One more show won’t make it to see the new year. David Michael Latt, a producer on the Z Nation TV show, has revealed that the zombie drama series has been cancelled. The final episode will air Friday, December 28th.
A Syfy zombie apocalypse horror comedy-drama, Z Nation stars Kellita Smith, DJ Qualls, Keith Allan, Anastasia Baranova, Russell Hodgkinson, Nat Zang, Sydney Viengluang, Ramona Young, Natalie Jongjaroenlarp, and Grace Phipps. After a zombie virus infects the United States, a ragtag gang of everyday people bands together to end it.
In a video posted last night, Latt broke the news of the cancellation to his followers. “This is not the end of anything,” he said. “This is just the beginning of a lot of things.”

While Z Nation is coming to a close, Netflix has already ordered a prequel series. Black Summer is described this way: “A mother, torn from her daughter 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.” Netflix has ordered eight episodes.
What do you think? Do you like the Z Nation TV show? Would you have watched a sixth season on Syfy?
I love this show, very entertaining and would have watched many more seasons
Yes. I would have watched a sixth season. Especially as Murphy is ingesting the “recipe” for the cure that Sun Mei found. This would have opened the show to a new frame of cultural questioning: What do we do now? Zombie shows aren’t just zombie shows. Apocalypse fiction and its prevalence nowadays is due to a -probably justified- perception that the world is going to s**t. And fiction works help us address these anxieties. That’s great. Catharsis. Fantastic. Now, what? What “after” is there? No shows -as far as I know- are addressing that question. It’s all about the catastrophe,… Read more »
This show is much better than The Walking Dead! I would look forward to watching or recording for later viewing.!!! Very entertaining, funny, great cast, excellent film colors, great idea about the dead talkers!!!!Run the series again!repeat. I’ll watch again! Yes, Netflix should take over.
I hope another network picks it up or they make a movie to tie up the loose ends
It’s sucks to end this show witout a real end, please 1 more season, can we sign a petition ?
I call Bull Shi*! I’ll stop watching anything on SYFY
Guttered that there won’t be a season 6. Can’t another network pick it up, please? We have been left on a cliffhanger. There is so much more they can do with this show! I will miss ALL the characters SO much. Please, please, please don’t take this away from us yet!
I love this Tv show, it is my favourite and I couldn’t and can’t stop watching it. I hope and pray to god that they will make season 6. This tv show was like my mini world where I could be alone and watch what I loved and be alone.
Why they always cancel the good shoes I really hope they make another season or Netflix picks up season 6 Netflix has a new show coming out that’s called black summer but it isn’t about z nation but I hope they pick up the rest of z nation that would be awesome and would make them a killing
I agree they always cancel the best shows. And I hope too that they pick up the rest of it.
Black Summer description sounds like the beginning of Van Helsing. We don’t need it. We need Roberta and Murphy and Doc and 10K and the rest of the gang. At least let us find out how Roberta can help or cure everyone.
I’m heartbroken that Z Nation is coming to an end!!! I loved the show, loved the actors, and it’s one of the few shows that help me get thru this crazy world we REALLY live in. 🙁
Please bring out a season 6 of Z Nation I love this series one of my favourites, 10*
i love this show i wish you would not have taken it off z nation was very entertaining i loved watching that and then vanhelsing . i watched on friday nights and there is nothing else on. i normally dont watch syfy channel just started watching because of these shows. please bring back
This show was a breath of fresh air when it came to zombie shows. The series finale left more story to tell. I hope you create a surprise episide set in the future that ties up all the loose ends. It must include the cheese wheel!
Ok this season lacked some of the excitement of past seasons but hey give them a break. You love the characters and give the writers a chance to improve. At least give the fans a good ending. Please fans of this series bombard Netflix. Get the cancellation voided and keep the show on the air.
Yes I would have watched a sixth season. It is stupid that reality shows go on for 20 seasons yet quality shows like this get cancelled bc a syfy company executive feels like it. Lately syfy has been trigger happy with cancelling shows .i.e…z nation and ghost wars. I stopped watching network shows abc, CBS fox for this very reason…
