All the Walking Dead: Season 8 Premiere Easter Eggs

For the show's 100th episode, it was all about going back to the start.

With The Walking Dead's 100th episode coinciding with its Season 8 premiere, "Mercy," EP/showrunner Scott Gimple and EP/director Greg Nicotero decided to throw in a few nods back to the very first episode, "Days Gone Bye."

The episode wasn't filled top to bottom with references, so as to not constantly pull viewers out of the story, but some of the opening sequences, in particular, were meant to pay tribute to the show's pilot. Check out the slideshow below to see all the little winks and nods contained in The Walking Dead's 100th episode.
