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.

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