Watch The Walking Dead Season 5 Premiere Online

Watch The Walking Dead Season 5 premiere online streaming

AMC’s The Walking Dead finally debuts tonight to commence Season 5 and take a deep dive into Terminus. Actually AMC already spilled those beans by releasing the first four minutes of the premiere episode ‘No Sanctuary’ online to watch live free online streaming ahead of the full episode 1 tonight. I personally deliberately skipped it to soak in the full TWD Season 5 experience with virgin eyes.

Before The Walking Dead Season 5 premiere, let’s recap what got us to the beginning of this season. The fourth season began with life at the prison turning into a fairy tale with Rick becoming a farmer and peace enveloping a safe haven community. By mid-season the group had been fractured thanks to the Governor’s idiocy, and the back half of the season splintered Rick’s group into several small factions that roamed the Atlanta countryside surviving one day at a time.


A common theme in those latter Season 4 episodes were railroad tracks and signs for Terminus, a mysterious destination at the end of the tracks where “those who arrive, survive.” Toward the end of the season two different groups arrived, and both discovered quickly that the initial open reception was a trap.

While Rick and the majority of his group finally reunited as prisoners in a train car, Carol, Tyreese and Judith are still on their way to Terminus. At some point they’ll reunite with the group, but will it be during The Walking Dead Season 5 episode 1 premiere? We’ll find out soon enough.

A big question mark entering this season is the whereabouts of Beth. She was in a car that sped off from Daryl after a walker attack and according to the Season 5 premiere trailers, will end up in the company of a policewoman who is none too kind.

Tonight’s The Walking Dead: Season 5 premiere episode 501 ‘No Sanctuary’ premieres tonight on TV on AMC at 9/8c in high definition (HD). AMC offers free online streaming versions of The Walking Dead episodes (censored for language) several days after they air at the official AMC website for a limited time that can be viewed on a computer, mobile phone, tablet/iPad or any Internet enabled and connected device. It’s the next best thing to watching free and live.

Another option to watch TWD online is to purchase standard or high definition versions of each newly aired episode very early the following morning after they air from here exclusively at Amazon.com. All past episodes of The Walking Dead are available there to watch as well.

Update: ‘No Sanctuary’ is now available to watch online free streaming at the official AMC website here through November 13, 2014.
