Walking Dead's 'Ones Who Live' Line Had A Much Darker Meaning
24/05/2023
The Walking Dead's finale used the line "we're the ones who live" as a hopeful mantra, but it originally had a much darker meaning. In season 5, Rick used the phrase to illustrate how his group survived because they were willing to do whatever was necessary. This interpretation may become relevant again in the upcoming spinoff featuring Rick and Michonne. Facing off against the powerful CRM organization, Rick may have to return to his ruthless ways in order to ensure his own survival. The "ones who live" line sets up a potential conflict between Rick and the CRM.
