The episode of the "borders that we cross" attracted only 4 million spectators to the TV screens, showing the most sad result in the history of the series. Usually, the premiere series is always high popularity, for a long break, fans bored their favorite heroes and are looking forward to new exciting events. But this year the Showranner was waiting for the utmost failure.
However, perhaps everything is not so bad - we have two explanations, why the audience were sentenced with the episode with the critics. First, the possessors of the AMC Premiere premium subscription watched the new episode before the other for a whole week, their number was not taken into account when drawing up the rating.
Secondly, in recent years, the audience is no longer chased to see the episode of the favorite TV series before everyone, and try to dig more series to see their volley. (We, of course, do not mean the final season of the Games of the Thrones).
