The Walking Dead: Sing Me a Song (2016)
Season 7, Episode 7
10/10
Excellent Set Up for Mid-season Finale
5 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Sing me a Song was easily one of the strongest episodes of season 7. The penultimate episode of 2016 contained a fair amount of action, a great deal of suspense, and a strong build up for the mid season finale next Sunday. I found myself on the edge of my seat for arguably the first time since the season premiere.

The episode had a strong emphasis on Negan and Carl as well as giving us a more in-depth look at the Sanctuary. Some of the scenes between Negan and Carl were riveting. I was curious to see if the show was going to follow the same story line of their relationship as it is in the comics. There was a lot of skepticism that Daryl might be taking on this role. It'll be highly interesting to see Negan and Carl's relationship develop in the upcoming episodes.

I was a little surprised we didn't see more of the Kingdom in this episode. Melissa McBride and Lennie James are easily the two best actors in the show.

I'm not sure this episode had to be a full 90 minutes. I prefer a build up to the lengthened episodes myself. Extended episodes have almost become the norm this season.

Overall this episode was filled with great content and strong dialogue. I now find myself heavily looking forward to the next episode for the first time since the season premiere.
