Fear the Walking Dead is over: This is what happens in the series finale

After Fear the Walking Dead brought back a fan favorite villain who was believed to be dead at the midseason start of season 8, the series finale in episode 12 once again raises a dead character from the dead: Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) is with her still living daughter Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) united, whose death was actually sealed at the end of season 7.

At the end of Fear the Walking Dead the remaining characters scatter to the four winds to help others. Because this is what the sunken PADRE becomes MADRE aid network born:

A lot of anger about the end of the series: Zombie finale of the Walking Dead spin-off divides fans

Consistent satisfaction with a finale looks different. After the end of Fear the Walking Dead, the audience is divided into two camps. Above all, The Walking Dead fans who stuck with the spin-off until the end in order to remain loyal to the series franchise with its numerous offshoots are disappointed:

Nobody in this world hates themselves anymorethan the people who actually stuck around for all 8 seasons of Fear the Walking Dead.

Me, after watching the Fear the Walking Dead finale and realizing that I wasted more than 8 years because I tuned in every week with the hope that it would get better. And now It ends with the most boring shit I’ve ever seen.

“F*** them,” is the Fear the Walking Dead writers’ response when asked why they did all those stupid things in the last two episodes. Why are they doing this to the fans?

However, there are still a few positive voices on social media, especially when it comes to the circular reasoning of the surviving Clark family members:

After 8 seasons and 113 episodes, we say goodbye to Fear the Walking Dead. It was a long journey. It’s a fair ending, Alicia and Madison reunite. This is how it began and ends with the Clarks.

That Madison and Alicia Clark were separated for almost a decade, living with the pain of believing the other was dead… and now the reunion… I’ve been waiting for this in Fear the Walking Dead for many yearst.

Even some who are satisfied now want an end for the troubled characters and The Walking Dead franchise with its rampant spin-offs:

Fear the Walking Dead has been a real mess over the last few years. But I have to say: That was a strong ending! Now please leave it alone. No more spin-offs. Let the stars move on and play other roles they deserve.
