By season 7, most series begin to lose steam or lose their identity, but The Walking Dead somehow feels as fresh, thrilling, dramatic, and exciting as it did in its early days, if not more so. The showrunners are pushing the envelope the right way, and they can get away with showing us the most disgusting, disturbing things imaginable because after seven years, frankly, they’ve earned it.

All in all, not a great episode, but a savage and a useful one. Read full review

It was miserable, and tedious, and made me feel bad. Not in an emotionally compelling way, just in a “I could be watching something of value” way. Read full review

No joke, the season seven premiere was quite possibly the best, most emotionally thrilling episode of any tv show I have ever seen in my life. From beginning to end, it was an emotional roller coaster.

Finally! Rick's people found a villain probably stronger than the whole group. This season looks promising and intriguing. Let's hope that it can improve the ratings of the series because we all know that the ratings went down with season six.

With the season over i can finally give my review
This season has been average at best, with the finale being one of the best episodes i've ever watched on tv, but there were episodes that i are probably the worst episodes i've seen on tv

The premiere and finale were full of tension and and action all over the episode and it made them the best thing this season, everywhere other episode relied on Jeffrey Dean Morgan's outstanding performance as Negan.
I understand what they set up, and i really appreciate it, but they should have found a more entertaining way to do so… Expand

The first episode of season 7 is an unrelentingly bleak assault of torture, pain, and gore. Characters are taken out in gratuitously brutal fashion. The new baddie struts around menacingly and soliloquies about how he's not to be messed with. Rick is reduced to a blubbering mess. AnotherThe first episode of season 7 is an unrelentingly bleak assault of torture, pain, and gore. Characters are taken out in gratuitously brutal fashion. The new baddie struts around menacingly and soliloquies about how he's not to be messed with. Rick is reduced to a blubbering mess. Another season, another reset where the group finds they have to start all over again. The message of the show should be crystal clear by now: there is no hope. So keep watching if you enjoy misery.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The season 7 was just a excuse to extend the entire plot. There's nothing new in a few chapters; different points of view that do not tell anything interesting.
I understand that we need to understand Negan's environment but you can tell more than that in a single episode. I thought the war against Negan would end in this season but they want to take another one to extend the story.
Anyway they know how to generate expectations on the first and last episode, I hope the next season will be better.… Expand

Watch every season up to now. Love every season 1-6. Hated this season, 7. They must have changed the writers. Opener was great for the high points, but it was already starting the drag.

They must have changed the writers. Opener was great for the high points, but it was already starting the drag. The writers then decided to show us for 7 more episodes how badly they can write monotonous plots that misplaces how every one of the main characters normally acts. Then, you add on how many mistakes each one of them, really mean, each and every one of the main characters making mistakes that are completely out of character for them. Then, somewhere in the middle, Rick wakes up and decides he he was wrong. I will be that if there was another half season of this, whoever are the writers should just be banned from Hollywood. Better yet, they should go back to the film school they went to and ask for a refund. It's almost like they went to film school and learn how to write the same thing in 100 different ways.

BY FAR, the worse of the season. I hope the producers goes back to the original writers. If not, way to go for killing a great series.… Expand
