How to watch the season 8 premiere of Fear the Walking Dead early
By Renee Hansen
Fear the Walking Dead will premiere its eighth and final season on AMC on May 14. The series has twelve episodes to conclude its story, and will release these last episodes in two parts. Fans who subscribe to AMC+ can begin watching the new season on May 11.
Fear the Walking Dead was the first spinoff in The Walking Dead universe that paved the way for many more to come. This series will have a shorter season of 12 episodes to wrap its story compared to the mega-sized 24-episode final season of the flagship series that ended in November 2022. Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) fans are excited to see this character return as a series regular for the last season as she returned for the season 7 finale. She was discovered to be working as a collector for the mysterious PADRE organization by Morgan (Lennie James).
