The first half of The Walking Dead season 8 ending with a HUGE shocker when it is revealed to Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) that his son, Carl (Chandler Riggs), has been bitten by a walker.  In the past, and depending on the location of the bite, our survivors have been able to save their fellow group members though amputations, however, due to the location of this bite, it appears that this is the imminent end for Carl.
