Last night's fifth season premiere of AMC's The Walking Dead delivered the highest ratings in series history, with 17.3 million viewers and 11 million adults aged 18-49, increases of 7% and 6%, respectively, over the season four premiere, the previous record-holder.
That's based on overnight numbers, of course, and the live plus three-day and live plus seven-day numbers for genre shows typically rise significantly.
The Walking Dead continues to be the #1 show on television among adults 18-49. Last night’s episode outperformed everything else on television in this key demographic, including Sunday Night Football, by over 2.5 million adults 18-49. With time-shifted playback (AMC replays The Walking Dead twice throughout the night), the season five premiere should exceed 22 million viewers.
