Another record return to the movie world reaching 12.3 million viewers is the sequal of horror movie Walking Dead. AMC’s The Walking Dead season 3 returned last night among the huge amount of its fans. It is a series high for the zombie apocalypse drama. Up against the Grammys, the 9 PM mid-season premiere pulled in 7.7 million viewers among Adults 18-49, a basic-cable record for a series and up 6% from the show’s previous high for its October 14 season premiere.
In total, 16.6 million viewers watched Walking Dead last night combining the 9 PM premiere and 11 PM, midnight and 2 AM encores on AMC. The series was back Sunday for the last eight episodes of its third season after a break of more than two months.
The big numbers Sunday come after a record-breaking third season so far that saw the show pull in a massive 10.9 million Live+Same Day total viewers for its October 14 premiere, which bested all other telecasts cable and broadcast. The Walking Dead’s mid-season finale on December 2 garnered 10.5 million viewers in its 9 PM time slot and 15.2 million for the entire night with encores.
The Walking Dead’s Season 3 series average in the 18-49 demo is ahead of the averages for big network shows like The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family and NCIS. Walking Dead was renewed for a fourth season late last year. Accoding to the executive producer Gale Anne Hurd of this film the season 4 will hopefully hit the screen in October 2013. Another record!!!! Lets see.
