"Internationally season 3 consistently ranked as the number one show on pay-tv, beating out all other completion in major markets and out-performing all prior season averages."

"In the highly anticipated new season, we find Rick and the group fostering a thriving community in the safe haven of the prison. Sadly, in this brutal world, happiness is short-lived and walkers and outside threats are no match for danger brewing inside the fences. The group's home and new way of life will be thoroughly tested, and their struggle to survive has never been so perilous."
