While AMC has supplemented "The Walking Dead" with online offerings before, this will be the first time a new character will emerge and join a series.
The network has every reason to milk its zombie franchise right now. The first episode of "Fear the Walking Dead," which premiered last Sunday to record numbers, ballooned to 13.3 million viewers and 8.5 million in the 18 to 49-year-old demographic advertisers love most when counting the Live plus three day (L +3) audience.
"Fear the Walking Dead" continues to air Sundays at 9 p.m. It will then be replaced in the timeslot by sixth season of "The Walking Dead" starting Sunday, October 11.
