We don’t have to wonder if Fear the Walking Dead will be cancelled or renewed for a ninth season since AMC has already announced that season eight is the end. Could the show or surviving characters return someday? Stay tuned.

A post-apocalyptic horror drama series, the Fear the Walking Dead TV show stars Lennie James, Kim Dickens, Rubén Blades, Colman Domingo, Danay García, Jenna Elfman, Karen David, Austin Amelio, Christine Evangelista, and Zoey Merchant. The show’s story begins in Los Angeles with a dysfunctional, blended family searching for a safe haven in a horrifying new reality. The eighth season begins after Morgan (James) and Madison’s (Dickens) hopes to rescue Mo from PADRE do not go as planned. Morgan, Madison, and the others they brought to the island are living under PADRE’s cynical rule. Demoralized and dejected, they realize that the task of reigniting belief in a better world rests with the person Morgan and Madison set out to rescue in the first place — Morgan’s daughter, Mo (Merchant).
