The Walking Dead: Every Season 3 Episode Ranked Worst To Best
3. Made To Suffer
Following on from Glenn and Maggie's kidnapping and subsequent torture, Made to Suffer follows Rick, Daryl, Michonne and former prisoner Oscar as they race into Woodbury to save their friends.
A great hour of almost non-stop action, the mid-season finale is both bleak and rewarding, allowing Michonne to come to bloody blows with The Governor whilst Daryl gets reunited with his brother after being captured by The Governor's forces.
The only (minor) flaw with the episode is the way it attempts to introduce Tyreese and Sasha amongst the carnage, but even so the battle sequences, Michonne and The Governor's horrific clash and Glenn and Maggie's rescue makes it an undisputed masterclass of violent entertainment.
Whilst less grounded in the gritty reality of its previous two seasons, Made to Suffer signalled an exciting new era for The Walking Dead - one that was as bloody as it was uncompromising, and as harrowing as it was refreshingly over-the-top.
