The horror TV series Z Nation was produced by The Asylum (a company best known for the Sharknado franchise and mockbusters) and aired on Syfy for five seasons, running for a total of 68 episodes from September 12, 2014 to December 28, 2018. After that show wrapped up, a prequel series called Black Summer ran for two seasons (released in 2019 and 2021) on the Netflix streaming service. If you’ve been wondering when Black Summer is going to return for a third season… well, it looks like it’s not going to, because the folks at What’s on Netflix have confirmed that Netflix quietly “ghost cancelled” the show. But a new post on The Asylum’s X account indicates that Z Nation might be getting a revival! The post promises that a big announcement is coming soon…

Z Nation, made by schlock specialists The Asylum, has just been renewed for season 3. Here's why you should be watching...
If AMC's The Walking Dead is the miserabilist emo-goth teen of the televisual zombie apocalypse, then SyFy's Z Nation is its swaggering, devil-may-care little cousin, who's having too much fun smoking weed, gorging on pop-culture tropes and generally dicking around to waste its time indulging in any gravely serious, existential, pseudo-political clap-trap. Therein lies the secret to Z Nation's appeal: it's fun. It laughs at itself, and wants you to laugh along, too.
Comparisons with The Walking Dead are inevitable, and not just because the two shows share the zombie apocalypse as a backdrop. Z Nation is made by The Asylum, a production company that's become synonymous with jumping on a bandwagon, copying the schematics for that bandwagon, and then producing their own bandwagon that is...

The Lottery: “Truth Be Told” - Sunday, September 14 at 9 Pm
I think we all saw this “assassinate the president” scheme coming a mile away, but at least The Lottery is making some good decisions with it. As Vanessa and Alison get closer to uncovering Darius’ evil scheming, it puts Vanessa in some very hot water because she’s attempting to coerce the president’s wife to change venues when they announce the 100 mothers. Finally, there’s some actual tension in the air! Not only that, but Darius also has to target his daughter because she knows about the assassination attempt. Familial drama abounds.
