Judge, Jury, Executioner Ratings & Reviews

I’m sorry brother.
Tom & Lorenzo
Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez
This wasn't a bad episode, but it was pretty much a Greatest Hits listing of all the things wrong with the scripting on this show.
Paste Magazine
Josh Jackson
Sometimes it doesn't take a horde of walkers to keep the show engaging. Sometimes the scariest thing to be faced with doesn't want to eat your brain; it just wants to challenge it.
Grantland
Andy Greenwald
The screen went to black, but the bad taste lingered; once again our supposed heroes were portrayed as being both unprepared and unlikable. The producers and Rick are in for the same rough lesson, I fear: bad decision-making has real consequences.
Newark Star-Ledger
Mark Maurer
"Judge, Jury and Executioner" was a talky episode done right - a nicely written morality tale aided by a deadline device.
TV Fanatic
Sean McKenna
This episode was certainly on the right path in continuing to snowball all of the most recent events towards something bigger.
Digital Spy
Morgan Jeffery
Looking at the positive, 'Judge, Jury, Executioner' is without doubt DeMunn's finest hour - he delivers a highly emotive performance and, thanks to the actor's natural charm, he manages to lecture the other characters without seeming stuffy or superior.

I were to meet the Walking Dead at a party, it would explain to me that those first 40 minutes were necessary in order for us to feel the true weight of Dale's... But at the same time, watching it felt like listening to your 2-year-old explain their day.
HitFix

Though I don't know if it all worked, it was still a step up from most of the earlier farm episodes.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
Using Carl to both resolve the episode's plot, and making him semi-responsible for Dale's death, has a satisfying neatness, and serves as a reminder that for all their talk, Rick and the group have no idea what impact their choices will make.
Wall Street Journal
Aaron Rutkoff
Dale enunciates today's Weighty Theme: "The world we knew is gone, but keeping our humanity - that's a choice." It's a speech he'll get to reprise ad nauseum in what still manages to be a tense and well-turned episode.
IGN Movies
Eric Goldman
And here we are, a week after the excellent "18 Miles Out" aired, and we get the especially dull "Judge, Jury, Executioner." Even a notable character death at the end couldn't do much to save this one.
TIME Magazine
Nate Rawlings
If TWD's producers got the memo about quicker pacing, they ignored it for last night's episode.
Screen Rant
Kevin Yeoman
Although much of the suspense for the rest of season 2 was lessened by a website faux pas earlier in the week, this episode will certainly have many fans talking about [it].
