Though last week’s edition of “The Walking Dead” predictably lost some of the premiere audience, the AMC hit held steady in the ratings for week three and actually improved with total viewers.
“Dead” garnered a 2.5 adults 18-49 rating with 5.074 million viewers according to Mediaweek, which represents an increase of about 8% among total viewers.
It is still far too early to deem “The Walking Dead” a surefire ratings phenomenon, but with only a few episodes remaining in the first season, it now seems very unlikely it will head into hiatus as anything less than a very successful new cable drama.
Well we know that the show was picked up for a second season. The true fans are not worried about the ratings
Agree with youalistair,
True fans r not worried
They should do all the can to move up that date for season 2 though. Maybe add a few episodes to the season. Making people wait 6-7 months for this show only to pretty much immediately go on break for another full year is risky.
“The true fans are not worried about the ratings”
Really? Anyone remember “Jericho”?
