Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Have any of you guys or gals been peeping SyFy's "Z-Nation"? If so you'll be happy to hear that the series has just been picked up for a second season according to series co-creator Craig Engler, who shot out a tweet with the exciting news.

I've yet to sit down and check out "Z-Nation", but I'm thrilled to hear that it has done well enough in the ratings to warrant a second season. More horror on TV always sits well with this guy!

“From The Asylum, the producers of Sharknado and Sharknado 2: The Second One, Z Nation starts three years after the zombie virus has gutted the country. A team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the antibodies he carries are the world’s last, best hope for a vaccine, he hides a dark secret that threatens them all. With humankind’s survival at stake, the ragtag band embarks on a journey of survival across three thousand miles of rusted-out post-apocalyptic America.”

Z Nation stars Harold Perrineau ("Lost", "Oz"), Tom Everett Scott ("Beauty and the Beast", "Southland"), DJ Qualls (ROAD TRIP, "Supernatural"), Michael Welch (TWILIGHT trilogy), Kellita Smith ("The Bernie Mac Show"), Anastasia Baranova (THE DARKNESS II), Russel Hodgkingson (BIG FISH) and Keith Allan (RISE OF THE ZOMBIES). The show is executive produced by Karl Schaefer ("Eureka", The Dead Zone), who is also the showrunner.
