TELEVISION VIEWERSHIP: In front of the television really was the place to be this week. Lots of things going on. First of all the 48 Hour Mystery special about the true life area where over 30 women have gone missing broke ratings for the network. True Blood and Falling Skies both saw a minor increase in viewers. There were a lot of reruns of teen shows like Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries; SyFy favorites like Destination Truth which has a season premiere this coming week; and my favorite Grimm even got an episode in. SyFy’s School Spirits and Haunted Highway are still struggling and after catching up on them this morning, I really think you should check ’em out. Finally, a black and white airing of The Walking Dead’s pilot episode was broadcast on AMC along with an episode of The Talking Dead, which featured a season three preview. It is on our Facebook page for anyone who missed it.
