The Walking Dead best fan reactions to episode 812 The Key
By Sonya Iryna
The Walking Dead delivered an episode that many fans felt was the best one this season. Here are some of the best reactions from fans to The Key.
Fans have had mixed feelings about The Walking Dead for most of season 8. Some people felt that All Out War has been too drawn out and lacking action. And the death of Carl hit a huge portion of the fanbase extremely hard.
But The Walking Dead finally delivered an episode that gave fans some hope for the future. As Simon led The Saviors towards The Hilltop and Rick relentlessly pursued Negan fans were happy to see Rick with the kind of focus and determination he hasnโt showed in a long time.
The interplay between Rick and Negan is always great, and it was cathartic to finally see them face off one on one. For Team Family members it seemed like a little bit of justice was finally served when Rick set Lucille on fire. Not enough justice yet, but it was a start.
And fans were left wondering who Georgie is and how sheโs going to tie into Season 9. Is this the entrance of The Commonwealth? It could be. There was also a great surprise at the end as Negan showed up in a car being held at gunpoint by Jadis after he escaped from Rick. Jadis knocked him out and is driving him somewhere, possibly to The Hilltop to give Negan up to Rick. There was a lot going on and fans had some big reactions to all of it. Here are some of the best Twitter fan reactions:

I love that scene with Michonne taking Enidโs gun. It was a great throwback to season 3/4 when Rick took Carlโs. #TWD
