Oh dear, oh deer. The Walking Dead season 7 has been trudging along for some time now but it’s hit new depths with this week’s episode: namely, that CGI deer. What were they thinking? Who signed off on that? How many deer puns can I make? Maybe we’ll never know, but the internet had a whole lot of fun doing what it does best: poking fun at terrible special effects.

Did you hear the one about the price of the CGI venison? It was a little dear.

The Walking Deer-d, anyone? 

People are saying the deer from last nights episode is CGI, but I don't see it??🤔#TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/4QARCFapdUMarch 7, 2017

No animals were harmed in the making of this episode. But my eyeballs were. 

That CGI deer in tonight's #TheWalkingDead though. pic.twitter.com/CEIg0PuICIMarch 7, 2017

Were they blind when they superimposed that? I've no eyed deer. 

Did the walking dead go back to season one funding with CGI, Jesus that deer... #thewalkingdeaduk #TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/9diAA4z9wqMarch 6, 2017

I’m not exactly FAWNing over this one. *cough*

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
