City ultimately feels like his story, using The Croat and his Manhattan operation as an analogue to Negan's worst self.

What The Walking Dead: Dead City Reviews Say About The Show The Walking Dead: Dead City's focus on Maggie and Negan makes word of Cohan and Morgan's strong performances an important quality of the series. The show is set to feature not only Maggie's mission to find Hershel but also Negan's past as a Savior since The Croat used to be one of Negan's underlings.
