Reading the minds of cable network programmers

So, if you care even a little, you probably know that AMC’s “The Walking Dead” wrapped up its season last night.

And next Sunday night, Easter Sunday, “Mad Men” starts its final run.

Anyway, I found myself wondering. Did anyone at AMC involved in scheduling these programming events have the good sense to realize that trotting out a high-profile episode of a show called “The Walking Dead” on Easter could be seen as bad form (and so they moved it up a week). Or was this pure coincidence?
