“The Walking Dead” Season 8 finale rose week-to-week in the Nielsen ratings but still could not overcome the ratings declines that have plagued it for the past few seasons.
In the Live+Same Day numbers from Sunday, “The Walking Dead” averaged a 3.4 rating in adults 18-49 and 7.9 million viewers. That is up approximately 21% in the demo and 18% in total viewers versus last week. But that is also down 37% in the demo and 30% in total viewers from the Season 7 finale last year.
Season 8 of the series as a whole averaged a 3.4 and 7.8 million viewers in Live+Same Day, down from Season 7’s average approximately the same percentages as the Season 8 finale compared to the Season 7 finale.
Despite the fact the numbers are less than ideal for the show, it was nevertheless the highest-rated program of the night. The show also faced stiff competition on broadcast for the night, including ABC News’ interview with former FBI Director James Comey as well as the ACM Awards on CBS.

Like all of the great Shakespearean tragedies, “Romeo and Juliet” ends with a stage full of corpses. It takes the deaths of the titular lovers and of a handful of their closest allies to finally bring an end to the senseless feud between the Capulets and Montagues.
In the hours before his passing, this is how Carl hoped the years of conflict and chaos he had witnessed might end — that all the sickening violence and painful loss might be given meaning by a lasting cease-fire. This week’s episode reveals the text of the letters he composed on his deathbed for both his father and Negan, each missive insisting that the fighting must stop. Realizing that a dying boy’s wish may still count for something in a world seemingly without rules, Carl uses that bit of leverage to make one final appeal to the deadlocked leaders. He tells them that while he’s ready to move on to the next life, he doesn’t want his death to be in vain, and that a new peace would be the only fitting tribute to his memory.
It was a nice thought. But while Rick may be willing to consider talks, Negan concludes this week’s episode by swearing once and for all that reconciliation is no longer an option. “I wouldn’t accept your surrender if you came to me on your knees,” he growls. “No more talk.” There will be a victory and a defeat, of this he is certain, and the terms of that victory will be nothing short of complete extermination. He would rather watch his men destroy themselves to prove a point than concede a bit of ground — a vital reminder after a few episodes that showed his more sympathetic side that Negan is still a villain, and not the misunderstood figure he made himself out to be to Jadis.
Negan fancies himself a liberator in the garb of a thug, but his behavior after his long-awaited return to the Savior compound is unmistakably that of a brute. He’s got to get his house in order, and he wastes no time neutralizing the two threats to his authority that began percolating during his absence.
First order of business is Simon, who’s been fomenting insurrection for the past few episodes and doesn’t see Negan’s surprise return as any reason to cancel his coup. Negan has spies everywhere, so of course he finds out, and the comeuppance hits as hard as would be expected. A scoundrel to the very end, Simon pulls a sucker punch on Negan, a shrewd move from the writers that sets up the audience for a perverse catharsis when Negan strangles the life out him.
That leaves Dwight, a double agent in two sets of cross hairs. It turns out that Laura was the mystery passenger Negan scooped up at the close of last week’s episode, and she gladly tattled on Dwight. Negan could deal with him like he dealt with Simon — maybe bash in his skull, string him up as a zombified example and call it a day — but he instead wisely uses the new information to his advantage. Dwight has more use to him as a conduit through which he can knowingly feed the coalition faction false intelligence, such as the phony battle plan map that Negan tricks him into delivering. The moment he outlives his usefulness, Dwight’s life is almost assuredly over. But if the season finale next week deals a mortal blow to Negan, he might just escape in one piece.
Maddening as such an outcome would be, Gregory just might be poised to come out on top when the dust settles after this season’s finale. An expert at playing both sides against the middle, Gregory had allied himself both with Simon and Dwight. But now that Negan has come home to roost, Gregory will have to do what he does best and weasel out of a treacherous situation through deception, flattery, manipulation and a few well-placed back-stabbings. Regardless of whether Negan will hold him responsible for Dwight’s or Simon’s sins, Gregory is already formulating a contingency plan for his own backside.
By the final scene’s re-declaration of war, the episode has cleared a path for a free-for-all brawl next week, as the show wraps for the season. The unwritten rules of combat in “The Walking Dead” suggest that whoever holds the most hate in their hearts will emerge on top when it comes to blows, giving the steadfastly hateful Negan a seeming edge. But Rick is motivated by the lingering pain of his son’s death, a lasting hurt that seeps even deeper into his bones as he reads Carl’s letter.
Urban legends murmur about mothers who heave cars off their infants; the power of a parent cannot be underestimated. “The Walking Dead” has diverged from the comic books’ mythology enough times that adherence to the source material can’t be taken for granted, but trust that Rick will be out for blood when he and Negan meet next. They’ve set the terms of their rivalry, and in the fashion of the old Westerns, this town ain’t big enough for the two of ’em. Someone must die. It’s not what Carl would have wanted, but it’s all that’s left.
A Few Thoughts While We Survey the Wreckage:
Walking Dead Temporada 8 Online
• Eugene manages to give Rosita and Daryl the slip using the classic projectile vomit getaway — oldest trick in the book.
• There’s no way the writers could have known — the timeline doesn’t square up — but all the same, there’s no denying the similarities between Negan’s fight with Simon and the brawl for supremacy between Killmonger and T’Challa in “Black Panther.”
• How Aaron might factor into the greater fabric of the impending clash is anyone’s guess. His encounter with the Oceansiders in the woods feels a bit remote from the main plot, and in this week’s episode it plays more like a skipped beat in the steady escalation of the enmity between the Saviors and the coalition.
• Gabriel is still upright and alive, working in forced servitude at Eugene’s bullet factory, subsisting on garlic-flavored mashed slop and not doing well at all. A raid from coalition forces could mean his salvation, whether that’s a rescue or mercy kill.
Season 8, Episode 13, ‘Do Not Send Us Astray’
That ‘The Walking Dead’ has chosen to be a largely anticipatory TV show, building to a single climactic conflict at a slow-burn pace, has been agreeable to some and agonizing to others. Watch battleship 2012 full movie. But regardless of whether a viewer appreciates the buildup or just wants everyone to get to the darn fireworks factory, the climaxes in this model of storytelling must eventually create a catharsis so satisfying that it retroactively validates all the narrative heel dragging. A related proposition is also often true: The more irritated an audience is with the setup, the more satisfying the release. Maybe that’s what’s been happening.
This week’s episode brings several long-percolating situations to a head, making the kind of lasting, substantive changes that a show struggling to create a sense of permanence badly needs. Difficult as Carl’s death might have been, it left a bruise on Rick still present even in this episode, and the protracted nature of his pain makes it feel real. The characters will be sorting through the aftermath of this episode for weeks to come, because once again, it takes the death of a child to wake up the leathery-tough adults to all the collateral damage their war games have wrought.
After tentatively bonding with Carol and Morgan over the past few episodes, a surefire sign that the boy is doomed, Henry joins Carl in the juniors section of the afterlife this week. His death has a somewhat sounder karmic justification than the needless martyring of Grimes the younger — Henry stupidly opened the gate containing the prisoners in a poorly-thought-through effort to take revenge on his parents’ murderers. Of course the situation gets away from him, and of course he becomes a victim to the ensuing melee. But from beyond the veil, Henry looms larger to the surviving characters than ever, an undeniable symbol of the infectious rot of the soul that these inhumane times spread like plague.
Carol and Morgan have spent recent installments quietly concerned that violence has estranged Henry from his own humanity, represented here by Morgan’s disturbing hallucinations of a bleeding Gavin telling him, “You know what it is.” (We may safely presume that the spectral Gavin means this as a nebulous prophecy, and not in the hip-hop sense.) As everyone readies for a cataclysmic reckoning, Ezekiel and Carol both agree that arming Henry would be wrong, and that whatever grains of the boy’s innocence still remain must be preserved.

Morgan senses the futility of this enterprise, however. He knows what it is.
Rick knows what it is, too. He’s still stunned by his son’s sacrifice, unable to speak about Carl when Siddiq approaches him with a patient ear. It’s been so long since the show treated a character’s death with such gravity, that seeing Rick still hurting four episodes later is a welcome reprieve from the usual depravity-of-the-week showcase. The circumstances surrounding Carl and Henry’s respective demises may differ, but speaking generally, the same thing happened to both of them. They are ancillary losses, caught up in the brutal riptide of combat.

This episode couldn’t have ended anywhere but a graveyard, and sure enough, Carol and Rick gaze out over rows and rows of makeshift headstones in this week’s final moments. Alongside them stands Maggie, who can do nothing but lament “the cost,” a universal umbrella term for everything precious they’ve lost. (Shades of Tony Soprano grumbling, “How could this happen?” to an absent God as he sits by his comatose nephew.) Maggie wrestles with self-doubt even as she continues to lust for vengeance against Negan, afraid that staying the course may imperil more innocent lives and wondering how many more they can lose while still considering this war worth fighting.
Because it’s not slowing down any time soon. Having last been seen riding shotgun with a very angry Jadis, Negan is out of sight in this episode, and hardly out of mind. Simon’s ill-advised power grab among the Saviors has been built entirely around the shaky notion that everything he wants also happens to be what Negan would have wanted. Simon is a persuasive enough public speaker that this manipulation works, for the most part — though maybe it’s just that commanding handlebar mustache — but that will fall apart in undoubtedly violent fashion once Negan returns.
Simon cannot be entirely unaware of this, judging by the haste with which he accelerates the Savior counteroffensive. He knows enough to wield the power while he has it, and he won’t let go of it without leaving a few claw marks. The show’s “all out war” arc can’t last forever, and discord among the Saviors could be the resolution Rick’s coalition (and the writing staff) have been looking for.
“I don’t think it ends,” muses Carol in the episode’s most telling moment. Her words can expand to cover the entire show, from the war raging around them to the endless cycle of Pyrrhic victories and crushing defeats that has given the show’s entire run an orderly shape. This episode makes the heartening suggestion that she might not be correct. Whether it’s enemy infighting or a surge of energy on the home front, something has to end all the bloodshed soon. Scanning their private cemetery as if it were a D.I.Y. Arlington, they realize that it has to. They have long since given up too much.
A Few Thoughts While We Survey the Wreckage:
• It’s perversely reassuring that no matter how grave a predicament he’s in, Gregory can always be counted on to do the most annoying thing imaginable. Even when begging for his life from a child, he somehow manages not to shed his innate unpleasantness. If the showrunners really want to boost viewership numbers, all they would have to do is aggressively advertise a coming episode as an uncut, 53-minute Gregory death scene.
• The large-scale battle scenes wouldn’t be worth a hill of beans if they didn’t competently orchestrate the chaos, and fortunately, these sequences are among the season’s best directed. A combination of frenetic cutting, “Saving Private Ryan”-style hand-held camerawork and driving drum ’n’ bass music amount to a disorienting facsimile of war’s senselessness.
• Darryl and Tara share some heated words this week, their presence together highlighting just how extraneous they’ve become to the grander workings of the show this season. Daryl’s sharpshooting provides a convenient way out when the writers have worked themselves into a tactical corner, but it still feels as if “The Walking Dead” didn’t know what to do with them.
