‘Walker’ Fans Are in Their Feels Following Premature Series Finale

Jared Padalecki’s last month, and the series finale officially aired.

Many people took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and Reddit after the series finale aired. Plenty of fans were frustrated, like Padalecki, over the cancellation, pointing out that there was still so much more story to tell. Others were thankful to the cast and crew and were happy that Walker happened in the first place. Overall, though, the fandom is as emotional as ever.
