"Fear the Walking Dead" Season 5, Episode 15 "Channel 5": Will Ginny's Way Be Our Heroes' Only Way? [PREVIEW]

If you're a fan of the Walking Dead universe, things are pretty sweet right now – especially from the perspective of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. Following up on an epic appearance at this summer's Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC), we learned that the series been picked up for a sixth season – and as we've already seen, the second-half brings the arrival of new survivors – and new foes. Then there are those teases about this season being a game-changer and those connections with CRM and black helicopters. Hmmm…

Since we made out thoughts pretty clear on this week's FTWD-TWD-Rick Grimes connections (cheap plug for you to go read this), we're jumping ahead to a look at the preview images for the season's penultimate episode "Channel 5."

In the images released (above and below), it appears "black helicopters" are taking a back seat our heroes actually finding a place to call home before they end up going the way of the Vultures – and then there's the matter of Morgan (Lennie James) and a very sick Grace (Karen David)… and this feeling we have that something's not right.

Fear the Walking Dead season 5, episode 15 "Channel 5": The group searches for a new home; concerned for Grace, Morgan makes a tough call.

Our previous preview shows our heroes actively looking to prove Ginny (Colby Minifie) and her way of "creating a better future" wrong… but is she?

Heading into season 5 of Fear the Walking Dead, the group's mission is clear: locate survivors and help make what's left of the world a slightly better place. With dogged determination, Morgan Jones leads the group with a philosophy rooted in benevolence, community and hope. Each character believes that helping others will allow them to make up for the wrongs of their pasts.

In the second half of Season 5, after successfully proving their way can work, our heroes gain momentum, rescuing survivors, and spreading the message of hope along the way — until foes both familiar and unexpected arise, forcing the group to question whether their brand of altruism can really make a difference in a world filled with death and decay.
