The Walking Dead Season 7: Ranking The Probability Of 17 Major Character Deaths

TWD Season 7 Deaths

Since the Governor's time on the show ended, Tara has mostly coasted along on The Walking Dead - the kind of survivor who is likeable enough, but just seems to appear in fits and spurts, without contributing to the real meat of the storyline.

The best example of this is the Tara-centric episode from this season, Swear. It showed the Tara can be an entertaining character, and in particular showcased Alanna Masterson's comic sensibilities - something often lacking on this show. At the same time, it was also evident that she's nowhere near strong enough a character to carry an episode, and it remains to be seen how much she can offer going forwards.

Like with Aaron, there are better characters and bigger candidates for death, meaning she's in the middle of the pile and should just about be safe, unless they really need to thin the herd.

Chance Of Dying: 6/10
