  1. I'm comparing the initial broadcast only for both shows. So it's a like for like comparison. I don't see why there would be any difference in the percentage increase for either shows when you add later broadcast, DVR streams etc

    GoT plays their new episodes like 50 times (exaggeration, obviously) during the week and HBO Go is utilized quite a bit. TWD does not do either. So they're going to have more initial viewings. They never report the rest of the ratings for TWD, so I'm guessing those aren't very significant. Therefore it's very relevant to compare GoT's total weekly viewers with TWD's first airing.

    People know they have plenty of chances to watch GoT during the week. So they do it by their leisure. Not so with TWD.

  2. I know AMC is available in far more households in the US then HBO but even so I do find the GoT/TWD contrast between Australia and the US interesting. The Waling Dead has roughly twice the number of viewers in the US then that of Game of Thrones yet in Australia GoT has roughly 4 times the number of viewers.

    Well, not really. TWD averages around 14-15 million viewers per episode, right? But that's all for the first live viewing. GoT's total viewership per episode for season 4 was around 14-15m IIRC. They count all airings, DVR and streams. The half numbers are only for the very first live viewing through a television. So, they're about the same.

  3. No, it's an adaptation, not an animated flip book of the novels. They have to make creative choices that work for this medium, and for the general audience. They're making a TV show, not attempting to blow all of us book readers and make us feel all warm & fuzzy. They also know a hell of a lot more about what matters in the long run than any of us do.

    When are people going to realize that we have to totally separate the two? It. Will. Not. Be. The. Same. Just accept that and spare us all the book purist whining.

  4. What? Baumer said: Yes!! He just did it...no hesitation. Such an awesome moment.

    Then I said after Deanna called for it.

    Read that again after Deanna no mention of Rick doing it on his own. Baumer's comment was incorrect as it came from Deanna that is what I was saying. Look at my post again.

    What we're saying is that it wasn't necessary for you to point out that it was on Deanna's okay. We knew that.

  5. You guys are missing the point. Michone told Rick to wait for something to happen not to make it happen. Once something happened and Deanna saw that she let Rick lose. Did Rick need to ask Deanna for approval? Not really but he waited for it to happened anyways.

    This.

    I'm just laughing that this is being debated. I'm with Baumer on this one. You just trying to be difficult? :lol:
