Oh deer! The internet reacts to The Walking Dead season 7's terrible CGI Bambi

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? 

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

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

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

Eeeny meeny miney...doe

*Insert terrible deer pun here* 

What did you think about CGI Deer-gate? Let us know in the comments.

The Walking Dead season 7 airs every Sunday on AMC in the US and every Monday on Sky Atlantic in the UK.
