In season 1 of TWD, I bet nobody guessed Daryl Dixon would get his own series

It feels like a betrayal if Daryl stays, he's out looking for Rick & answers for Maggie. He has Connie and Carol back home and the kids also. The only time it would seem okay for him to stay is after a reunion with everyone and if they had a ship at their will

My big thing is what about Judith and RJ he literally is the uncle/adopted father for them for me that should matter more then having him stay

Daryl story was supposed to find RICK. He helped the France enough already. He needs to go home. PLease.

They could've kept Quinn around for season 2 lol. Loved the scene where Daryl visited his grandfather's grave. Hope it gave his character some closure.

Daryl's not abandoning anyone. He washed up in their backyard. They asked him to escort them across the country in trade for access to a way home. He did that. They've known him a few weeks. Why is he suddenly endebted to them. Quin was the mystery daddy, not daryl. ... just my 2 cents on that.

We all know Darryl is staying. I just want him to reunite with Rick. THAT’S ALL I WANT.

Codron told Genet he wouldn't kill a child after she implied that, then when he's about to kill Daryl, he realizes that maybe he's on the wrong side and that there's more to Daryl since he was protecting Laurent. That's why he shot Genet's men; Codron had a crisis of conscience.

I loved this spin-off so much. The writers..the direction..the cinematography and the actors did a fantastic job, and of course Norman was amazing 👏 ❤️ Can't wait for season 2!!

Daryl staying makes zero sense in my brain. I beg someone explain how it makes sense, Daryl has never given up looking for Rick, spent SO long looking for him, just for him to give up when he finds a girlfriend and step son? As far as Daryl is aware, the nest is completely safe and protected. Meaning Issa and Laurent are safe. However, Daryl has no idea what its like back home, is Carol actually alright? Is he not worried about what she said on the phone about someone being back? He even shows concern when on the phone to Carol, asking twice if shes actually OK. What about RJ and Judith? Does he not worry for them? Does he not care to see them again? Surely going back home would make the most sense for his character, it's not like he can NEVER get to France again, he could manage it if he tried. We're expected to believe that Daryl Dixon of all people is just going to abandon everyone and just hope they're ok. Writers on these shows sometimes confuse me massively.

I will forever and always absolutely love Carol. To see her go from meek and abused to strong and fearless was everything

I hate that Issa made him feel bad for wanting to go back home. If anyone would be abandoned, it would be Judith, RJ, Michonne and Carol. Those are his people. Laurent will be fine without him.

When that Zombie killed the other zombies m, that was awesome. Like how has no one thought to do that before? Jenet isn’t trying to save humanity, she wants to control it. If Laurent didn’t show up, Daryl would have left and regretted for the rest of his life. AMC did such a great job with this spin-off. I like it almost as much as TWD.

Carol absolutely did not mean Rick and Michonne came back because she would not have waited a minute into the call to bring that up. The guy who didn't kill Daryl for killing his brother, has the pocket watch with him that has the picture of the nest in it and that has to be resolved so Daryl is going to have to go back to the castle to defend it against Janae. Carol will find her way to France. It's possible Morgan came back because Fear The Walking Dead may end up back in Virginia

I have to say that I am so glad that they DID honor the dead of Operation Overlord. Men died on that beach in the thousands. It was horrible. I have some sense of it, because in my own family, my great uncle died aboard the USS Lexington during the Battle of the Coral sea, and I remember my great grandparents telling me about it. My grandmother never forgot the pain of losing her younger brother. My partner lost her own brother (USMC) in Korea. War is a horrible thing, it is barbarism beyond cruelty. The echoes of World War II resound even today. Sadly, far too many people today have forgotten, or never knew the pain of those days. There are those who deny the Holocaust. Many are actually WELCOMING the extremism and totalitarianism espoused by some in our governments, American AND European! We must stop, look backward at what such beliefs wrought THEN... to avoid falling into the pain and agony beginning to regrow NOW.

I don't understand why Daryl wasn't just like "bro, what are you talking about, I didn't kill your brother."

My theory: season 2 is already said to take place in the perspective of Carol. It seems from the new trailer the first 2-3 episodes will follow her trying to get to France, while the later part seems to be her finding him. We know by leaked photos Carol does eventually get to France, so some aspect of Season 2 will be set after the end of Season 1. Likely the first 3 episodes is carol getting to France, episodes 4-5 is carol finding Daryl and the last episode is Carol, Daryl and Laurent deciding to kick Genet from her leadership. For a guess on Season 3 I think it’ll start off with Daryl and Carol killing Genet and maybe Daryl finding a ship back to America. We could see season 3s episodes 1-2 being the civil war against Genet, episode 3 being Daryl and Carol finding the ship back to America, episode 4-5 following Daryl and Carol traveling back to America and possibly making a quick pit stop in either Wales or Ireland. Episode 6 could be Daryl and Carol coming back to America and then running into Rick where the next TV show spin off takes place. Just my theory but what do you guys think?

Solid recap and theories. My mind is still trying to wrap around the whole season. They really created something here. It was amazing.

I liked the show but was disappointed it didn’t show the fast aggressive walkers it teased about. I am glad Carol is coming back because she is one of my favorite characters.

Great episode, but I wondered why Daryl never corrected Cordon when he accused Daryl of killing his brother?🤷🏾‍♀️ It was the young French woman, Maribelle that killed Codron's brother. Loved seeing Carol at the end!😎💕

Leaving Laurent behind would be the best thing for Daryl. People forget it's because of that little shyt that they got captured and nearly killed. Keep him around, and you run the risk of him doing it again. Screw that effing kid. End the Laurent storyline and move on to something else.

Im really enjoying these new original stories they telling, I feel like they doing better now they don’t have to adapt from the main comic anymore

The ending with Carol retrieving Daryl's motorcycle was a flashback .... Carol is ON THE BOAT !!!! 😏

I feel like the show will end with Daryl and Carol bringing Laurent back to America for sure.

Say what you will about dead city but at least it didn’t kill off any of it’s main characters in the first season! Quinn could have been a compelling necessary evil next season but it seems like there giving that role to codron instead! Looks like we’ll see carol kill all those other guys in Maine next season I bet she’ll just leave that biker guy to die I mean he did ruin a mustang that’s in good shape in apocalypse! So it seems losang was student who fell in love with France in 90’s and stayed there for about a decade or more before the apocalypse! Also a little more Daryl back story

Funny how relatively sparse the zombie presence seemed to be in so much of the French countryside and Paris. They apparently hang out en masse on the beaches of Normandy instead.

Love your recaps man, great job as always.

I don’t want Daryl to stay. I want him to go back to America.

Daryl is a fucking menace with his mace and it’s so badass

This whole series was very refreshing

Omg I’ve never been this early Nicely worked video coverage man. Great video. Thanks for covering Daryl.☺️

All I know is this show brings back great memories of what the show used to be in 1rst season of the walking dead, maybe better. Love this new Daryl. I wish he was stronger in the game though. So glad to see carol .

My Theory: They are gonna stretch it out like the original series. This is gonna involve more thin sub-plots, random bad decisions, and slow pacing.

You can tell that Carol's scene was filmed in France by the painted lines on the road. So, it seems that the entire production team is in France and it only makes sense to have Melissa McBride's character travel there in the plot.

What a great ending, I'm wondering if Colderan may end up being a pretty good guy, a lot like Daryll. I see the connection with his brother and Merle with Daryll. I noticed the similarities when Calderon put him s brother down reminded me of Merle. I was thinking the same thing about who came back was not someone but Ezekiels cancer. As I said before, he's not the second coming of Christ. He's a savior of mankind, not the return of Jesus, that would be stupid. Messiah means savior, she didn't say he was the return of Christ but a savior of mankind. That's a bad take

Give Carol her own show for one season then have them meet up for a shared second season.

i think carol is on that boat coming towards Daryl at the end.

Codron still has good in him underneath it all. When he looked into the eyes of the kid God spoke to him and he realized just how important it is to keep the child alive. The future of humanity depends on it. So he blasted the bad guys instead.

Ready to see carrol save Daryl from a dramatic scene 😂😂

i thought its the best product the walking dead has released since mid season 9, and season 6 of twd. it was really refreshing. the cinematography and the sets / locations they used were gorgeous. added to it a lot, seeing iconic french locations was awesome, in america we never see the famous landmarks, and when we do its cgi. the characters and world they made was also great, i was very impressed

When Daryl picked up the head I was thinking "throw it at that bitch" and he did it 😂

I love this episode but I'm tired of these hard head as kids 😂😅 they do not listen... I couldn't tell if it was day dreaming when the lol messiah was yelling his name with all them zombies closing in on him. And where the hell all them zombies spawn from 😂😅

It is so cool to see Daryl walk the same pathes I walked when I went to Normandy. I really like this show ❤❤

This is amazing! ❣

I thought it was great. There's so much I loved about it but I was let down they didn't connect it to the CRM. Also the after credit scene from World Beyond made me think we were going to find out the origins of the virus and how this all started. Regardless I thought all the characters were well done even the side characters we're very well written

I really hope he doesn’t stay in France that would be stupid and make no sense at all

I’ve really enjoyed these episodes. But am I the only one that finds Laurent and his aunt annoying? I hope Daryl goes back to America.

if all they need is cool locations, why not set a season in disneyworld. who doesn't want to see the dead wandering around adventureland?

This is the first time I have enjoyed the walking dead in a long time. All shows included

Daryls home never was in France

The idea Daryl been more of a father is really weird being as tho they barely know each other it was incredibly a heavy responsibility to put on someone that you barely know just cause he wasn’t a horrible man and just so happened to be a nice one that helped like that doesn’t make him that lil boys father figure lol half the stuff Daryl taught him was literally just for his survival and not cause he loves him he’s a good man so of course he cares for a lil child and don’t wanna see a kid hurt lol I just think that was a lil too far with the putting the father roll on Daryl like that and quiet frankly unfair lol he would actually be repeating the cycle of he abandoned his ACTUAL family back home in America not if he leave a child in France that he so happened to help and barely even knows lol

Quinn sacrificed himself for Isabelle and Laurent. That's understandable. Enlisting into the military to fight for a country you have zero ties to makes no sense.

I do NOT wanna lose the french. It's the best thing about the show so far. anyone else?

When you run out of ideas, send your characters to another country

I wonder if Daryl and rick grandfathers knew each other since they both fought in the war.

Nice spin-offs we need more of them.👍

We do not really know much about Codron, other than he had a brother and some goons and that they were probably not saints. Prior to Daryl arriving they also respected and left the nuns alone. He did lose his brother and went into a rage, but spent a considerable amount of time "hunting" down Daryl. I think its fair to assume there could be a thousand reasons why he did not want to kill him at that moment and had a change of heart. Realising that Daryl is not a bad person.. his brother could have instigated whatever got him called.. etc etc. Codron losing his brother was also a nice throwback to Daryl and Merle in the beginning. The two pairs could resemble eachother quite well. I hope Codron gets a chance to live in season 2.

The fact by not leaving lunte he's leaving Judith

its crazy how it went from daryl searching for rick to rick will search for daryl cuz bro got in a whole nother dimention or smth he forgot the cause he came there for

Norman in Normandy! LOVED IT!!!

Like to pay respects to the pigeon man. 😔

We need RICK and DARRYL back that’s the real fire 🔥

Carol said if you’re lying , i wont be back! Lol classic Schwarzenegger Joke. I always say carol goes into Terminator mode in the walking dead. Funny they have her that line 😂

I found you recently. You're a breath of fresh air amongst the TWD clickbait clowns. Keep up the good work!

I want to know how the kid caught up to Daryl? He traveled night and day, and exactly the time that Daryl was heading to the boat, Laurent comes..WTH

My theory of how all the shows will connect is a World War I think. In Dead City they talked about a “Clash of Civilizations”, I also think it was mentioned in the main show too. But we also seen so many communities along the way. They show us this new zombie experiment which can turn them into super zombies. France seems strong but also don’t forget the CRM! The CRM also have the same type of thinking like the French but they seem more dead ass about it. Then you have Negan that is leading that group in New York. Idk but I noticed the big figures in the main show are being separated and they have their own like big problems like someone always wants control. They seem to resolve it or whatever. They did mention something about the characters will be put in situations like never before. So maybe it’s just what I would want to see lol. But I hope it ends like where they all connect in a big war. The French have the super zombies, Negan has the power of using the zombies for resources, The CRM in World Beyond and they do Genocide and have no issue with doing it, I am still working on FTWD but there are talks about PADRE. I’m so excited because also at the end of the main show, Michonne looks like she’s heading towards a horde or army. Why would they show us that. It makes me think of all the reasons. I’m so excited!

I have feelings they tryna build TWD for the future with these character : - Judith - RJ - Hershel - Ginny (from Dead City) - Laurent (from Daryl Dixon) - (new kid character in Rick spinoff later)

cadron didnt kill him because hes wearing a varient of ricks murder jacket and ricks spirit lives in it, thus cadron saves daryl.

They started a series and just don’t know when to give tf up on it I can’t believe y’all like the walking dead universe like this

The runners attacking the walking before it turned might be how the virus spreads and becomes the dominant strain.

If you pause this video @ 2:28 and look at the map. Something interesting there. The map doesn't stop at "The Nest" in Le Harve; could some of season 2 or future seasons move to the UK and Ireland?

I also hoped we could get some information on the virus because in season one of the main series the guy at the cdc said that France was closest to a cure.

I can't remember a thing about Dead City. This series sticks.

Daryl with a bunch of low budget French actors (unknown actors) keeps costs down some. It came back could be Carol’s cancer she was treated for before the show.

We all know how Carol feels and what she does when Daryl misses a lunch date!!!😂

I .oved him finding his grandfathers grave Very emotional for me and many others

Morgan and daryl are vastly different characters but when Morgan left I understood why caring for people and then losing them damages him so he felt that he had to leave and I always respected that more than once he thought about going back , daryl on the other I can’t objectively believe daryl would say “f” America ,”f” my old life and oh yea and “f” my search for Rick

If it wasn’t for my investment in Darryl’s character, I would have quit this show after 2 episodes. Very unimpressed. Hope the next one is better.

I l9ved this . Watched it 3 times with mates.

Codron realized he was the bad guy… he promised his mother he would protect his brother. No doubt his mother wasn’t evil. He went on this pursuit with his brother, after his mother died, and ended with him holding the gun on Daryl, realizing he had become the bad guy. That’s my thought anyway…

Sam Porter Bridges came a long way

Was a good series hyped for season 2, the ending was awesome happy to see carol and guessing well be seeing more of here season 2, and also my opinion on what carol meant by came back was Negan came back because the way dead city ended it would make sense that he came back, and it would be a great way to tie all the shows back together and end TWD but hope not liking these spin offs

Deus ex machina is often associated with bad writing... yet I am liking it here. Hope the new season comes soon.

I really enjoyed this season. I dont know how they go from completely destroying the original walking dead to these two good spinoffs.

My favorite part of this video is when he explains the ending.

It was mentioned that the boat made stops to England and Canada, so I imagine Daryl took Laurent with him, and the next season will take place in England.

As an American who has lived in Europe I agree, there are a lot of cool places to have the show based in, even if only for an episode or less to have a quick background shot. But I also hate when anyone says there aren’t the same things in America… yes there are awesome sights… different but still awesome. Imagine seeing the Grand Canyon or Mount Rushmore or the any of the unique American sights. It’s the same as any European sights… just makes it more relatable when you’ve been to the places they’re showing… something that doesn’t actually require on location filming.

I dont know all the names so bareover with me XD. Could it be that Genet is working with the people that kidnapped Rick, which i think is implied by moving walkers crosscountry, maybe the walkers shiped overseas are all type A like Rick, which is why i think it could make sense, but im bad at theoriezing XD, would be very intressted to se others take on my theory :D

She said rick which is gonna line up with the ones who live finale. She's quietly sobbing because michonne doesn't make it but rick does. Put it all together.

Very good series. Look forward to season 2.

The guy who was seeking his revenge for his brother's death, should have just left from the bad guys group but for some reason the writers had him go back and be a prisoner 😅

I haven’t seen these in any seasons 😮 where I should I found it even the episode of Rick I haven’t seen it yet where I can find it please 😫🙏

How do we know that it orginated in France? In season 1 or 2 of the walking dead, when they were in that bunker, it seemed like the US knew about the virus before it was a plague. I may be misremembering, but i dont think its been discussed or explained how it started, or from where. As we see France becoming infected, could be the same time around when the US was getting infected.

This is my sh** I love this series so dope and I love this version of the walkers And I see Carol is joining after all I'm locked in ...let's go 🔥🔥🔥

After watching the season finale of the ones that live, I think carol did say rick came back.

I just finished this show and it really is one of the best things for TWD, I really enjoyed it. The divine intervention theme and actually having God involved (even some other beliefs) adds a lot more depth and makes for interesting story points. Plus adding in the science experiments on the walkers should have been done seasons ago. I hope they make this more relevant and they find more science experiments happening around the world somehow. I also hope they get some kind of reunion with Rick and them while Rick's happy to know he's alive he also encourages him to go back/stay in France that's where he's needed. Then later on they end up meeting again to fight some bigger war, probably against experimented walkers or whatever. Things are finally happening in the show that should have been happening awhile ago.

This was a good series . I thought you would also do the waking dead: The ones who live, with Rick and Michonne.

I think in season to Darrells, going to stumble upon what actually happened because providers in the first place

Is there a reason it’s always cloudy now in the walking dead lol but only rains sometimes and hardly ever see a nice sunny day 😂

yayyyyy!!!
