Dead Set
Dead Set is a 5-episode miniseries that follows a film crew and their actors. While filming a reality show called Big Brother, a zombie attack breaks out.. And while the whole world suffers from the apocalypse, producer Patrick decides that the show must be protected at all costs. Without even bothering with the undead, the cast goes back to work. Everyone underestimates the seriousness of the situation. Dead Set is the first series from Charlie Brooker, creator of Black Mirror. Reviews were quite positive, but various budgetary reasons prevented the show from being renewed.
DMZ
The series is set on the civil war-torn island of Manhattan in the United States. Doctor Alma Ortega, nicknamed Zee, is somehow trying to help out in this Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). At the same time, she goes in search of her son, who disappeared eight years ago (that is, at the beginning of the conflict). To achieve her goals, she must face various gangs, including the Spanish Harlem Kings, who control Upper Manhattan. This is run by her ex-boyfriend. DMZ is a miniseries with only four episodes.
Fear the walking death
The Fear the Walking Dead series is a spin-off of the series of the same name. In the first three seasons, the viewer follows the life of a mixed and dysfunctional family in the midst of a zombie invasion. Mother Madison Clark is a high school counselor, her fiancé is an English teacher, her son is a drug addict. They are accompanied by other members of their entourage. They can’t always get along as a family, but they will have to because the world is crumbling around them. In season four, they focus on Morgan Jones, a character from the original series. He meets different groups of survivors. In contrast to The Walking Dead, Fear detaches itself much more from the comics since none of the characters appear in this one.
In the flesh
The meat series takes place in a small fictional village in Roarton some time after an event called “The Resurrection”. Meanwhile, a teenager named Kieren Walker and other residents died but were brought back to life as a zombie. Upon their return, they were all expelled and then reintroduced into society by the government. The only condition to remain among the living is a daily drug injection. However, they are not immune to discrimination and many of them have post-traumatic memories of their actions as the living dead.
SCO soldiers or zombies
SOZ Soldiers Or Zombies is a one-season ongoing Mexican series. Alonso Marroquin is a drug dealer who escaped from a maximum security prison with his son Lucas. They decide to seek refuge near the American border. They don’t know yet that zombies are appearing in the same region due to military experiments The first victims are the soldiers pursuing Alonso. The government decided very early on to take on the problem. The production is currently quite short with only 8 episodes.
The Last Ship
After months on a ship in the Arctic, the crew of the USS Nathan James, a United States Navy destroyer, discovers that an epidemic has devastated the world. The population is almost completely decimated and most governments have fallen, particularly that of the United States. Luckily, among the more than 200 ship survivors, one is a scientist. With the help of those left behind, she sets out to find a vaccine against this mysterious disease and prevent humanity from dying out completely. The series ended in 2018 with five seasons.
The Walking Dead World beyond
Another spin-off of The Walking Dead franchise. Set almost 10 years after the zombie apocalypse, this series follows the adventures of four teenagers. They represent the first generation born at this end of the world. They decide to leave what is considered the safest area of Nebraska to traverse the country. Some of them will stay on the straight and narrow while others will become adversaries. The series is already complete as it ended after two seasons. If World Beyond shared much, the casting was commended and the story may offer some clues as to the future of certain main characters in the series.
