A multi-episode storyline from a previous season was made pointless by a huge character death in Fear the Walking Dead season 8 part 2.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary An entire storyline from Fear the Walking Dead became pointless with Charlie’s death in season 8. Following a prolonged absence from the show, Charlie finally re-entered the picture in the second episode of season 8’s back half. But rather than use her return to make her an integral part of the show’s ending, FTWD engineered a surprising twist by having the character give her life to stop Troy.
The whereabouts of group mainstays like Charlie, Rabbi Jacob, Strand, and Luciana was a major topic of speculation going into Fear the Walking Dead season 8 part 2. The series resolved the mystery concerning Victor Strand in the midseason premiere, and revealed what happened to Luciana in the first few minutes of Fear the Walking Dead season 8, episode 8, titled “Iron Tiger.
Charlie's Return & Death Mean Her Fear TWD Season 7 Story Was Pointless Fundamentally, what made the nature of her return to Fear the Walking Dead so surprising was the direction her story took in season 7. A Charlie-centric episode, titled “Mourning Cloak,” culminated in her contracting a fatal form of radiation sickness. Her arc, from then on, revolved around the character facing the reality that she wasn’t going to survive.
Charlie received radiation sickness after embarking on a mission from Morgan to infiltrate Strand's Tower and coming into contact with irradiated zombies.After the reveal that Charlie survived because PADRE had access to medicine that wasn’t at Strand’s Tower, there’s a sense that this whole plotline from season 7 served no purpose. All it led to was Charlie getting through her illness offscreen. What’s more, Charlie wound up dying anyway, albeit for a completely different reason.
Charlie's FTWD Fate Was Better Than Dying Off-Screen, At Least All things considered, Charlie’s return still felt necessary for FTWD, largely because of the connection between her and Madison. The responsibility she bears for Nick’s death in Fear the Walking Dead meant that the show needed a moment where Madison learned the truth about Charlie and Nick.
