Tonight’s new episode of Fear the Walking Dead will mark the end of the spinoff series’ freshman season.
It’s been a bumpy road — both for the character and the viewers — to get to this point. While we loved the first few episodes of Fear the Walking Dead, the show slowed down a bit in its back half.
Over the past couple of episodes the show has narrowed its focus in on a core group of characters rather than the general threat of the apocalypse. Whereas the first three episodes showed how a city could be disrupted by an outbreak of walkers, the back half has shown the lead characters going up against the military and their own family members.
Walkers have nearly disappeared from the show. Will they return tonight? With Operation Cobalt supposedly going into effect, it seems like a good possibility! The walkers should be able to easily get past the fences and cause havoc in the safe zone.
A clip from Fear TWD episode 6 depicts Liza at the hospital, asking permission to bring Christopher… and Travis… to a military base. Liza seems to think she’ll be able to tear Travis away from Madison and her kids, but we seriously doubt it. Wouldn’t he rather be with his current partner instead of his former? We think Liza should leave on her own and let Christopher stay with Travis and Madison.
Speaking of our predictions for the finale, we’re hoping to see Strand run into Madison and Travis. They’re probably going to feel uncomfortable seeing their son working with a stranger who broke them out of jail (or will they be grateful?).
Fear the Walking Dead 1×06 “The Good Man,” airs Sunday, October 4 at 9 p.m. eastern/pacific on AMC. Return to Hypable after the episode airs for our thoughts on the finale!
