AMC's getting out of Into The Badlands while the getting's good
Ending its run as television’s most successful prepositionally named TV series since Under The Dome took on In The Heat Of The Night, AMC announced today that the current season of its post-apocalyptic martial arts epic Into The Badlands will be its last. The show—which stars Daniel Wu as a Badlands badass dragged into conflicts between rival warlords in medieval future Oklahoma—is currently in the middle of its bifurcated third season, a.k.a. long enough to have built up a healthy head of nigh-incomprehensible proper noun vocab words for the rest of us to puzzle out, stuff like “Azra,” “the Totemists,” and, of course, the infamous “Meridian Chamber.”
