What started as a character created by the show runners turned out to be a character favorite throughout all tv shows i've watched, He's badass and i couldn't have predicted the impact Daryl Dixon would have on all of us. Years later he now has a spin-off and it's so good, The best TWD spin-off so far. The cinematic shots are great, The acting is great and for sure the plot is great. The show is based in France and i can tell this was a great move! The French actors are great and you can just tell the chemistry on set was good, Cause where watchers of the main tv show were used to the bad acting at the end of the show, It now has definitely revived itself. Props to the show writers of the Daryl Dixon spin-off and hopefully we get more of this!
The high ratings and glowing reviews, promoted to the top of the results, exemplify all that is wrong with current fandoms. The fans of an IP are so slavishly devoted to their parasocial relationship with a show/game/movie/book that any criticism of that property is felt as a personal attack and, as such, generates a vociferous defence.
Daryl Dixon, while being an interesting character, has been abused by the writing staff for years and finally pummelled into what we are given in this show: a bland, one-note character that looks the same, says the same old things and performs the same old actions.
To make the character stand out, he is surrounded by idiots acting in idiotic ways. We are expected to believe that these people have survived decades of a zombie apocalypse and then act in the dumbest ways imaginable.
Every egregiously stupid action performed is unnecessary - dozens of alternatives that hit the same story beats exist for each scenario, but in this show the writers have chosen the laziest, tropiest and most idiotic options that it boggles the mind as to how people watching aren't all suffering from vertigo from the constant eye-rolling.
And yet, the fandom laps it up. People wonder why so much dreck is produced these days, and it is because these fandoms accept existence over quality. We need to hold our entertainment to a higher standard and only then will there once again be a drive to produce quality art instead of just producing... something.
There was real potential for this show, a true chance to try something different and elevate the artform. With so many spinoffs it should have been possible to tell interesting stories in interesting ways, to generate some new styles and flavours to complement the existing offerings.
But instead we are given the same dull grey gruel and it is only delusion that makes some think they are eating a delectable ice cream sundae.

There has only been one episode of the series so far, but damn it was good, and I can see how the shows going to turn out. When this show was announced I thought it would be terrible, keying on how the original show The Walking Dead died down after about 7 seasons, (but did have a good end) and most spin offs were either okay or just bad. But maybe this is a new beginning for TWD universe. Norman Redus plays his role amazing, and I think that Daryl is just such an interesting character. The comics did not even have Daryl Dixon, so I hope this show tells us all we missed in The Walking Dead. I really can't wait for this show to unfold 😃!!
One of the best masterpiece created by both science and fiction keepin me on edge as it is packed with jaw dropping elements and reality of post eclipse of the walking dead ,The experience of best quality gives the best thrills and to want more of the next episodes ,The way peaple turn on themselves after a disaster gives a perfect reflection of reality as peaple tend to lose hope and panic making rational decisions as seen on the walking dead ,this must be one of the best fiction series yet to be made giving ana insight of what can happen after the appearance of the walking dead on the planet.
I was a bit weary coming into The Walking Dead: Darryl Dixon because of how hit or miss the original and Fear the Walking Dead have been over the last few seasons. Then I saw The Walking Dead: Dead City and got excited again because I really enjoyed that a lot more than I thought I would. The trailers for this didn't give away too much but just enough to get people excited. Like many have said this story is a lot like The Last of Us where a man has to travel with a really important kid across the country and dealing with a bunch of dangerous situations, both alive and dead. Darryl is still the star and biggest reason to watch but the new supporting characters are also interesting enough to tune in. Norman Reedus does such an excellent job as Darryl.

- TriviaThe first well-known building Daryl's caravan passed by is known as the Panthéon. Its original purpose was a church, till the French Revolution when it was converted to a Mausoleum which would commemorate France's National Heroes.
- GoofsEven though the series takes place more than a decade after the apocalypse there seems to be no end to sound petroleum. Characters readily operate cars and trucks in series even though gasoline will become compromised as it ages, usually with in a year or so. Further, as gasoline breaks down, it becomes gummy and also compromises engine components as well. So, running motor vehicles ten year plus into the zombie apocalypse are not happening.
