	Author	Review
United States	Matt Fowler IGN	"For those who've waited years for answers, 'The Ones Who Live' is equal parts sad, sinister, and satisfying."	POS
United States	Jessica Liese Variety	"For fans who are still deeply invested in Rick and Michonne’s story, the series is likely to deliver the closure they’ve been craving (...) After the successful storytelling and well-established worlds of “Dead City” and “Daryl Dixon”, it feels even less necessary."	NEU
Canada	Sarah Moran Screen Rant	"As one of the original show’s biggest lingering (and arguably most compelling) plot points, to say it’s good to finally get some answers is an understatement."	POS
United States	Michel Ghanem The Wrap	"At its best, it's a powerhouse showcase for just how good Lincoln and Gurira are in these roles. But do not expect a radical reinvention of the franchise"	NEU
United States	Saloni Gajjar AV Club	"Please, let 'The Walking Dead' franchise die already (...) 'The Walking Dead's' latest spin-off clings to the allure of 'Richonne' but has little to offer beyond that"	NEG
United States	Trent Moore Paste Magazine	"It’s more like a reunion to finally bring fans some closure and answers. Which sometimes, that’s more than enough."	POS
United States	Kaiya Shunyata rogerebert.com	“The Ones Who Live” suffers from its position in the bloated universe these characters find themselves in, and despite the beautiful work from its two main actors, it never quite reaches its full potential"	NEU
United States	Noah Levine Bloody Disgusting	"Rick Grimes returns in exceptional, emotional premiere (...) Rating: ★★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"As much as I enjoy seeing Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira reunite on screen, I cannot help but feel it is a few years too late for this show"	NEG
United States	Brian Lowry CNN	"While there's an initial kick in seeing the charismatic stars reunited, the life quickly drains from that promise, again resembling a franchise that simply doesn't know when to quit"	NEG
Canada	Katie Doll CBR	"[It] perfectly balances the old and new eras of 'The Walking Dead' franchise, grounded in the forbidden love between Rick and Michonne"	POS
United Kingdom	David Opie Digital Spy	"[It] doesn't live up to expectations. It's not bad per se, and there are moments of greatness, but it's not quite the grand comeback we were hoping for (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"It's always interesting to see the societies that crop up in the face of this zombie apocalypse. But [its] heart is Rick and Michonne, and we want to see the hopeful tone of their relationship cuts through the blood and grimness"	POS
United States	Chase Hutchinson Collider	"'The Ones Who Live' struggles to find its direction and lacks emotional depth, often resorting to the same repetitive motions of the past without offering anything new or impactful."	NEG
United States	Melanie McFarland Salon	"While 'The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live' isn't exactly review proof, if you've been pining away for these two, nothing anyone says will stop you from sucking the marrow out of this carcass"	POS
United States	Erin Maxwell Village Voice	"While the acting and world-building is still top notch, only the devoted will follow this latest chapter, which offers little to newbies"	NEU
United States	Laura Bradley The Daily Beast	"[Rick Grimes] is just as grounded as always, making each and every one of Rick's competing impulses legible on his weathered, terrified face"	POS
