Expect more news very soon! #FearTheWalkingDead New spinoff of The Walking Dead, Set in LA, filming will be done in Vancouver. “Fear The Walking Dead” Promo Will Air After “The Walking Dead” Season FinaleBy MrDisgusting on March 26, 2015@bradmiska The fifth season of The Walking Dead” comes to an end Sunday, and AMC is going to force you to watch “Talking Dead” in order to catch the premiere of the spinoff’s promo. On the heels of news that AMC has picked up two seasons of “The Walking Dead” companion series, AMC will share the first ever look at the pilot presentation of the tentatively titled “Fear The Walking Dead” during “Talking Dead” this coming Sunday at 10:30pm EST. In the series, Kim Dickens stars as Miranda and Cliff Curtis as Sean. AMC ordered two seasons of a spin-off series to be executive produced by Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Greg Nicotero and David Alpert. AMC president Charles Collier has stated that the series will explore “what was going on in other parts of the zombie apocalypse, and what it looked like as the world really did ‘turn.’” “Fear The Walking Dead” will be set in Los Angeles and focused on new characters and storylines. The show’s first season will consist of six one-hour episodes and premiere on AMC in late summer. The show’s second season will air in 2016. The series will star Cliff Curtis (“Missing,” “Gang Related”), Kim Dickens (Gone Girl, “Sons of Anarchy”), Frank Dillane (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince) and Alycia Debnam Carey (Into the Storm).

Dogbyte Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Are people still watching that show? Let me guess they're still holed up somewhere not solving the problem and running around in circles fighting groups of people that for some reason want to kill them.

GLASSJAW Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 they won't air at the same time. one will have their season finale and the other will have their season premiere. yeah, true. I bet the execs at AMC are messing their pants over Mad Men ending and significant chunk of AMC's audience going with it. Better get something in the can, and quick. although the Seth Rogan/Evan Goldberg "Preacher" show might find an audience, whenever that comes out.

TOMapleLaughs Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Good idea, although the thought of watching the zombie apocalypse in yet another setting and cast of when-will-they-die characters is starting to be accompanied with 'meh'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agoork Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Check out izombie tv show. They've only shown 2 episodes so far, but its surprisingly good. Very different than the typical zombie apocalypse type show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 The new show will actually take place the moment the virus begins to spread. Be prepared for mass chaos rather than bleak landscapes. The show will also be as violent, or more so considering the sheer number of people turning and attacking in cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Kane Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm excited for the spinoff but I have some reservations. Spinoffs general don't work out to well but I'm hoping this is different. Will they call Walkers "Walkers" or something else? The phrase was coined my Morgan in episode one of season one so I wonder how they will work it into the story (if at all).
