After taking the summer off Fear The Walking Dead returned to television for the back half of its third season. The two-part premiere episode did an excellent job of setting up momentum for the coming weeks and the runup to the return of The Walking Dead.

When The Walking Dead returns for its eighth season in a few months, quite a few memorable moments are expected to take place. With the All Out War event kicking off in the Season 7 finale and the Season 8 premiere episode being the 100th episode of the series, we should be ready for some fireworks. But more importantly, we should expect to see some of the iconic moments from the comics portrayed on screen.
When it comes to The Walking Dead, much of the story is told from the point of view of Rick Grimes. The series depicts his struggles as he navigates the post-apocalypse with a ragtag band of survivors who've managed to connect along the way. And throughout all these connections being made, the main group has had to do some rather morally questionable things in the spirit of survival. Rick's group isn't alone in this regard; most of The Walking Dead living cast have been shown in equally questionable positions. However, while Rick's group has got their hands dirty, they continue to be portrayed as heroes to some extent.
Marvel's upcoming Netflix series The Punisher is expected to follow Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) after his adventures in Daredevil Season 2, as he takes on the criminal underworld by himself with enemies on all sides. He'll have associates like Micro and Karen to rely on for support — but when it comes down to it, the Punisher can singlehandedly deal with bad guys of every kind. For proof, check out the new clip below:
At the moment, it doesn't look like The Simpsons is going to end its series run anytime soon. It's been on Fox for 28 seasons and just got renewed for two more.
There are still a few months left before The Walking Dead Season 8, but the good news is that companion series Fear The Walking Dead should tide us over until October.
To say that Death Note could have been a better anime adaptation is quite the understatement. Fans everywhere have hit Netflix's movie hard with major critiques, and things aren't looking good for the future of the property. But it should have a future.
Inhumans recently debuted on ABC, kicking off an intense battle between two clans of Inhumans fighting over control of Attilan. Black Bolt and his sect of the Royal Family are expected to make a stand on Earth, while they attempt to regain control of Attilan from its new ruler, Maximus. He overthrew Black Bolt's regime in a cleverly planned coup that saw most of his fellow Royal Family dropped and left on an island in Hawaii. It seems he accomplished everything without the use of any Inhuman powers—or did he? The television depiction of Maximus doesn't appear to have any Inhuman powers like his comic counterpart, but there may be something boiling underneath the surface that we've yet to understand.
The Gifted is coming to Fox next week, and it looks like one of the most compelling X-Men-based properties we've seen to date, standing out in many ways. One of its most intriguing aspects is bringing the mutant-hunting Sentinels to television — but it's a class of Sentinels that's never been shown before.
On the latest story arc of Dragon Ball Super, the Tournament of Power has become the main focus. This tournament stands out amongst all of the past tournaments in the #DragonBall anime because of how it will decide the fate of seven universes. The winners will be spared erasure while the other six universes are deleted from existence — they won't be killed off and resurrected — making the stakes rather high this time.
Two weeks before Stranger Things Season 2 hits Netflix, the streaming network released a surprise final trailer. It depicts the townspeople of Hawkins, Indiana, gearing up to take on monsters that have escaped from the Upside Down — it appears to be a full-scale invasion from the parallel dimension. Check it out below:
We're still a few months away from the Season 2 premiere of Netflix's #StrangerThings, yet the series continuing to get attention even while on hiatus. Most fans would assume the more revealing information about the sophomore season would be kept secret until a time closer to the Season 2 premiere. However, a new tidbit of information seems to contradict that assumption.
