Nick Romano Entertainment Weekly 07/22/2019
After a slow start to a season that quickly fell back into old traps, this all feels too little, too late. Go to Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files 09/23/2019
4/10
None of the characters are very convincing in why they're acting so foolishly beyond a means to balance the scales. Go to Full Review Nick Hogan Tell-Tale TV 09/03/2019
4.5/5
It's hard to say why sometimes that Fear the Walking Dead is such a satisfying and exciting show, but "Is Anybody Out There?" showcases that element really well. Go to Full Review Sonya Iryna Culturess 08/12/2019
When Strand and Al were desperately trying to land the plane... it was a cheer-worthy moment. It was the reunions and other moments that really made the episode special, though. Go to Full Review Mansoor Mithaiwala Screen Rant 07/22/2019
["Is Anybody Out There?"] made zero sense, and it ended up being quite anticlimactic because of the writing (and story) issues. Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Uproxx 07/22/2019
The inane plot contrivances were stacked on top of each other, and the lapses in logic were plentiful. And yet, the episode still mostly worked, thanks to the happy ending the characters receive. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
