The Walking Dead Season 7: 6 Ups And 3 Downs From 'The Well'

3. The Humour

It's not often that you can say The Walking Dead is funny. Almost never, in fact. This is a show that doesn't even attempt humour, much less pull it off.

Maybe that's why the comedy in The Well stands out so much, but it's also because it's genuinely well-pitched and humorous. It's the funniest The Walking Dead has ever been, and after last week boy was the levity needed.

As already mentioned, Morgan got a couple of killer lines this week, especially when taking Carol to meet the King for the first time. Ezekiel himself gets in on the act, mostly through his over-the-top theatrical nature, and there's a real sense of quirkiness to the Kingdom that helps carry the humour.

However, it'd be remiss not to mention the episode's - and by default now the show's - chief source of comic relief: Jerry. Ezekiel's right hand man and the internet's new favourite Walking Dead character/meme, he doesn't really get to do an awful lot. What he does get to do, though, is stand there and crack jokes and puns whenever they're needed (and even when not).
