While it did not gain all of the lost ground, Sunday’s “Fear The Walking Dead” did rise from last week’s Labor Day Weekend edition.

According to live+same-day data posted by Showbuzz, Sunday’s “FTWD” posted a 1.49 adults 18-49 rating and 3.40 million total viewers.

The numbers comfortably top the 1.24 rating and 2.99 million viewer mark drawn by last week’s broadcast but trail those of any other “Fear The Walking Dead” episode.

Neither as popular as it was last year nor as popular as AMC’s “The Walking Dead” mothership, “Fear” remains a strong performer from a competitive standpoint. It was Sunday’s #1 cable original in adults 18-49 and total viewership.
