Daryl Dixon show was surprisingly great, this looks better
I never left. Seen everything since 2010, day 1 lol.I slowly quit after Rick left. This however looks decent enough to at least give it a try.
Some awesome scenes in that trailer. Plus Terry O'Quinn is an awesome actor too.

Wouldn't have it any other way. I love this shovelwareThey wrote Rick off the show without killing him? That’s some serious long-term dedication to producing shovelware.
Ah, cool. Being a limited series with what looks like a big budget it has some potential.Wouldn't have it any other way. I love this shovelware
The actor did the show for 9 years straight and needed a break. They were originally going to make a trilogy of movies to conclude his story, but instead turned it into a 8 episode series. Been waiting forever to see the end of his story
Was the Daryl show decent then? I like many others dropped of the show not long after Rick left. Do I need to finish the walking dead before any of this stuff?Wouldn't have it any other way. I love this shovelware

Daryl show was straight up awesome to me.Was the Daryl show decent then? I like many others dropped of the show not long after Rick left. Do I need to finish the walking dead before any of this stuff?
Cool thanks. I'll stick it on the watch list.Daryl show was straight up awesome to me.
It would help but daryl dixon is pretty stand alone. of course you'll miss out on a few things but overall its fine
This series will ever end, will it?

If it helps, the creative lead of the worst seasons (that quickly declined in quality) left (thank goodness). This video breaks down the issue with why Walking Dead quickly declined under the leadership of Scott Gimple:It began a gradual decline after an amazing first season and became near unbearable around Season 6/7.

He had an episodic storytelling style that is known as 'Boomerang storytelling'
As an example, basically, here's 5 characters:
1. Rick
2. Daryl
3. Glenn
4. Michonne
5. Carl
Episode 1, you'd get a Rick-centric episode, episode 2 Daryl-only, episode 3 Glenn-only, etc. By the time you reached episode 6, which would be over a month later, you finally would boomerang back to Rick's storyline from episode 1. The audience would slowly lose interest because one storyline would take way too long to finish and the viewers might even forget and ask 'wait, what was going on with Rick again?' by the time an episode about him came back around.
Another problem with this style of storytelling is that it also made the episodes feel much slower because you're only following what that singlular character/group is doing, even when they're basically doing nothing much at all.
They kept this style of storytelling up until the final 2-ish seasons and it annoyed the shit out of me and I'm sure it probably annoyed others here too.
Thankfully, Scott Gimple is gone, they've stopped doing that, and instead they decided to just do character-centric spin-offs and have also shortened the episode count to streaming style (between 6-10 episodes) so that they don't run into this problem. I enjoyed the Daryl spin-off much better due to this.
This might not sell you, but I think the Walking Dead Franchise is in a much, much better place than the 'limbo feeling' it was in near the end of the original series.
Did you ever watch the interview between Jon and Sarah how that went down?It still pisses me off how good this franchise could've been if AMC didn't give Darabont the boot. It began a gradual decline after an amazing first season and became near unbearable around Season 6/7.

It is worth a watch.
It’s just like playing final fantasy games in 2024… how many times yall gonna play the same game. Final fantasy … 16… ff7 remake… rebirth… final fantasy online.. lmaoHow can anyone still watch this garbage show and all it's spinoffs... it's beyond me.
It’s good man. No point in spoiling if you’re gonna watch itWtf? Give me a spoiler covered snyopsis for the sake of discussion. I am at work and will check back in a lil bit.
The funniest thing about that self immolation video is the cop that kept pointing a gun at a clearly dead guy who's burned to a crisp.
I did think one particular choice he made was unnecessary and stupid.
