"The Walking Dead": Daryl's 20 Most Epic Saves – Saviors Eat Explosive "Sh*t Sandwich" & More [VIDEO]

While the cast and crew of AMC's The Walking Dead enjoy the response they've been getting for the tenth season, life in the franchise's universe has become a lot like the NFL: neither have off-seasons anymore. With a strong ensemble cast (and a "Big Bad" fronted by Samantha Morton in an award-earning turn as Whisperers leader Alpha) and richly layered writing, showrunner/executive producer Angela Kang did the near-impossible: made the show feel fresh and dangerous again.

With the series set to return to AMC on Sunday, February 23, viewers have already gotten a look at what lies ahead – including Michonne's (Danai Gurira) return, a shirtless Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), a Eugene (Josh McDermitt)/Rosita (Christian Serratos) kiss, and Morton's bloody Alpha (check it out here).

Kang and company offered fans an updated Thanksgiving "easter egg" image to stir up speculation ahead of the show's 2020 return as well as some wrap-up thoughts on the tension and paranoia-filled first-half of the tenth season (check those out here).

Following that was an on-set, in-production look back at this season's first eight episodes – including cast members Morgan and Dan Fogler, co-executive producer/writer Jim Barnes, director/TWD alum Michael Cudlitz, and more.

As we headed into the holiday season, Michonne, Rick, and Negan offered their respective advice for living a better and more rewarding walker-filled life. Then things got very serious with a first-look image from the show's return focusing on Michonne and Virgil (Kevin Carroll), as Gurira prepares to depart the series. But as we prepared to say goodbye to one beloved character, we also got ready to welcome back another with a look at Maggie's (Lauren Cohan) best moments. Walking Dead chief content officer Scott M. Gimple then offered up some clues as to what lies ahead for our heroes.

Now we're jumping into our "Mr. Peabody Wayback Machine" with AMC to look at what they're calling Daryl's (Norman Reedus) "most epic saves" on the series so far. To be fair, that's a pretty lofty bar to set

Here's a look back at the most recent teaser for the series' mideseason return – one that finds our heroes not just fighting for revenge. More than ever, they're fighting for their futures…

When AMC's The Walking Dead returns for its second-half of season 10, our group of survivors are trapped… some in the confines of a cave filled with walkers… others, in a spiral of suspicion and grief — all orchestrated at the hand of Alpha, who continues to prove the Whisperers are always watching and one step ahead of the communities. Through this conflict and all they've lost, a few still hold onto hope, especially Eugene, who believes the mysterious voice he spoke with on the radio may lead to their world getting bigger once again.

But with the Whisperer War upon them, the collective communities must come together and possibly sacrifice all they have to find a way to silence the Whispers once and for all. Otherwise, Alpha will ensure they face a certain doom.

We didn't mince words over how impressed we were with season opener "Lines We Crossed" (check out our review here). Then we had Morton, Ryan Hurst, and Thora Birch raising the bar even higher with "We Are the End of the World" (check out our review here), – offering up some Whisperers backstory.

"Ghosts" elevated the paranoia as Melissa McBride continues delivering an award-winning performance (that review's here) – while "Silence the Whisperers" proved once again why it's "In Cudlitz, We Trust" (review here).

"What It Always Is" had a now-free Negan beginning his redemption arc (???) while Alpha raised the stakes against our survivors (review here).

"Bonds" had Negan being tested, Carol and Daryl possibly making matters worse for the community by "picking up" a Whisperer, and Eugene reaching out… and getting a response.

"Open Your Eyes" (review here) saw our theory about Siddiq (Avi Nash) completely, totally, and tragically put to rest. That brought us to midseason finale "The World Before" (reviewed here), as the drumbeats of war grew louder.
