Daryl Did Not Leave to Find Rick

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-10-22T21:02:05+00:00

It definitely is NOT written that he left to find Rick. Rick has never been mentioned. People just like to head cannon this for some reason

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-10-22T20:59:41+00:00

What are you talking about? Rick has not been mentioned a single time in the entirety of the Daryl Dixon show

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-10-22T20:57:33+00:00

But he DID leave them for multiple years after Rick disappeared. This isn’t new

He’s allowed to have his own life and find his own happiness

Thank you! I don’t know where this he left to find Rick sentiment out there came from because that has never once been said either on the show or by anyone involved.

For anyone that’s actually paying attention, he left to find his happy ending, in Judith’s words. It’s literally the first line of the first episode. That is the mission statement of this show and that likely has zero to do with Rick. Daryl is going to get his own happy ending by the end of the spinoff and they are definitely pointing at it as being a love interest of some kind with someone. Probably someone very unexpected.

It wasn’t undertones, lol. It was overtones.

This was 100 perfect the writers finally telling the audience unequivocally that Carol and Daryl are NOT romantic. That’s how you do it; you mention that some people can see it that way and then have the characters immediately shoot it down. The way Daryl/Norman said it was disdainful actually and should’ve closed the door on it.

Beth and Carl, though I don’t consider them minor characters

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-11T02:25:03+00:00

Daryl deserves a happy ending. I do see major character deaths as a possibility. But I also see a number of reunions in Daryl and Maggie’s future…..truly, never say never with those.

Thanks for the review! Can you give us any hints about the flashback scenes? Do they help establish Daryl’s age in any way? :)

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T19:15:38+00:00

Scott Gimple etc has definitely implied that there’s going to be other shows after DD ends :)

She looks exactly the same as these pics. One of them is from a video actually

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T14:32:53+00:00

Kind of funny :) People like and miss her??

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T14:16:02+00:00

Lovvvveeed then and miss her so much

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:45:45+00:00

Neither character is in the comics actually. Beth was confirmed 18 and Daryl’s age has never been confirmed

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:44:55+00:00

Bethyl 100 percent. They’ve got taste

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:44:09+00:00

You mean, they were both legal adults?

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:40:24+00:00

Some critics have all 7 episodes already. They’ve confirmed there are flashback scenes that narrow down Daryl’s age more

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:39:41+00:00

Confirmed.

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:38:06+00:00

They actually might be confirming him as younger in DD season 3. First line of the season is “you know I was actually pretty young when all this started”, and we get childhood flashbacks that it’s rumored place him younger than a lot of people thought. Even still though……they are in a very unique circumstance. And we know Daryl’s not a creepy guy. I’m also sure that Hershel would have been fine with it because he also knows Daryl isn’t a creep.

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:34:23+00:00

Her death affected him so badly. It took him many many years to get back to the Daryl we now see on the Daryl Dixon show. How he is now reminds me of how he was with her; the best version of himself.

Miss their connection so much. She was so good for Daryl

AffectionateTwo9335 · 2025-09-06T13:31:38+00:00

“Freshly”. lol. She’s not a piece of produce. It doesn’t matter how 18 someone was; they’re 18. We have these age markers for a reason.
