The Walking Dead delivers another character-driven episode in "The Cell," which successfully delves deeper into the world of Negan and his cronies, even if its attempts to humanize a villain achieve somewhat mixed results.

3/5
It was very nearly as dark as episode one, but at least "The Cell" offered some rays of hope. Go to Full Review Kelly Lawler USA Today 11/07/2016
The Walking Dead spent its third episode physically and psychologically torturing yet another of its best and most beloved characters. And why did they do it? Because they had nothing else to do to push this tired and pointless Negan storyline along. Go to Full Review Stuart Jeffries Guardian 11/07/2016
It's as if us voyeurs are finally being called to account for our sick viewing habits. Go to Full Review Brandon Davis ComicBook.com 11/14/2019
The episode itself was nothing but darkness and humiliation for Daryl Dixon which kept it from being very enjoyable, though it matched the theme of the first eight episodes. Go to Full Review Kevin Fitzpatrick ScreenCrush 06/19/2018
...here seems like overwrought exposition without a central focus. Go to Full Review Dan Caffrey CBR 12/12/2017
Still, it's fairly normal for "The Walking Dead" to tread some of the same ground from time to time, and "The [C]ell" continues a solid beginning to a season that's not afraid to take its time. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
