image for Ratings: AMC’s “The Walking Dead” Falls This Week

Last week’s “The Walking Dead” enjoyed gains in adults 18-49 and overall viewership.

This week’s episode gave back those gains — and then some.

According to live+same-day data posted by Showbuzz, Sunday’s “TWD” drew a 3.42 adults 18-49 rating and averaged 7.85 million overall viewers.

They also trail the 3.79 rating and 8.52 million viewer sum posted by the November 5 episode.

From a live+same-day standpoint, this week’s broadcast was the least-watched episode since season two.

Despite that distinction, it was still Sunday’s #1 cable original in adults 18-49 and overall viewership.

— “The Walking Dead” led into “Talking Dead,” which drew a 1.09 rating and 2.62 million viewers this week. »
