Background survivors alongside the main characters; seen standing outside of the Rosarito Beach Hotel community.

The following are a list of Background Survivors from AMC's Fear The Walking Dead. Sometimes classified as "redshirts"[1], these characters are appear in the background during episodes while the main survivors are engaged in the story. These survivors usually have no part in the main storyline and perform normal, everyday, non-crucial actions.

Background survivors are usually left unnamed, have no speaking roles, and are uncredited. They are ideal for being used as redshirts, characters used to "dramatise the dangerous situation experienced by the main characters", such as the zombie attack on the compound in Season 1 Episode 6 "The Good Man" or the border attack on La Colonia citizens in Season 2 Episode "North". With the introduction of several towns and communities, extras are utilized as background survivors to show a large population at these settlements, including El Sereno, La Colonia and the Rosarito Beach Hotel.
