Syfy Has Officially Pulled the Plug on “Z Nation” After Five Seasons
One week before the Season 5 finale of “Z Nation,“ we learned tonight, Syfy has cancelled the zombie series. In other words, the Season 5 finale will be the *series* finale.
Asylum CEO/series executive producer David Michael Latt announced in a video tonight, “We were not renewed for a Season 6. We’re stopping at Season 5. We’re very sad. We’re also really grateful [for] the opportunities that we had. This is not the end of anything. This is just the beginning of a lot of things. We had a great time. We had a great time with Syfy.”
The final episode, “The End of Everything,” airs Friday night, December 28th.
Starting in Spring 2019, it’s worth noting here, new Netflix series “Black Summer” hails from “Z Nation” co-creator/executive producer Karl Schaefer and the Syfy zombie apocalypse drama’s co-executive producer, John Hyams. Jaime King will star in the series as a mother, torn from her daughter, who embarks upon a harrowing journey, stopping at nothing to find her. Thrust alongside a small group of American refugees, she must brave a hostile new world and make brutal decisions during the most deadly summer of a zombie apocalypse.

The Ghostbusters franchise returns to the world of animation with brand new Netflix series “Ghostbusters: Night Shift,” and the official logo has been revealed this weekend.
Expect “Ghostbusters: Night Shift” to clock in on Netflix in 2027!
Netflix previews, “Ghostbusters: Night Shift, a series from Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation based on the beloved Ghostbusters franchise, will debut exclusively on Netflix in 2027.
“The new series marks the next chapter in the franchise’s ghoul-catching legacy, bringing supernatural comedy and paranormal action back to animation.”
The upcoming animated series from Netflix will be executive produced by Ben Hibon, Elliott Kalan, Jason Reitman, Gil Kenan, Amie Karp, and Dan Aykroyd.
Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman, director of the original Ghostbusters features, and Kenan co-wrote the franchise’s most recent installments, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Frozen Empire.
“This isn’t the first time the Ghostbusters universe has gone animated,” Netflix reminds in their press release today. “The 1980s and ’90s saw The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters take over the small screen. For now, you can rest assured: If there’s something strange in your neighborhood, a Ghostbuster will be on the job — even if it’s after hours.”
