Check out the first footage from the spin-off as we also break down the significance of the new name.
The Walking DeadRick and Michonne showwill not, in fact, be titledThe Walking Dead: Rick & Michonne.
Nor will it be titledThe Walking Dead: Summit(its temporary production moniker).

“I lost someone years ago.
And then things changed.
And I found out that he’s alive.”

Next, we see flashes of that lost love, Rick Grimes, doing some very violent things.
(Watch the teaser below.)
But the history of the line goes much further back.
“We’re the ones who live.”
“We’re still alive, Rick,” Michonne said.
“So much has happened.
So much that we shouldn’t have lived through.
In spite of it, or maybe because of it, we did.
We’re still here.
The two of us.
We’re still standing and we’re going to keep standing.
So what do we do with that?
How do we make that mean something?
We’re the ones who get things done.
We’re the ones who live.”
“We’re here!
you’ve got the option to smile.
We made it… we can make it.
We’re the ones who live.”
And that is what is forged in this hell that we’ve lived through together.
And the triumphant thing is that we forever lived through each other and beyond.
That, to me, seems the message of the whole thing."
This explains why it is the show title for the most anticipatedWalking Deadspin-off entry yet.
And now, we are the ones who must wait.
