Tonight, Fear the Walking Dead returns for its third season. When we last left off, Chris had accepted his darker nature and had ditched his father to travel with some other like-minded young men. However, Travis later discovered that men had killed his son, and the shock of the situation unleashed a beast inside him. He beat Brandon and Derrick to death and mortally wounded one of the hotel residents in the process. The fallout from this led to the group being evicted from this safe haven and sent them on the run in search of Nick. Meanwhile, in La Colonia, Alejandro got bit by a walker, and he finally admitted he wasn’t actually immune. As Nick and Luciana led the rest of the people toward a military base, Alejandro stayed back to make one final stand against Marco and his men. As the group made it to the border, with the military base/refugee camp in sight, they suddenly came under fire. They tried to fight back, but Nick and Luciana were taken by the vigilantes. At the same time, Travis, Madison, and Alicia finally made it to La Colonia, where Margo and his gang were now walkers, and in his dying breath Alejandro told them that Nick was headed for the border.

Who are these people who took Nick and Luciana, and what do they want? Will Travis, Madison, and Alicia finally be reunited with Nick in time to save him? I was thrilled to see Chris get killed off last season – he was one of the weakest parts of the show. I look forward to seeing how the series improves without him and what kinds of new threats our group of survivors will face next.

If you missed any of last season or want to re-live it, AMC is re-airing all 15 episodes starting at 5:45am ET/PT this morning, leading up to the season premiere.

On tonight’s 2-hour premiere, “Eye of the Beholder/The New Frontier,” the Clark family find themselves in a dire predicament and must work together to discover a path to safety; and Strand faces resistance as he attempts to hold power over his domain.

Check out the two-hour season premiere tonight on AMC at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Talking Dead, Food Network Star, The Leftovers, Silicon Valley, American Gods, and I’m Dying Up Here.
