The Walking Dead, which airs on AMC every Sunday, may soon be considered the top-rated scripted show on T.V. The Walking Dead's season 3 premiere that premiered on Sunday "broke audience records for basic cable dramas by scaring up 10.9 million viewers" said Tim Molly, a writer for Yahoo. That's not all, it also thrived in the 18-49 age demographic, most important to advertisers.
Did anyone think then that a zombie comic crossed with a rebranded movie network would spawn one of television's biggest hits? A show that also happens to be incredibly violent and gory? Sunday's premiere began with a close-up of a clouded zombie eye, and ended with a man getting his leg sawed off with no anesthetic.
So, as long as they keep the ratings and viewings up, they will make it to the top-rated scripted show on T.V.
