Updated report: Another The Walking Dead premiere. Another all-time record. Sunday’s zombie drama return delivered a big 16.1 million viewers and a stunning 8.2 rating among adults 18-49. That’s up 30 percent in the demo from the show’s previous high (the season 3 finale). The Walking Dead also once again has crushed the broadcast networks: This is the largest telecast of the fall in the adult demo, beating all broadcast entertainment shows. AMC claims the hour also has topped all sports telecasts this fall, and that certainly appears to be the case, but we’re still waiting for the final numbers on last night’s NFL telecast on NBC to come in. “Sincere thanks to the fans, who have welcomed The Walking Dead back for its fourth season with the highest-rated episode in the show’s history,” said AMC President Charlie Collier. Post-episode chat show The Talking Dead also set a record with 5.1 million viewers, including 3.3 million in the demo. EW also has a must-read post-premiere Q&A with creator Robert Kirkman here. http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/10/14/the-walking-dead-returns-to-record-viewership/

Can't wait to watch these when I get home! Thanks for posting!

The numbers are in - HOLY SH!T! Another The Walking Dead premiere. Another all-time record. Sunday’s zombie drama return delivered a stunning 16.1 million viewers and 10.1 million adults 18-49. That’s up 30 percent in the demo from the show’s previous high (the season 3 finale). “Sincere thanks to the fans, who have welcomed The Walking Dead back for its fourth season with the highest-rated episode in the show’s history,” said AMC President Charlie Collier. “ http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/10/14/the-walking-dead-returns-to-record-viewership/

I'm done! Eric, you don't post much elsewhere anymore, but I hope to catch you in other threads. See the rest of you in the other threads as well

I'm with Ann. I think the newbies are here to keep us from losing any of the group. They will give us reason to care for these people, so that when they are killed it will matter to us [but we won't notice we are not losing the regulars]. I think that was a great season opener, and I can't wait for what's in store. I'm especially loving that M has not forgotten about The Gov and will not sit back and wait for him to strike.

Bad idea to have him and Fillion on tonight. It was great to introduce Gimple to the audience, but perhaps they should have gone with someone we are familiar with and who's interesting. Not to harp on why the hell YB is not there, but this would have been a great time to have her! And what in the sam hell was all that about with Rick and that woman?

Michonne is still looking for The Gov? Love it! Yeah, it should have been Yvette!

What the hell was that? Ann, how did he turn? What did I miss?

School curriculum has come a long way!

That was one helluva scene! I can watch Michonne kicking ass all day! The scene with she and Sasha was intentional and I loved it!

Holy sh!t!

She looks like a new breed of zombies...

None, but I think it's a good idea to decrease the zombie population however they can. They have more bodies now and a lot of free time.

Andrea, present and accounted for! 18 minutes!!!!!

I'm going to skip this marathon because I want to forget Andrea existed. The group meeting the prisoners and Rick finishing off the leader will always be one of my favorite scenes.

I have died and gone to reality hell!

Yay! Shameful of her to believe she was not asked back because she was so classy and didn't fit. No, you just didn't fit, bitch, and everyone saw it, Mona, the audience, other cast members, etc! Love the way these ratchet ass women on reality TV like to throw out the word class. The definition certainly has changed.

VH, is this for real? I don't want Traci back at all. She ruins the show for me. The "Popcorn Ho" can keep it moving!

Well it worked, VH, cause I'm so gonna watch now! I might have to give up ATL because Tracy Steele makes my sking crawl with her overly fake ass!

Another slut pin-up who's managed to convince an unfortunate percentage of the population that she has talent as a singer. Hey Slutney, say hi to Katie Perry for me. Will yah!

What a stupid heinous unimaginative eppy! This show has expired!

Nene's platinum blonde is perfect as her signature look, but the length in the talking heads got to go - so agreed Cheap! The rest of the ladies needs to take Diana out back and beat her so badly that she can't participate in the wedding. She seems extremely miserable. Is Marlo in this for fame? Absolutely! Who isn't? But the way Diana seems to want to "protect" Nene is kind of creepy. Does Nene look like the type of person who needs protecting?

I don't understand why these young men won't remove their hats inside Nene's house! And the son in that blue hat is looking a little Forrest Gumpish.

Ranks right up there with offering to front SheBroke a loan. LMAO! I LOVE Marlo!
