The Walking Dead Season 8: 7 Ways To Win Back The Fans
6. Incredible Action
One of the biggest criticisms of Season 7 was the pace at which it plodded along. Too often, whole episodes did not sufficiently develop the plot enough to maintain interest.
It seemed as though this slow build was leading to an action-packed conclusion, and yet the finale was a little underwhelming. It felt as though that should have been the penultimate episode of the season, the last stage of the crescendo before things really got serious.
The battle scene at Alexandria was only a taster of the action that Season Eight should provide. The showrunners have guaranteed warfare and they must deliver on a big scale. Guns, explosions, walker, crossbows, Lucile, and tiger attacks, in all their destruction-bringing glory.
The Walking Dead has executed major action sequences beautifully in the past - the Season Two climax at the farm and the Season Five opener at Terminus shine as the best examples - so more incredible thrill rides of this nature will keep fans of all persuasions happy.
