AMC’s “The Walking Dead” not only led the Sunday cable ratings again last week, but also managed to tick back up from its previous 1.9 to a 2.0 rating in adults 18-49. The NFL Network’s broadcast of the “Sunday Night Football” game between Philadelphia and Jacksonville came second in the night with a 1.3 and 3.59 million viewers.
Elsewhere, TLC’s “90 Day Fiance” was even with the same 0.6 it had scored the Sunday before. BBC America’s “Doctor Who” (0.3) also managed to match its previous episode, while E!’s “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” returned from a week off with another 0.4.
It was a steady night for HBO as well, as “Last Week Tonight” maintained a 0.3, and outside of the top 25, both “The Deuce” (0.1) and “Camping” (0.1) stayed even with their last episodes.
