![]() Kublek lied to Hope and told her that the two communities were destroyed by “columns of empties,” which is The World Beyond-speak for mega-hordes of zombies. In the season premiere, for instance, Elizabeth Kublek reiterates that she obliterated two arms of the CRM: The Campus Colony, a community of 10,000, and Omaha, home to 100,000 people. You can remain apprised of the relevant bits without having to suffer through thinly drawn, inconsistent characters, terrible storylines, and all the goddamn whining. ![]() Therefore, I will not be “recapping” The World Beyond each week - because, again, what happens to these characters is irrelevant - but I will provide fans of The Walking Dead this service: I will track any of the revelations that may connect to Rick Grimes and the larger The Walking Dead universe. There won’t be a third season, and if we’re lucky, none of the characters will survive this season, because ultimately the CRM must win this battle and continue to exist because it’s expected to be the antagonizing force in the theoretical Rick Grimes movie. They exist to provide context for a Rick Grimes movie that may or may not ever happen. It’s almost impossible to stress how little any of this matters, because the characters don’t matter. Along the way, they also learn that the CRM is a nefarious entity, mostly because Elizabeth Kublek’s (Ormond) daughter, Huck ( The Americans’Īnnet Mahendru) infiltrated the group of teenagers and posed as their friend. The first season is almost entirely devoted to watching these petulant teenagers trek from Nebraska to a CRM research facility in New York, where the father of two of the characters - Iris and Hope - is a scientist experimenting on walkers in an effort to find a cure for the zombie virus. This show is bad and yet somehow managed to snag Julia Ormond as one of the leads. That military helicopter was operated by an outfit called the Civic Military Republic (CRM), and The World Beyond purports to tell its story through the perspective of a group of whiny, insufferable teenagers with little acting ability who are given scripts that somehow fail to live up even to their marginal talents. The Walking Dead: The World Beyond, another spin-off of The Walking Dead, is a limited two-season series that exists for only one reason: To sketch in some background concerning the whereabouts of Rick Grimes, who was picked up from Alexandria by a military helicopter in the ninth season of The Walking Dead and hasn’t been seen since.
