NFL finally has a challenger to their TV ratings: The Walking Dead

    The Walking Dead consistently beats Sunday Night Football on the most coveted demographic (adults 18-49) - though it still trails in total viewers.

    But for any show - let alone one on AMC with little to no advertising - to be able to challenge the NFL goliath - is pretty damn impressive.

    Very impressive. I was impressed, but not as surprised, when the premiere beat SNF. But for a regular episode - and not a very good one, at that - to beat the NFL says a lot about how well the show is doing.

    One way or another, on Sunday nights people like watching people walking around with no brains.

    A Travis Ishikawa-worthy walk-off!

    That was still going up when it cleared the light tower.
