The Ratings
At one point in Season 7, The Walking Dead had dropped to the lowest ratings since the show's third season.
After a drastic drop in the first couple of weeks, including over four million viewers leaving from Episode 7x01 to 7x02, it seems like the show has found its stride and how many loyal viewers it has. Here's out the ratings looked throughout all 16 episodes:
- 7x01: 17.03 million
- 7x02: 12.46 million
- 7x03: 11.72 million
- 7x04: 11.40 million
- 7x05: 11.00 million
- 7x06: 10.40 million
- 7x07: 10.48 million
- 7x08: 10.58 million
- 7x09: 12 million
- 7x10: 11.08 million
- 7x11: 10.42 million
- 7x12: 10.16 million
- 7x13: 10.68 million
- 7x14: 10.32 million
- 7x15: 10.54 million
- 7x16: 11.3 million
With Season 8 promising to be a more action-packed, optimistic effort than its predecessor which drove fans away with violence, humbled and scattered characters, and a slower pace than usual, the ratings might just see the upward bump they need starting with October's Episode 100.
