NEW YORK, NY - June 9, 2017 - "Fear the Walking Dead" returned to AMC Sunday night as the #2 drama on cable TV and #3 series on cable overall in 2017 behind only "The Walking Dead" and "Talking Dead."

"That 'Fear the Walking Dead' returns for season three as the #2 cable drama and #3 cable series overall is both gratifying and a fitting tribute to the many people who make this show possible," said Charlie Collier, president of AMC, SundanceTV and AMC Studios. "That, of course, starts with Robert Kirkman, Dave Erickson and so many producers, cast and crew and, always most important, the fans who join us south of the border each week. Welcome back!"
