Cattle Mutilation
Superstar
Now if we look at the episodes in terms of quality, based on IMDB ratings, season 8 averaged a 7.11 out of 10. S7 was 7.50. Season 1-6 were between 8.35 and 8.36.
Every episode up through s6e15 had an average rating of 7.2 and most were well into the 8 or higher range.
Well the last episode of s6 was only a 6.3. S7 produced three episodes at 7.0 or lower, including a by far series worst of 5.7 for the Tara-centric episode. S8 is where the shyt really hit the fan, eight of the first nine episodes were below a 7.0, only two episodes reached at least an 8.0. S8 alone had nearly double the # of sub-7.0 seasons (8) than all of the 7 previous seasons combined (5).
S8 is also the first season that failed to register at least one episode with a 9.0+ rating. S7 only managed that for the season premiere. We haven't had an elite tier episode of TWD in the last 31 episodes, that's over 25% of the show's run.

My man's jujitsu skills must have been outrageous.
