AMC's The Walking Dead just passed the 10 million fan mark on Facebook. That's a big number -- especially for a television show on cable TV.

To celebrate the event, AMC created an awesome graphic to thank fans of the show. A pitch-perfect homage to the movie poster from 2009's The Social Network, the graphic even has its own tagline: "You don't get 10 million fans without eating a few."

We love it.

In addition to the standard Facebook page, AMC also has a social game for The Walking Dead -- currently in beta. Think of Walking Dead Social as FarmVille, but for people who like fighting zombies.

AMC tells us that the social game is most popular in North America, South America and Europe. While the game mostly exists in its own universe, fans who play the game will get to know the origins of the little girl Rick meets at the opening of the series pilot.

The Walking Dead season 2 finale was the most-watched basic cable drama in history -- with more than 9 million viewers. The third season of the show will premiere on Oct. 14.
