What BollyAI Thinks

Season 8's All Out War arc against Negan's Saviors was the culmination of a storyline that had been building for two seasons. Critics gave it 65% on Rotten Tomatoes - the series' low point to that date. The battle sequences were technically accomplished but narratively repetitive, and the war's resolution disappointed audiences who had invested heavily in the Negan conflict. Carl Grimes' exit midseason was one of the most debated creative decisions in the show's history, with many fans and critics arguing it fundamentally compromised Rick's character motivation. The season confirmed that The Walking Dead's prestige television era was over, though it remained a significant cable property.

All Out War delivers action but the resolution disappoints; Carl's departure is a long shadow.
