The Walking Dead Season 8: Predicting Who Lives And Who Dies

From the beaten wife of Season 1 to the Terminus-destroying badass of Season 5, and then the broken Carol of Season 7 to the woman who was forced to rejoin the fight at the end, Carol has been on one hell of a journey on the show.

She's one of the most well-developed characters, which means that her death would have a lot of meaning and, given her reluctance to fight, a real sense of tragedy.

On the flip side, I think there's still much more to do with Carol. She's been kept apart from the main group for so long that there are lots of potential relationships to be further explored, and Melissa McBride is consistently the show's star performer, so much so it'd be a huge shame to lose that.
