Top 40 Weekly Cable Ratings: Week of 02/11/13

LeBron James and Kobe Bryant may be big, but they are no match for THE WALKING DEAD as the Zombie action drama easily took top honors, again, in the cable top 40.

DOwn from its mid-season premiere last week, THE WALKING DEAD drew 11 million viewers and an impressive 5.6 demo rating. That 5.6 demo rating was tops in all of TV, besting THE BIG BANG THEORY's Thursday episode on CBS.

THE NBA still had a good weekend. It drew nearly 14 million viewers over two nights of All-Star festivities, including 8 million for the All-Star Game itself. The saturday night fest was just a tick under 6 million viewers.
