A sign of the apocalypse has begun. Reports of a rapidly changing world for unknown reasons underscore this gritty drama, a prequel to AMC's uber-popular "Walking Dead." The story is told through the lens of high school guidance counselor Madison Clark. The widowed mother is raising two children single-handedly and maintains a relationship with English teacher Travis Manawa, her apocalyptic partner. The challenge of blending their families is exacerbated by unforeseen chaos, and a necessary survival of the fittest takes hold.

4/5
As The Walking Dead returns to form during its penultimate season, spin-off Fear The Walking Dead similarly crawls towards improvement. Go to Full Review Cameron Bonomolo ComicBook.com 03/30/2021
After an aimless and often lethargic Season 5, Fear the Walking Dead continues its dramatic 180 in quality with two more compelling and energizing episodes that are among the best ever produced by the Walking Dead spin-off. Go to Full Review Malcolm Hopwood The Post NZ 11/14/2020
The problem is once the zombies have been decapitated or bounce off big rigs, there's not much left. The writers quickly run out of ideas. Go to Full Review Erik Kain Forbes 10/13/2020
I will hold out hope, however fragile, that Season 6 will continue to be as good as the season premiere. I worry that I'm judging it too much as a comparison to the last two seasons which set such absurdly low bars for quality. Go to Full Review Alexander Zalben Decider 10/13/2020
Based on the three episodes of the season provided for review, at least, Fear the Walking Dead is now a surprisingly fun anthology of short, Western-inspired stories. Go to Full Review Paul Dailly TV Fanatic 10/13/2020
3/5
The biggest compliment I can give to Fear the Walking Dead is that it likes to switch things up. It tries out new storytelling mechanics, more so than The Walking Dead. But is that really a compliment? I'm not so sure. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Josh H @RT12726881 08/18/2024 Episode 12 was so bad it is dragging the entire season down a good 2 stars. I wouldn't be surprised if the script was written by a 6 year old. See more Gorptholemew T @RT35369717 03/30/2024 🍀 5.4/10 I hate Dakota so much. This was close it sure was but yea I don’t love this the beginning was off to a bright start but once they start to introduce the cult they felt underdeveloped and needed much more time and it just feels bland by the end still better than last season thank god. See more georgiebrown2017 A @Yoryibrown 02/10/2024 Truly the best season of FTWD. Characters have time to shine and the twist and turns make a hell of a ride. I really wish the quality of this season would've been the same in the final two season, but it was not. Showrunners ruined the final season and they surely ruined Madison's story. But this season was absolutely great. See more Zack F @RT86648605 08/07/2023 fear the walking dead all the twist and turns never know what to expect See more Lexi E @LexiEve93 08/03/2023 Will never forgive how they ruined Mrgan as a character. Horrible spin off. The decline of TWD is the biggest failure on television I've ever seen! See more bloomGod @RT43493419 07/12/2023 A lot better than season 5 and Morgan is awesome this season. I kind of wish they would've made Morgan actually immune to the virus that would've been cool and made me more interested in the show. I really don't like the main villain teddy he really gets on my nerves. There's some interesting things with the ties to him and johns dad. But other than that I didn't love him as a villain and the bombing was a stupid choice in my opinion. See more Read all reviews
