Fear the Walking Dead Preview: Non-spoiler thoughts for “Anton”

Fear the Walking Dead is back with the second half of season 8 and it’s jam-packed full of reunions. Some may surprise you; others may infuriate you, but all leave you wanting much more for the rest of the season.

Sadly, in the end, we must all say goodbye to these heroes and villains. But there is still a path yet to be ventured down, promises yet to be fulfilled, and heartaches yet to occur before the series finale of Fear of the Walking Dead. 

Guess who’s back? Back again?

The emergence of Troy is alive and well, and fans will get to see what our favorite little psychopath has been up to and what his motives are behind getting to Madison. The past comes back to haunt both Madison and Troy in this thrilling return.

But will Madison come out on top this time or are her mistakes beyond forgiveness? The road to redemption returns Sunday, October 22 with the opener of season 8B “Anton” on AMC and AMC Plus.

Just like The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, the back half of the season will only be airing on Sundays on both AMC and AMC Plus. No early releases, so The Walking Dead family can enjoy it all together!

“Anton” is written by Nazrin Choudhury and Justin Boyd. The 7th installment of season 8 is directed by none other than our own Danay Garcia.

“Strand fights to protect his new life when it’s threatened by the arrival of an old friend.”

Here are our non-spoiler reactions to both episodes of “Anton”:

2. This isn’t Berlin anymore.
3. An…who!?
