Just a few days after the premiere of the second season, AMC has announced that it has renewed their spinoff series “Fear the Walking Dead” for a third season. The premiere episode was seen by 8.8 million viewers.

Charlie Collier, president of AMC, SundanceTV and AMC Studios, excitedly stated, “What Dave Erickson and Robert Kirkman have invented in ‘Fear The Walking Dead’ is to be applauded. Watching Los Angeles crumble through the eyes of our characters and seeing each make decisions and try to figure out the rules of their new world – it’s fresh, eerie and compelling and we’re all in for the ride. As Victor Strand observed, ‘The only way to survive a mad world is to embrace the madness.’ We thank the millions of fans for embracing this mad world and look forward to sailing far into the future.

In Season 2 of “Fear the Walking Dead”, the group aboard the Abigail is unaware of the true breadth and depth of the apocalypse that surrounds them; they assume there is still a chance that some city, state, or nation might be unaffected — some place that the Infection has not reached. But as Operation Cobalt goes into full effect, the military bombs the Southland to cleanse it of the Infected, driving the Dead toward the sea.

As Madison (Kim Dickens), Travis (Cliff Curtis), Daniel (Ruben Blades), and their grieving families head for ports unknown, they will discover that the water may be no safer than land.
