"AMC has ordered a 13-episode second season of The Walking Dead, it has been reported.  The Walking Dead tells the story of life after a zombie apocalypse. Based on a comic book series by Robert Kirkman, the show premiered on Halloween, filling Mad Men&amp;#039;s recently-vacated timeslot following its fourth season conclusion.  The series has been very well-received, performing the best of any cable show ever in the coveted 18-49 demographic. The premiere attracted approximately 5.3 million viewers.  &amp;quot;The Dead has spread!&amp;quot; said Charlie Collier, president of AMC. &amp;quot;No other cable series has ever attracted as many adults 18-49 as The Walking Dead. This reaffirms viewers&amp;#039; hunger for premium television on basic cable. We are so proud to be bringing back The Dead again, across the globe.&amp;quot; The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 10pm on AMC in the US and Fridays at 10pm on FX in the UK.
