Yes, “Black Summer” got cancelled. It’s a show about zombies that’s a spinoff of another series called “Z Nation.”
People liked it because it had lots of action and interesting characters, especially Jaime King who played Rose, a mom trying to find her daughter during a zombie apocalypse.
Even though fans loved it, Netflix decided not to make more episodes after the second season.
One of the creators, John Hyams, confirmed this on Twitter in April 2023. It was sad news for fans who wanted to see more of the show.
“Black Summer” was known for its intense scenes, like those where everything happens in one shot, making it exciting to watch.
But now, there won’t be any new episodes, leaving fans with questions from the last episode of the second season.
But don’t worry, you can still watch the 16 episodes that are already out, which show the struggles of characters like Rose, Spears, and Sun as they try to survive.
