After 11 seasons and 177 episodes, the AMC TV series The Walking Dead officially came to an end last night – and longtime viewers got a special treat during the series finale’s commercial breaks. In ads for Autodesk, Deloitte, DoorDash, Mntn, and Ring that were produced by Ryan Reynolds’ company Maximum Effort and AMC Networks’ Content Room, the products are hyped by zombified versions of long-lost Walking Dead characters Rodney (dead since season 9), Milton (dead since season 3), Gareth (dead since season 5), and Andrea (also dead since season 3). Actors Joe Ando Hirsh, Dallas Roberts, Andrew West, and Laurie Holden reprised their roles for these commercials.
