Trivia / The Walking Dead S11E11 "Rogue Element"

• Directed by Cast Member: Michael Cudlitz, who played the late Abraham Ford, returns to direct this episode. Josh McDermitt later noted that this was particularly special since this episode focuses mostly on him meaning he could spend much more time with his old friend.
• Reality Subtext: Eugene notes that there was a time when everyone hoped the zombie outbreak would blow over in a few weeks. This episode aired roughly two years to the week the COVID-19 pandemic began, and after the world had similarly hoped that the pandemic would’ve ended in a few weeks.
