Fear the Walking Deadwas the first-ever spinoff of the original series, premiering in 2015 and running for eight seasons. The show focuses on the beginnings of the mass infection, and the first season especially features simple moments that are particularly chilling. Survivors still taking out the garbage for trash collection day and bored, frustrated teens texting each other provide scenarios that make the show all the more terrifying for their depiction of realism in the face of early days of disaster.

You can hope to be somebody. But when you’re faced with life and death circumstances, who you truly are really comes out in that moment. And sometimes it’s a surprise to even that person themselves.

Maggie Rhee (Lauren Cohan) and nemesis-turned-frenemy Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) team up to take on walkers in crumbling Manhattan inThe Walking Dead: Dead City. Originally titledIsle of the Dead, the show follows Maggie and Negan as they search for her missing son in what was once the bustling Big Apple. A major theme of this spinoff is betrayal, and without any major spoilers, Maggie and Negan’s relationship isn’t exactly the smoothest.
“Any time he can get put into a corner, fun things are going to happen,” Morgan teased. “And so now we leave off here with Negan in a corner, and we’ll get to tell the story of him trying to get out of it. Because he’s in a bad position right now, and he knows it. That’s a rare position for him, other than when he was in jail for, you know, 10 years in Alexandria.”
