Season 7 of “The Walking Dead” hasn’t even premiered yet but AMC has already renewed the series for an eighth season. Not that anyone is surprised of course.

AMC president Charlie Collier released a statement about the season 6 cliffhanger and the renewal:

“Eeny, meeny, miney, more. What a joy to partner with Robert Kirkman, Scott Gimple and some of the hardest-working people in television to bring The Walking Dead to the fans.”

During the 8th season, “The Walking Dead” will hit 100 episodes, a coveted landmark achievement for any scripted series.

Season 7 of The Walking Dead premieres tonight at 9 p.m. EST on AMC. Fans will finally have an answer to who Lucille chooses and my guess is – no one will be happy by the end of the episode.
