Throughout the first half of "The Walking Dead" Season 7, various complaints about the show has been widely popular on the internet. From fans complaining to critics criticizing the show, the list of negativities the show received is practically endless.

For the first episode of season 7, fans complained about the show's gore and brutality. Some fans even compared AMC's hit TV show to the terrorist group ISIS. On the other hand, the show also received criticism for the episodes that followed.

Some critics described season 7 episodes 2-6 to be "the most boring" episodes of the show to date. While some fans of the show would agree, some dedicated supporters would also claim otherwise.

Several critics from different websites are also expressing their dismay. With that said, "The Walking Dead" was reported to still be the most watched series on television. According to several polls, it is the most popular television show for viewers between the age 18-49.

Advertisers are also still keen on chasing after AMC's hit TV show despite the alleged decline on ratings. The sudden drop in ratings doesn't seem to faze showrunners and producers alike as it is still the most dominant show in TV.

On other news, "The Walking Dead" will be back on February for the latter part of its seventh season. Fans will be pleased to know that Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his group of survivors are gearing up to finally go against Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

During the final moments of season 6 episode 8, fans saw how Daryl (Norman Reedus) and the rest of the group's leaders reunited back at the Hilltop. This has given the fans a lot of hope going into Season 7B.

However, according to spoilers, Rick and co. are not the only one plotting against Negan. It was reported that some members of Negan's "Sanctuary" may also be planning some retribution.

Christine Evangelista who plays Sherry on the show recently revealed on an interview with Yahoo that Sherry only married Negan to keep herself and Dwight alive. However, this does not mean that her character is completely under Negan's rule. Evangelista said in the interview, "She's always plotting a next move. She's very strong, she's very determined."

This could potentially mean that Sherry was the one who helped Daryl escape, and this was her first move against Negan. If this is the case, Sherry could also be the one to help free Eugene on the later part of season 7.
