What happens
Black Summer is an American zombie apocalypse horror drama television series created by Karl Schaefer and John Hyams. It is a spin-off of Z Nation, serving as a prequel to the series, however with a much darker and less comedic tone. Black Summer ran for two seasons between 2019 and 2021. The first season, consisting of eight episodes, was released on Netflix on April 11, 2019. The series is produced by The Asylum, the same production company behind Z Nation, and is written and directed primarily by Hyams, with Abram Cox writing and directing additional episodes. Jaime King stars in the lead role as Rose, a mother who is separated from her daughter during the earliest and deadliest days of a zombie apocalypse. The series garnered moderate approval from fans and critics. Many of the filming locations are around and within Calgary, Alberta. In November 2019, Netflix renewed the series for an eight-episode second season, which was released on June 17, 2021. In April 2023, Schaefer and Hyams stated that the series will not return for a third season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
