The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon boss explains Daryl and Carol's relationship

As a die-hard fan who has been following The Walking Dead since its inception, I am beyond excited for the return of Daryl and Carol’s journey in The Book of Carol! Their bond is one of the most captivating aspects of the series, and their spinoff promises to delve deeper into their relationship.


September has arrived, and with it comes the approach of “The Walking Dead”: the highly anticipated second season of “Daryl Dixon” and “The Book of Carol”! This season will see the return of Melissa McBride’s character, Carol Peletier, making her first appearance outside of the main series. The bond between Daryl and Carol is one of the most beloved relationships in the “Walking Dead” universe, and “The Book of Carol” promises to further explore their connection.

Daryl and Carol have been integral characters since the beginning of the series, much like Rick Grimes and Morgan Jones. Over the years, they’ve developed a strong bond that fans often refer to as “Caryl.” By season 10 episode “Diverged” of The Walking Dead, their relationship became a significant focus, setting the stage for a potential spinoff.

A significant number of viewers are hoping for a romantic connection between characters Daryl and Carol in the show, anticipating its development. Nevertheless, as stated by showrunner David Zabel, while there might be some chemistry between them, no romance has been established so far. David explained to SFX Magazine, “It would be simple and convenient to say they’re falling in love and becoming a couple, but I’ve always felt that would be a misstep, as it would seem like we were dipping into the same old tropes used on TV.”

As I navigated through the thrilling world of The Walking Dead game, I couldn’t help but sense a brewing connection between Daryl and his latest ally, Isabelle. She was among the first faces I encountered after my arrival in France, and ever since, we’ve been locked in a fierce alliance, battling together. It appears that this bond could potentially deepen into something more romantic, making our journey even more intriguing.

In simpler terms, Zabel stated that there are instances of tension, but also moments indicating shared interests, and a deeper bond appears to be forming. Norman and I discussed creating a complex, grown-up dynamic between two characters, a man and a woman, and observing where it leads. Essentially, we’re placing these unique, intriguing characters in the same storyline and watching how their interactions unfold.

“What happened in season one was that you could see a connection forming, for sure. We didn’t manufacture that but we left room for it. A lot of season two is about the development of that and where that relationship goes, and that little surrogate family of Isabelle, Daryl and Laurent.”

It’s clear that staying in France is not the ideal solution for Daryl, Isabelle, and Laurent. Going back to the United States doesn’t seem feasible either. Instead, the storyline unfolds as they journey to sunny Spain during the third season of the show. The series, titled “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” — The Book of Carol, premieres on September 29 on AMC.
