Into the Badlands airs its final episode tonight to cap off season 3 at 10 p.m. ET / 9 p.m. Central on AMC. You can catch season 3’s epic conclusion live from your laptop over at AMC.com or with a free seven-day trial from FuboTV. According to Deadline, the series was confirmed to be canceled by AMC prior to its return back in March. Into the Badlands’ cast has reportedly moved forward with other roles after season 3 completed filming, so a season 4 surprise renewal is unlikely.
Nevertheless, it’s a time for celebration for Into the Badlands fans as the Pilgrim arch gets ultimate closure. No holding back without another season in the midst, every character is all in. The preview trailer’s closing caption says it all, “Fight to the End” followed by Sunny’s primal scream going into battle. As bittersweet as it is for fans that the show is ending, at least they receive a true ending rather than being left in limbo.
The series originally went into hiatus after June 17, 2018 episode “Leopard Catches Cloud” (S03E08) until finally resuming on March 24, 2019 with “Chamber of the Scorpion” (S03E09). Despite this, interest was reignited with a 1.25 million live viewer rating according to Show Buzz Daily. It was around mid-April when Into the Badlands experienced a sharp viewer drop to 0.41 and 0.40 respectively, for episode 12 and 13 of season 3.
The show’s total viewer rating, which includes DVR, has similarly halved by close to a million viewers. Into the Badlands had 2 million total viewers on March 24 according to TV By The Numbers and had 1.15 million total viewers two episodes ago according to Programming Insider on the cusp of a series finale.
Sunny, The Widow and Bajie lead the charge against Pilgrim, as he attempts to gain ultimate control of the Badlands; M.K. seeks revenge on The Widow.

Check out Pilgrim ‘readying’ his troops spirit for battle with a resounding monologue in the sneak peek above! Will he seize the Badlands or will a unified front by Sunny, The Widow, and Bajie be able to stop the relentless charge? At the same time, The Widow will have to deal with M.K. seeking vengeance.
