According to TheWrap.com AMC’S hit show The Walking Dead could end its third season with more total viewers than network TV powerhouses like Modern Family and Big Bang Theory.
No cable series has ever finished at the top of the ratings wars over an entire season, and so if The Walking Dead pulls it off this will be an earthshaking moment in television history.
And The Wrap thinks it’s going to happen:
“There is reason to believe they can – because the audience for The Walking Dead has grown like a horde of zombies.”
Don’t forget that TWD’s season 3 premiere aired against Sunday Night Football in much of the U.S., and it isn’t even carried by satellite provider Dish. Still, it broke all time ratings records for a single episode.
Just another clear sign that the zombie plague can’t be stopped!
And so it should, it’s brilliant, i live in the UK, my Dad has sky, however i mainly live with my mum, so either go to dads to watch it, or find it somewhere online! Either way they won’t be misssing my viewing as i’ll still watch it on tv, just have to have one up on my dad so i’m a few episodes ahead!
Dish has added AMC back!!! I got to watch the latest episodes and it is just proof that the virus will spread regardless how much u try to isolate yourself from it (dish). My complaints were actually heard when I sent dish a message.
Walking Dead really takes the classic zombie and the modern zombie and gives us a great mixture coupled with provocative storylines and plot twist. I myself love it.
And what an epic premier it was! As I’m sure the rest of the season will be now that Michonne and the Governor are here! The Walking Dead for the win just like my Giants baby!
All the more reason why DISH, or any other cable/satellite provider shouldn’t put these channels of the air for stupid reasons. Look at all the money they are losing right now because of greed, and stupid corporate decisions. The Walking Dead is an amazingly brilliant tv show, and deserves all the awards and praise it has and will continually get.
