    is an American post-apocalyptic horror drama television series created by Robert Kirkman and Dave Erickson for AMC. It is a spin-off to The Walking Dead, which is based on the comic book series of the same name by Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard. It is also the second television series within The Walking Dead television universe. The first three seasons serve as a prequel, focusing on a blended family who experience the start of the zombie apocalypse. Subsequent seasons run concurrently to the original show, with Morgan Jones (Lennie James) from The Walking Dead crossing over into the series.

    The series features a large ensemble cast, originally led by Kim Dickens as Madison Clark, Cliff Curtis as Travis Manawa, Frank Dillane as Nicholas Clark, and Alycia Debnam-Carey as Alicia Clark. Following a soft reboot with its fourth season, the series was led by Lennie James as Morgan Jones. Other series regulars have included Colman Domingo, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Mercedes Mason, Garret Dillahunt, Danay Garcia, Austin Amelio, Daniel Sharman, Jenna Elfman, Alexa Nisenson, Dayton Callie, Maggie Grace, Christine Evangelista, Mo Collins, and Rubén Blades.

They must reinvent themselves, learning new skills and adopting new attitudes in order to survive as civilization collapses around them.

    Beginning in the fourth season, the series shifts focus towards Morgan Jones, a character from the original series, who encounters the group's surviving members and new survivors in Texas.
