The Walking Dead Updates
FTWD SEASON 3
RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCED
AMC has announced that season 3 of Fear the Walking Dead will hit TV screens on Sunday, June 4 with back-to-back episodes. The season’s first half will consist of eight episodes, with the first half finale taking place over back-to-back episodes airing on July 9. That’s eight episodes worth of zombie mayhem packed into just six weeks. And it’s only a couple months away.
The Walking Dead wrapped up season 7 with a brutal showdown between Negan and Rick in Alexandria, setting up even more warfare to come in season 8. Given everything that happened in season 7, from the harrowing premiere to tons of character introductions and weeks of sometimes-confounding build-up to the bonkers last 20 minutes of the season finale, some fans may be forgiven if they’re feeling a little strung-out and in need of a break. But for those who just can’t get enough Walking Dead, and simply can’t wait to plunge back into that grim, death-filled world, there’s more around the corner, as the zombie apocalypse will be absent from AMC for only a brief time.
We have already learned that season 3 will be the last hurrah for Fear the Walking Dead show runner David Erickson who is moving on to develop other projects at AMC. Erickson co-created the show along with Robert Kirkman and has been the show runner from the beginning, so his departure will represent a pretty big shakeup.
