What’s This TV Show About?

A post-apocalyptic horror drama series airing on the AMC cable channel, The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live TV show is the sixth spin-off of The Walking Dead series. It stars Andrew Lincoln, Danai Gurira, Pollyanna McIntosh, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Terry O’Quinn, Matthew August Jeffers, Craig Tate, Andrew Bachelor, Brenda Wool, and Craig Tate. In the original series, former sheriff’s deputy Rick Grimes (Lincoln) was severely injured and believed to be dead by Michonne (Gurira), Rick’s wife and the mother of his young son. Years later, this katana-wielding warrior searches for him after finding evidence that he is still alive. As this new series begins, Rick is now a resident of a vast city that shields itself from the outside world. Run by the Civic Republic Military, no one who enters the city can ever leave, a brutally enforced rule. When Michonne finally finds him, he’s not the man she once knew.
 

Season One Ratings

The first season of The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live averaged a 0.18 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 871,000  viewers in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.

Telly’s Take

Will AMC cancel or renew The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live for season two? While the Walking Dead shows are no longer blockbusters, I think this one will still do well enough for AMC to justify another season of six episodes.
