What to Know

Critics Consensus

"Omega" utilizes an unreliable narrator to flesh out the zombie skin-clad fanatic Alpha and succeeds at making her all the more unnerving, but some viewers may find the episode's flashback structure and side plots to be more laborious than revelatory.

C
As a means of establishing the character of Alpha, the harsh and violent new antagonist and leader of the Whisperers, "Omega" is bluntly effective. As an episode of The Walking Dead, it's pretty thin gruel. Go to Full Review Jeff Stone IndieWire Feb 19, 2019

While the turn is interesting, the actual execution is a little ham-fisted... But these are pretty minor quibbles about a story where empathy brings about character change. Go to Full Review Nick Romano Entertainment Weekly Feb 19, 2019
Through Lydia, the writers of The Walking Dead explore what happens when the brain of a young girl rewrites memories to protect the body. It's not the most well-executed exploration ever put to television, but it's an admirable effort. Go to Full Review Brian Richards Pajiba Mar 27, 2019
Samantha Morton is every bit as scary, powerful, and intimidating before her transformation into Alpha as she is afterward, and I look forward to seeing what happens next in this upcoming war. Go to Full Review Kevin Lever Tell-Tale TV Feb 21, 2019
3/5
Some episodes are about the build-up, and this is one of those. With the Whisperers descending upon Hilltop, this lays the groundwork needed to know what they are up against. At least Daryl's on top of things, watching everything closely. Go to Full Review Nick Venable CinemaBlend Feb 19, 2019
Though The Walking Dead has yet to showcase Alpha's über-maliciousness in the most current timeline, this episode seemed intent on driving home the idea that Alpha no longer conforms to anyone's standards but her own in the post-apocalypse. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
