The Walking Dead has just been renewed for a fifth season - and that's no surprise, given its spectacular performance in the Stateside TV ratings. It's the number one show among viewers between 18-49, the sweetest demographic on the small screen. The season four premiere grabbed over 16 million zombie-watchers, a new record for AMC.
“We are very happy to make what has to be one of the most anti-climactic renewal announcements ever,” says Charlie Collier, president of AMC. “This is a show that has erased traditional distinctions between cable and broadcast. Its expanding base of passionate fans has grown every season, most recently – and most notably – with the season four premiere earlier this month, which broke viewership records for the series and became the biggest non-sports telecast in cable history. On behalf of the incredible team on both sides of the camera, thank you to the fans and here’s to more Dead .’”
