'The Walking Dead' kills: Record ratings...
Photo credit: AMC/
Huge night for "The Walking Dead" which pretty much acted like the Grammys didn't even exist...8.1 million viewers, which isn't all that far off to a total viewer record in basic cable for a drama, while the show did blast the demo number out of the dead zone...
Per AMC: The "mid-season premiere of “The Walking Dead” became the strongest telecast for any drama in basic cable history against key demos including 5.4 million adults 18-49 and 4.4 million adults 25-54....The show delivered 8.1 million viewers for its 9pm premiere and delivered 10.1 million viewers for the night (9pm premiere and 11pm and 12:30 am encores). "
"Comic Book Men" of course fared less well - 2 million - but still not bad.
