Will We See More Into The Badlands?


The AMC series Into The Badlands appeared one day and sowed confusion with this strange combination of southern plantations with barons, a Roman-like gladiator school for teens, an alpha mentoring friendship (more like Teen Wolf than anything else), and bike-riding Kung-fu swordsmen (though only the lead is Asian). 

Yes, it was very odd. It lasted six episodes and then disappeared. And now, strangely, I miss it. Will we see more?

The good news is that the show's premiere, with 8.2 million viewers, was the third best in cable history. The bad news is that AMC is still silent on renewal. I hope the network takes a chance on season two. It is certainly a unique story with more tales to tell.
