Turkey-stuffed viewers will have something to look forward to this Friday. The 12th episode of Syfy’s hit zombie show, titled “Murphy’s Law,” features zombies running amok in a pharmaceutical plant, chowing down on speed, Oxy, and yes, Viagra.
In “Murphy’s Law,” the survivors must come to terms with Murphy’s immunity to the virus and his strange, growing power to control zombies—and humans.
With just two episodes left, Z Nation continues to be a strong performer for Syfy. Last Friday’s episode, “Sisters of Mercy,” hit a series high in the 18-49 demographic.
Z Nation launched as Syfy’s highest-rated acquired scripted series premiere since Dr. Who in 2006 and was the network’s most social acquisition ever. The pilot, “Puppies and Kittens,” won the 10pm timeslot for Syfy, outperforming AMC’s Turn and Halt and Catch Fire as well as TNT’s Legends, WGNA’s Salem, and Outlander on Starz. The second episode drew more viewers than the first in both the US and Canada (where it airs on Space), and the show continues to draw high viewerships and young-skewing audiences.
Z Nation airs Friday nights at 10pm on Syfy. Starring DJ Qualls (LOST, SMALLVILLE), Kellita Smith (THE BERNIE MAC SHOW), Nat Zang, Pisay Pao, and Keith Allan. Created by Karl Schaefer (EUREKA, EERIE INDIANA) and Craig Engler.
