The Walking Dead: Stradivarius (2018)
This is why user reviews mean nothing.
I love how the episode is being brigaded. The haters are worried. But how can anyone take these ratings seriously? Yet they seem to. Circlejerk, meme kids, haters.
The Walking Dead: A New Beginning (2018)
Return to form!
Like a night an day change between Gimple and Kang. In one episode, it feels like what The Walking Dead was back at it's peak. Everything has meaning. Walkers are made a key theme. Characters have personality and can convey their thoughts naturally. The episode flowed well, there was nothing that felt tedious or overdone.
The Walking Dead: The Day Will Come When You Won't Be (2016)
Holy crap...
I was just watching this back, two years after airing. I have no issue in saying that this is the most disturbing 46 mins in TV history. It's sickening, it's grotesque but it's also absolutely harrowing for anyone invested in the characters of the show. The Walking Dead got a whole load of criticism for the content of this epispde, but that was the whole point, to convey the same effect of introducing Negan in the Comics, they had to go... far.
Really tough visually but perfect in the context of the show.
The Walking Dead: Last Day on Earth (2016)
But the ending! Come on now.
Yes. It was a poor way to end the episode/season. But there is no way in the world that this is a bad episode. Absolutely brilliant performances from the cast are one thing but the intensity and tension of the episode is really something. We slowly see the flat out arrogance and complacency of the group deteriorate at each time they are blocked in their path.
It ushered in Negan and The Saviors perfectly as a force to behold. Nobody wanted the ending we got but that should not overshadow how good the story was here. Combine it with S07E01 and it's stellar.
The Walking Dead: The Key (2018)
The best the show has been since S7E01
I think you had everything you could possibly want from the show in this episode. Good pacing, character development, storytelling and just a flat out fun brawl between the main and his nemesis. Great TV.

Disgusting bias on IMDb.
It's so hilariously transparent. As soon as the latest episode of The Walking Dead airs, it's rated a 1 out of 10 by the same number of people (give or take). But it's not just exclusive to this show, it's a trend everywhere on this site.
This is why IMDb is the worst place of reference for the quality of any given show. It's all agenda driven, circlejerk, armchair quarterback BS. If you read through the reviews, it's all the same. Little input, no attempt to discuss the show, just vitriol.
No matter how bad I think an episode of a show might be, I just can't imagine voting a 1 out of 10 unless it is absolutely abhorrently awful. And if it was that bad I would be more than happy to explain why I feel that way, this is what IMDb reviews lack. Those ratings are in no way a fair assessment of The Walking Dead nor many other shows the suffer the same brigade BS.
IMDb is a go to for a lot of people on the internet, purely based on it's name and reputation. But in recent times, the site has devolved into an echo chamber of kneejerk hate and meme based evaluation. Even the great Game Of Thrones suffered an amount of the same BS undeservedly.
How can you possibly have a site as a source of quality and recommendation when it is completely drowned in the the typical "Youtube" or "Twitter" analysis of users?
