The Walking Dead: Every Season 5 Episode Ranked Worst To Best

16. Slabtown

Much like The Governor's solo outings in the previous season, Slabtown kicks off a slow and ultimately pointless subplot centred around a kidnapped Beth and her captors, who are set-up in a hospital under the rule of former cop Dawn Lerner.

Although Emily Kinney tries her best to capture Beth's growth as a character, the episode itself fails her at every turn, offering little to the overall plot and instantly cementing Dawn as one of the show's worst-ever characters in the process.

There are some moments that work toward redeeming it of its flaws, including the cliffhanger ending and the introduction of fan favourite Noah, but all told Slabtown is both a colossal waste of time and a dull dud that's seriously easy to forget.
