7/10
The best "spin off" or continuance from TWD universe so far
20 October 2023
I always like the Daryl character a lot. I think I liked him because he can convey a lot without having to actually speak, which as an introvert, too much talk is overwhelming. I always saw the character more as a lone wolf with a good heart who has a hard time connecting so having him have his own series seems to work well.

I liked: That he was alone and unafraid, that he has a potential love interest and that he's kicking butt in France. I like that the walkers are somehow advanced and evolved. I like the Character of Isabelle.

I didn't like: There seems to be a re-occurring theme of characters from TWD being pursued by bad guys with guns, who go onto some monologue about getting revenge for whatever reason and frankly I'm bored with it, there was an apocalypse that created zombies and still there are bad person leaders with disciples that are willing to sacrifice themselves for whoever that person is? And I'm so sick of the whole James Bond elaborate death's that our characters can get of easily. It's stupid at this point and I'm tired of our characters getting a lecture at gunpoint.

I don't even know why exactly the bad guys are after Daryl, I must have missed that one.

And finally, like most of the child actors that TWD have chosen, this on is annoying. I don't even like his name or how those with French accents pronounce it.

My enjoyment of how Norman Reedus plays the character is what keeps me going. The writing isn't that great, but it's better than the Maggie/Negan continuance and with the promise of the return of Carol, I'm giving this a 7 for now.
