The Walking Dead: Here's How It Could End (If It Ever Ends)

AMC's The Walking Dead was envisioned as a never-ending zombie movie, and so far, the series has lived up to its billing with six-and-a-half seasons and zero indication that it will ever slow down.

Curing zombieism is part of almost every zombie property, but aside from a quick trip to the CDC in Season 1 and Eugene's (Josh McDermitt) bluff about working on a cure, The Walking Dead is more preoccupied with sadism and pain than it is preventative medical measures.

Aside from total frickin' mayhem and carnage, there's no reason that someone out there wouldn't be working on a cure in a heavily protected underground medical facility.

[...] because Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) group can't stay in one place too long because of all the madmen in this apocalyptic world, Rick could stumble on some smarty-pants discovering a cure, thus ending the series because of a magic serum.

Rick and pals take refuge in a blown-out Ikea, the group can't find their way out -- have you tried to get out of an Ikea?

After chucking the last of the canned Swedish meatballs at the zombies, everyone is corned in the dinette section and devoured on top of economical furniture and countless hex screwdrivers.

More likely, the zombies are like a plague that just dies off after a while, eventually becoming so worn and immobile that they succumb to the elements just like every other simple organism out there.

Following a particularly harsh winter, Rick and his friends peek their heads out of the gopher hole they lived in since December and see a wasteland of thawing zombie parts.

If AMC has its way, The Walking Dead will never end, and Season 65 will see the group find a new secure place to call home until an evil but slightly charismatic villain shows up... and you know the rest.
