A Look Ahead at the Rest of “Fear the Walking Dead” Season One!
Last night AMC aired the debut episode of “Fear the Walking Dead,” their zombie spinoff of “The Walking Dead” that I thought started off with a bang (unfortunately, the season episode isn’t as riveting).
The inaugural season will only be 6 episodes, all of which air each and every Sunday leading up to the season premiere of “The Walking Dead”.
We have a look ahead at next week’s “Fear the Walking Dead,” as well as a breakdown of each of the following episodes all the way up to the finale!
Episode 1.02 – So Close, Yet So Far
Madison tries to keep Nick from withdrawal; Travis sets out to locate his son before Los Angeles falls.
Episode 1.03 – The Dog
After they escape a riot, Travis, Liza and Chris seek refuge with the Salazars; Madison defends her home.
Episode 1.04 – Not Fade Away
Madison and Travis see different sides of the National Guard’s occupation in their neighborhood; the family tries to adapt to the new world.
Episode 1.05 – Cobalt
The National Guard’s plan for the neighborhood is revealed; Travis and Madison make a difficult decision.
Episode 1.06 – The Good Man
As civil unrest grows, and the dead take over, Travis and Madison try to devise ways to protect their families.

Himesh Patel (Tenet, Don’t Look Up) will star opposite Danielle Deadwyler (The Woman in the Yard) in Ryan Coogler’s reboot of “The X-Files“, which has wrapped filming on the pilot.
Patel confirmed the news in a chat with The Direct, while reiterating that he and Deadwyler play new characters.
“I don’t want to say anything that’s going to get me disappeared. Needless to say, myself and Danielle Deadwyler are playing completely new characters, and we just wrapped on the pilot. If we get to do more… we’ll see where we go from there,” Patel said.
That last sentence is noteworthy, as Patel is reminding that Hulu has only ordered the pilot so far. A full series order has yet to be greenlit.
It’s a good reminder, considering that Hulu also ordered a pilot for the “Buffy: New Sunnydale” reboot that was filmed and delivered earlier this year, only for the streamer to send shockwaves when it opted not to move forward with the series.
As for “The X-Files” pilot, Sinners filmmaker Ryan Coogler writes and directs the pilot. Jennifer Yale (“The Copenhagen Test”) serves as showrunner.
Himesh Patel and Danielle Deadwyler play two highly decorated but vastly different FBI agents who form an unlikely bond when they are assigned to a long-shuttered division devoted to cases involving unexplained phenomena.
Patel and Deadwyler previously co-starred together on “Station Eleven.”
Other actors who have signed on for guest roles include Amy Madigan, Steve Buscemi, Ben Foster, Devery Jacobs, Lochlyn Munro, Tantoo Cardinal, Joel D. Montgrand, and Sofia Grace Clifton.
“The X-Files” originally ran for nine seasons between 1993 and 2002, with two additional seasons arriving in 2016 and 2018. 218 episodes were produced in total, along with two feature films: 1998’s The X-Files: Fight the Future and 2008’s The X-Files: I Want to Believe.
