For the first time thus far, a “Fear The Walking Dead” episode posted week-over-week gains in adults 18-49 and total viewership.
Sunday’s episode, which was the AMC series’ fifth broadcast, posted a 3.44 adults 18-49 rating with 6.655 million viewers. The numbers only slightly top the 3.31 and 6.623 million drawn by last week’s episode, but they represent gains nonetheless.
The episode was cable’s top-rated and most-watched original Sunday program.
“Fear The Walking Dead,” which is a spin-off from AMC’s flagship “The Walking Dead,” has already been renewed for a second season.
