The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Preview - Fandom Hybrid Podcast #251

#thewalkingdead #daryldixon #twduniverse In anticipation of the premiere of the new TWD series, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, AMC has released the first 10 minutes of the first episode and...we have questions. Daryl washes up on the shores of Marseille, France, and travels west across the bleak French countryside. His experience with walkers stateside does nothing to prepare him for what he encounters in his first run-in with the dead in France.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon premieres on September 10th on AMC (September 7 for AMC+ subscribers).

1
00:00:24,980 --> 00:00:27,660
What's up, hybrids?
Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:31,180
of the Phantom Hybrid Podcast.
This is Hanukkah and I'm here

3
00:00:31,180 --> 00:00:34,140
with Casey and Michelle and
we're doing something a little

4
00:00:34,140 --> 00:00:38,860
bit different.
Today AM C has released the 1st

5
00:00:38,860 --> 00:00:44,370
10 minutes of the new Daryl
Dixon Show and I just wanted to

6
00:00:44,370 --> 00:00:47,410
come on and talk to the girls
and find out what they think

7
00:00:47,410 --> 00:00:51,690
about this, this 1st 10 minutes.
Because I have, I have some

8
00:00:51,690 --> 00:00:55,050
commentary and I was like I
don't know if I can wait till

9
00:00:55,050 --> 00:01:00,210
September to say some of this
stuff because I might not think

10
00:01:00,210 --> 00:01:07,810
about it in September.
But Daryl Dixon, So they give,

11
00:01:07,850 --> 00:01:10,090
they've given us the 1st 10
minutes of the show.

12
00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:12,970
A lot of it.
I think when I won't say a lot

13
00:01:12,970 --> 00:01:17,690
of it, but we've seen part,
yeah, of it, the whole walking

14
00:01:17,690 --> 00:01:19,850
across the countryside.
We've seen that in one of the

15
00:01:19,850 --> 00:01:22,370
teaser trailers.
There is a lot of stuff in here

16
00:01:22,370 --> 00:01:27,010
that we have not seen or that
hasn't been previously released.

17
00:01:27,010 --> 00:01:29,610
So it does give you some things
to think about.

18
00:01:29,610 --> 00:01:33,730
But okay, we're going to start
from the top because that's

19
00:01:33,730 --> 00:01:35,610
where my commentary started
coming in.

20
00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:38,940
And I was like, oh, I probably
should be recording this as a

21
00:01:38,940 --> 00:01:45,340
reaction.
But anyway, so we've seen the

22
00:01:45,340 --> 00:01:49,980
trailers where you see Daryl
floating on top of an overturned

23
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:53,700
boat, and this is how the show
starts with him in the middle of

24
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:56,580
the ocean.
First of all, I was like, see,

25
00:01:56,740 --> 00:02:02,860
it's a shame that the ocean is
so clean because people ain't

26
00:02:02,860 --> 00:02:05,250
there to fuck it up.
That was my first thought.

27
00:02:05,250 --> 00:02:07,570
I was like, oh, OK, so it's
going to be one of these kind.

28
00:02:09,410 --> 00:02:13,210
That ocean was blue.
It was beautiful.

29
00:02:13,530 --> 00:02:15,170
He's floating in the middle of
it.

30
00:02:15,170 --> 00:02:17,010
And the current takes him right
to the beach.

31
00:02:17,010 --> 00:02:21,050
So when he gets off the boat,
he's sitting there, he's just

32
00:02:21,050 --> 00:02:25,930
kind of looking around.
And then he sees a blue pail,

33
00:02:26,210 --> 00:02:28,290
kind of, you know, on on the
beach.

34
00:02:28,650 --> 00:02:36,970
He crawls from out the ocean to
this pail and the pail has water

35
00:02:36,970 --> 00:02:39,690
in it and he drinks the water
from the pail.

36
00:02:39,970 --> 00:02:42,970
I'm like, I'm like, fuck are
you.

37
00:02:43,010 --> 00:02:47,850
You had a whole ocean that you
was just in and you had to go

38
00:02:47,850 --> 00:02:51,050
get The Who, the, The Who knows
how long it's been sitting beach

39
00:02:51,050 --> 00:02:55,730
water in the pail to drink.
I was like, OK, we're.

40
00:02:55,930 --> 00:02:58,290
Not it was rain water.
Maybe it was rain water.

41
00:02:58,610 --> 00:03:00,130
You know it's better than salt
water.

42
00:03:00,590 --> 00:03:02,270
Yeah, cuz you can't do salt
water you.

43
00:03:02,390 --> 00:03:04,630
Drink salt water like that.
So.

44
00:03:04,910 --> 00:03:11,830
Maybe just rain water in the
middle of the tide and I'm just

45
00:03:11,830 --> 00:03:14,550
saying.
Or maybe because it was in the

46
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:16,310
bucket, the sun had enough time
to?

47
00:03:16,310 --> 00:03:22,350
Hit it and purify.
I can't.

48
00:03:22,430 --> 00:03:25,390
It's purifying water.
I can't.

49
00:03:26,270 --> 00:03:29,480
Yeah.
Well, the smart thing was to tie

50
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,600
yourself to the to the boat.
He did, yeah.

51
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,800
That's that's fantastic.
Yeah.

52
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,800
We still don't know, like,
right, how he found himself.

53
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,720
I'm sure we'll figure out why
and how but.

54
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,640
Yeah, but the other thing, you
were you.

55
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,680
Floating around didn't wake you
up, but you hitting that water

56
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,680
woke you up.
Right, that part.

57
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,540
It's probably unconscious, I
don't know.

58
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:55,300
But the other funny thing that
made me say okay we got to talk

59
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:58,300
about this trailer is because I
was looking when he fell into

60
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:02,220
the water, I was like, that is
probably the longest exposure to

61
00:04:02,220 --> 00:04:11,860
water Derek has had him. 15 Oh,
now you clean, clean with those

62
00:04:11,860 --> 00:04:16,870
salted water.
But I'm not going to go through

63
00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:18,870
the whole 10 minutes.
They were just, like I said,

64
00:04:18,870 --> 00:04:21,269
there were certain things that
just kind of grasped me.

65
00:04:22,190 --> 00:04:24,830
One of the things that we had
talked about just amongst

66
00:04:24,830 --> 00:04:29,390
ourselves, you know, one of the
things we've talked about in the

67
00:04:29,390 --> 00:04:33,990
shows is the fact that these
radios seem to have like long

68
00:04:33,990 --> 00:04:36,350
range powers.
But now we know he wasn't

69
00:04:36,350 --> 00:04:38,830
talking into a radio in the
trailers.

70
00:04:38,830 --> 00:04:43,670
He was actually speaking into a
recorder, which okay makes

71
00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:47,880
perfect sense.
You know that he he found on

72
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,240
this boat, this boat had been
abandoned.

73
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,600
He found a couple of supplies,
he found a a bottle of half

74
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,880
drunk water.
What was it that you said about

75
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,880
the water?
One of y'all said something

76
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,920
about the oh that was no, that
was Anthony.

77
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,760
Before we started recording, he
was like, did he not test to see

78
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,160
if that water was fresh or what
this like people were doing with

79
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,620
that water?
No you don't And and it's been

80
00:05:14,620 --> 00:05:19,580
in that bottle of very long long
it looks like long time.

81
00:05:19,780 --> 00:05:22,180
You know how when the when you
have water and then your kids be

82
00:05:22,180 --> 00:05:25,940
like, hey, let me get some.
And then look all cloudy out of

83
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:27,780
the back.
Wash Yes.

84
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:35,220
He drank back Wash, right?
Drunk it down too, right?

85
00:05:35,780 --> 00:05:39,660
But I think The funny thing
really was, so when he gets on

86
00:05:39,660 --> 00:05:43,430
this boat, he starts looking
around, oh, actually, before he

87
00:05:43,430 --> 00:05:46,710
gets to the boat, when he's
walking through whatever town he

88
00:05:46,710 --> 00:05:51,670
is in, which we later find out
maybe Marseille, he looks at a

89
00:05:51,670 --> 00:05:57,030
sign and the sign is in French
and he's just looking like like,

90
00:05:57,030 --> 00:06:00,430
how the hell what?
OK, And then when you see the

91
00:06:00,430 --> 00:06:04,470
scenery one, they did such an
amazing job with the scenery,

92
00:06:04,470 --> 00:06:07,310
with the city and the the, the
pier and the boats.

93
00:06:07,790 --> 00:06:13,050
I thought it looked so cool for
like to see somewhere totally

94
00:06:13,050 --> 00:06:15,690
different and.
How the effects of the Walker

95
00:06:15,690 --> 00:06:19,690
Apocalypse.
You know what it did to the

96
00:06:19,690 --> 00:06:23,170
city.
But when we see him and he, you

97
00:06:23,170 --> 00:06:26,410
know, he gets this, he gets the
stuff off the boat and he kind

98
00:06:26,410 --> 00:06:29,850
of leaves and he starts walking
through the countryside again,

99
00:06:30,090 --> 00:06:33,970
I'm struck by the complete lack
of walkers.

100
00:06:34,810 --> 00:06:40,250
Or anybody or anybody like and
I'm sure with and you.

101
00:06:40,330 --> 00:06:41,170
Know what?
You know what?

102
00:06:41,450 --> 00:06:44,650
What killed me with this?
Because once he got into the

103
00:06:45,090 --> 00:06:49,490
flower shop, nursery, whatever
he was in, nothing in your

104
00:06:49,490 --> 00:06:54,450
history with walkers would make
you think I'm okay and just make

105
00:06:54,450 --> 00:06:57,610
all this goddamn noise.
That's the other thing I had the

106
00:06:57,730 --> 00:07:03,320
issue with with history.
I would like Walker 101.

107
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,040
Have you been in France for so
long that you forgot that you're

108
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,480
supposed to check to see if any
dead are in the building?

109
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,680
Like who?
What did you do with Daryl

110
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,440
Dixon?
And because he was one of the

111
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,440
ones, that was when they went
into the supply, when they when

112
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,360
they were dormant.
He was one of the ones there.

113
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,640
So you know they'll they'll
they'll if there's no activity,

114
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,160
because you see ain't shit going
on in this damn town.

115
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,240
There's no noise, there's no
nothing.

116
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,520
So they going to lay dormant
until they hear noise and you

117
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:39,200
and then because shit overhead
trying to, I mean trying to find

118
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,840
you something to eat, smelling
this and opening that.

119
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,800
And not like the hands rising
up, I heard nothing.

120
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:53,370
When you stab the Walker.
The ground sizzled.

121
00:07:54,530 --> 00:08:02,370
Hold on, That's not.
That part that because I saw it

122
00:08:02,410 --> 00:08:07,210
may smoke, it's a little poof.
I was like, what in the fuck are

123
00:08:07,210 --> 00:08:10,090
we dealing with like?
Right about that, too, Variant

124
00:08:10,090 --> 00:08:11,770
Walkers.
I want to know what the fuck

125
00:08:11,890 --> 00:08:15,130
this shit is.
And it wasn't just the one,

126
00:08:15,130 --> 00:08:17,010
Walker.
It was all of.

127
00:08:17,130 --> 00:08:20,650
It was all of them, and that was
one that grabbed his arm.

128
00:08:21,390 --> 00:08:24,070
Burnt the mess out of his arm,
his skin.

129
00:08:24,270 --> 00:08:26,750
I was like.
And you know the first thing

130
00:08:26,750 --> 00:08:28,670
that came to my mind?
Yeah, cut his arm off.

131
00:08:30,110 --> 00:08:32,510
That's what I felt like he was
thinking when he sat there.

132
00:08:32,549 --> 00:08:33,950
He was just looking like he had
his hand.

133
00:08:34,549 --> 00:08:36,309
He had his head in his hands
like.

134
00:08:37,030 --> 00:08:38,470
I know.
And I'm thinking thinking I'm

135
00:08:38,470 --> 00:08:40,630
fucked.
And I'm thinking fear,

136
00:08:40,630 --> 00:08:45,310
Radiation.
Radiation walkers.

137
00:08:45,310 --> 00:08:47,070
Radiation walkers.
Gotta get away.

138
00:08:49,460 --> 00:08:54,820
Dollar in a regular building.
It didn't look like a lab.

139
00:08:54,820 --> 00:08:58,260
It looked like it might have
been an antique store or garage

140
00:08:58,260 --> 00:09:01,460
or something.
Why the fuck are your walkers

141
00:09:01,460 --> 00:09:04,380
burning?
Why are they like, why do they

142
00:09:04,380 --> 00:09:07,420
have acid?
Because, I mean, that's the only

143
00:09:07,420 --> 00:09:09,460
thing I can think of is it's
like acid.

144
00:09:10,940 --> 00:09:12,780
I'm.
I'm not the science person.

145
00:09:12,780 --> 00:09:17,500
Michelle explain that.
I can't explain it, I mean I

146
00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:22,080
have questions.
I have questions.

147
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,520
Is this from an experiment like
I don't know?

148
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,920
But.
It was all of them.

149
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,160
It was so.
And it is acid like I mean.

150
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,640
Did France get some acid rain we
ain't know about or did they try

151
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,400
to bomb that area?
But I mean if you.

152
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,120
The area doesn't look bombed, so
it doesn't look bombed like even

153
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,080
and it.
Look like they died from in

154
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,740
their shelter.
So they hit out because it looks

155
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:50,100
like that's where they were
living.

156
00:09:50,500 --> 00:09:53,620
So I don't know.
I don't know.

157
00:09:53,620 --> 00:09:58,100
But those walkers I was, I was
like when he walked in, first of

158
00:09:58,100 --> 00:10:01,900
all, he left the door open.
Yes, I know that there are.

159
00:10:02,260 --> 00:10:05,060
People like he ain't like he
brand new.

160
00:10:05,380 --> 00:10:07,980
He act like this his first day,
like he brand new.

161
00:10:09,060 --> 00:10:12,820
I was like, why are we leaving
the door open?

162
00:10:13,930 --> 00:10:16,490
And then why are we?
Why are we just all of a sudden

163
00:10:16,490 --> 00:10:19,890
going to the table and looking
up stuff instead of checking

164
00:10:19,890 --> 00:10:22,130
around to see what the fuck is
going on?

165
00:10:24,170 --> 00:10:26,690
I was like, is this Darrell this
or is this someone else?

166
00:10:27,010 --> 00:10:29,210
Because it's got.
To be somebody else, maybe.

167
00:10:29,530 --> 00:10:30,210
Maybe.
Well, no.

168
00:10:30,210 --> 00:10:32,370
He know who he is because he got
for recording.

169
00:10:32,650 --> 00:10:34,690
My name is Darrell Dixon.
I'm from the Commonwealth.

170
00:10:34,810 --> 00:10:36,530
Yeah, but they're different
writers.

171
00:10:36,690 --> 00:10:38,330
Look at me now.
I'm like, this is a different

172
00:10:38,330 --> 00:10:40,130
set of writers.
Maybe they forgot.

173
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:44,470
If they forgot, they don't need
to be right in the damn show

174
00:10:46,190 --> 00:10:47,670
because there are certain
things.

175
00:10:47,670 --> 00:10:50,590
You can't make you can't.
No, I know you scout out the

176
00:10:50,590 --> 00:10:52,510
area.
He didn't scout the area, maybe

177
00:10:52,510 --> 00:10:56,710
got relaxed from think thing.
He did mention Commonwealth, so

178
00:10:56,710 --> 00:10:58,790
maybe got relaxed from being in
the Commonwealth.

179
00:10:59,390 --> 00:11:00,030
I don't.
Know not.

180
00:11:00,190 --> 00:11:02,230
Make one of the most skilled
hunters.

181
00:11:02,860 --> 00:11:06,260
Fighters, strategists, all
these.

182
00:11:06,580 --> 00:11:09,580
Things I'm I'm trying to help
out but I'm I'm on your, I'm on

183
00:11:09,820 --> 00:11:12,460
your side.
I'm trying because he's in a

184
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:14,660
different fucking country.
He just can't decide.

185
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:17,780
But Walkers is fame no matter
where you go, right?

186
00:11:17,780 --> 00:11:20,700
And I know that you know why
you're walking the countryside

187
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:24,580
like we barely saw walkers.
I think I saw walkers when he

188
00:11:24,580 --> 00:11:26,460
was walking on the top of that
bridge.

189
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:30,460
You can see on the lower level
of that bridge you can see a few

190
00:11:30,460 --> 00:11:34,290
walkers walking around now he
kept to the high ground, so I

191
00:11:34,290 --> 00:11:38,930
will give him that, but still
nobody.

192
00:11:40,290 --> 00:11:42,530
And I'm surprised that Walker's
walking around.

193
00:11:43,050 --> 00:11:45,850
If there's nobody walking
around, then Walker shouldn't be

194
00:11:45,850 --> 00:11:47,410
walking around.
That's my.

195
00:11:47,450 --> 00:11:49,210
That's what I'm saying.
They should be dormant.

196
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,800
Yeah, so we shouldn't even see
the walkers at the bottom of the

197
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,240
bridge walking unless there's
somebody there.

198
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,520
But it looks like it's nowhere,
there's nobody in these areas.

199
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,000
Unless they heard him walking up
and and it woke them up.

200
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,080
But of course they don't.
They don't see him.

201
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,920
They just know that somebody's
walking.

202
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,560
Because, I mean, if he's walking
up on that bridge, that bridge

203
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:11,520
is made of stone pebbles could
be dropping down.

204
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:18,440
So I get that part I I get it.
But not one person, not one.

205
00:12:19,610 --> 00:12:23,130
And we don't know, we don't know
how long he's traveling.

206
00:12:23,810 --> 00:12:28,210
This could be weeks because when
you look at the the map he was

207
00:12:28,210 --> 00:12:31,570
tracking from Marseille to I
forgot what city that was.

208
00:12:31,570 --> 00:12:34,050
But I was like, that's not no
short trip.

209
00:12:35,490 --> 00:12:38,490
And then if you look at the way
he was walking by the time he

210
00:12:38,490 --> 00:12:42,440
got into the place.
That wasn't his man.

211
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,160
No, that wasn't his map.
But.

212
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,800
He it wasn't his map but he was
looking at it because when you

213
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:53,680
when he was listening to the
tapes of the the father who left

214
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:57,320
The Who recorded his tapes he
said something about them

215
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,800
landing in Marseille.
So that kind of gave gave Darryl

216
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,080
an idea of okay.
This is where I am.

217
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:10,000
But obviously he, he has an idea
where he's going because he

218
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:15,670
literally looked at a specific
town or a specific city and

219
00:13:15,670 --> 00:13:18,790
tracked his finger on the map
for it wasn't like he was

220
00:13:18,790 --> 00:13:21,230
saying, oh, let me go to Paris,
let me go here.

221
00:13:21,550 --> 00:13:27,670
No, he went to a specific city
and was like, so I'm like,

222
00:13:27,950 --> 00:13:31,070
obviously, you know, we keep
saying we don't know what the

223
00:13:31,070 --> 00:13:35,670
fuck Darrell is doing in France.
We do know what we do know, at

224
00:13:35,670 --> 00:13:39,670
least the information that has
come out of San Diego Comic Con.

225
00:13:40,150 --> 00:13:44,910
Supposedly this takes place only
a few months after the end of

226
00:13:44,910 --> 00:13:47,950
The Walking Dead.
So Daryl has been going back and

227
00:13:47,950 --> 00:13:53,590
forth to the Commonwealth
looking for Rick and Michonne.

228
00:13:53,630 --> 00:13:58,790
We know that from the season,
the series finale, maybe because

229
00:13:58,790 --> 00:14:02,750
because it's CRM, we already
know that they have flight

230
00:14:02,750 --> 00:14:05,070
capabilities.
We know they have helicopters.

231
00:14:05,070 --> 00:14:07,470
I don't know if they have
vehicles that will be able to

232
00:14:07,470 --> 00:14:13,290
take them long range, but maybe
he got a tip he was trying to

233
00:14:13,290 --> 00:14:15,490
figure some things out.
You know, what was the thing

234
00:14:15,490 --> 00:14:18,690
that he said?
He went looking for something

235
00:14:18,730 --> 00:14:25,090
and he he found trouble instead.
So maybe he ended up trying to

236
00:14:25,090 --> 00:14:27,930
figure out where Rick was.
Maybe something told him okay,

237
00:14:27,930 --> 00:14:29,850
he's no longer here, he's over
there.

238
00:14:30,130 --> 00:14:33,050
That was one who's going to keep
his promises If he says I'm

239
00:14:33,050 --> 00:14:35,130
going to go find Rick and I'm
going to bring him home.

240
00:14:35,470 --> 00:14:38,470
If Rick then traveled to Japan,
Darrell is going to go out his

241
00:14:38,470 --> 00:14:41,030
comfort zone to go find Rick.
Especially now that he knows

242
00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:44,310
that there's a possibility, a
strong possibility that Rick is

243
00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:47,590
alive, Strong enough that
Michonne left her kids to go

244
00:14:47,590 --> 00:14:50,150
find him because Judy said bring
my dad home.

245
00:14:51,630 --> 00:14:57,190
So I have a feeling he has a
purpose in France.

246
00:14:57,630 --> 00:15:02,430
It's just weird to think about
Darrell going to France.

247
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:07,100
You know Darrell, who had never
left Georgia prior to the zombie

248
00:15:07,100 --> 00:15:13,740
apocalypse, right?
And to the point of, you know

249
00:15:13,740 --> 00:15:17,220
that Shawn has left the kids.
You're supposed to be with the

250
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:19,340
kids, but you also need the kids
to look for them.

251
00:15:19,340 --> 00:15:21,660
But you know what?
I mean.

252
00:15:22,660 --> 00:15:26,900
If nothing else, him also being
a strong character, knowing with

253
00:15:26,900 --> 00:15:31,260
Shawn, like come on now.
Just stay where he is.

254
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,080
Yeah, but but you know what?
In in in the zombie apocalypse.

255
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,920
And I get what people say.
Nobody likes to stay still.

256
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,960
Nobody want to be at home.
Not only that, but it's like

257
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,440
there's something that you could
be doing to help.

258
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,640
Like OK2.
Hairs are better than 1/2, sets

259
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,640
of eyes are better than one.
Michelle has been gone at this

260
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,640
point. 6 maybe.
I mean, well, I don't know how

261
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,280
long it's been.
I don't think it's been that

262
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,400
long, but she's been gone long
enough.

263
00:15:59,950 --> 00:16:02,630
And maybe Darrell was like, OK,
now that I know that he's a lot

264
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:06,030
OK Darrell is the best tracker
they have in the group, so why

265
00:16:06,030 --> 00:16:08,230
would you not want him to go?
But if.

266
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:10,230
He's the best tracker they have
in the group.

267
00:16:10,590 --> 00:16:14,590
He would have found him close as
long as I'm sorry he remember

268
00:16:14,590 --> 00:16:16,470
he's out there for months.
Remember the whole Leah love

269
00:16:16,470 --> 00:16:17,910
story?
He was out there for months

270
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:20,830
searching for Rick.
But Rick was on the helicopter.

271
00:16:20,950 --> 00:16:23,030
He can't track.
He can't track in the air.

272
00:16:23,950 --> 00:16:26,830
Rick left in the helicopter.
But he can track that there was

273
00:16:26,830 --> 00:16:28,970
a helicopter.
Yeah, I was going to say they

274
00:16:29,010 --> 00:16:32,170
don't even know about the
helicopters, which again, is

275
00:16:32,170 --> 00:16:35,690
something else that I have an
issue with because how Jada's

276
00:16:35,690 --> 00:16:40,410
going to be in the lookout at
Alexandria and see a helicopter,

277
00:16:40,410 --> 00:16:45,570
Nobody else does that shit.
But I digress.

278
00:16:45,890 --> 00:16:46,530
I.
Digress.

279
00:16:46,610 --> 00:16:49,010
We getting into the weeds.
We're not.

280
00:16:49,210 --> 00:16:54,130
Going to do that, but yeah.
So the 1st, 10 minutes, they

281
00:16:54,130 --> 00:16:58,920
look interesting enough.
Like I I feel like they don't

282
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,240
answer questions about Darryl
being in France.

283
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,240
But at least what I see here I'm
like okay.

284
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:10,280
It feels like he ended up there.
Maybe not on purpose, but it was

285
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:15,119
kind of like a a, a a side
mission for whatever it was that

286
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,400
he was doing.
Maybe maybe some people.

287
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,440
Because again we know that
there's a connection with the

288
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,839
walkers and with France.
We saw that at the end of World

289
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:26,900
Beyond which Michelle, I know
you haven't seen it but if you

290
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:29,580
go look at the just the end
credits scene, that will tell

291
00:17:29,580 --> 00:17:31,820
you all you need to know about
France and the walkers.

292
00:17:34,860 --> 00:17:36,620
So.
So we know he's still on this

293
00:17:36,620 --> 00:17:38,300
mission.
Like he said in the recording,

294
00:17:38,300 --> 00:17:41,940
he was like you know if
something happens to me, I want

295
00:17:41,940 --> 00:17:44,140
them to know that I tried.
Hell, I'm still trying.

296
00:17:46,260 --> 00:17:50,900
So we at least get that much.
But I I'm still.

297
00:17:50,900 --> 00:17:54,940
It's just no people.
No walkers.

298
00:17:55,420 --> 00:18:00,580
And then you have Daryl Dixon
making dumb decisions coming

299
00:18:00,580 --> 00:18:06,260
into this building and now you
have this injury you.

300
00:18:07,260 --> 00:18:11,020
I know he picked up bandages
from the boat and I know he may

301
00:18:11,020 --> 00:18:16,180
have found something, but I'm
like it's something about this

302
00:18:16,260 --> 00:18:17,700
ain't.
Right It'll.

303
00:18:17,980 --> 00:18:22,540
Be an infection, right?
Because you burn it and part of

304
00:18:22,540 --> 00:18:23,980
him probably think for real, for
real.

305
00:18:23,980 --> 00:18:26,460
Damn, I got to cut my arm off or
this is the end.

306
00:18:28,300 --> 00:18:33,540
Which then now that that 10
minutes puts into perspective

307
00:18:33,540 --> 00:18:38,020
the none thing when you see that
the heat is burning and they try

308
00:18:38,020 --> 00:18:41,980
to, they probably cauterizing
his arm or whatever that puts

309
00:18:41,980 --> 00:18:45,420
that into perspective, right.
And even with the.

310
00:18:45,740 --> 00:18:48,660
Yeah, OK.
So yes, I'm looking right now in

311
00:18:48,660 --> 00:18:51,430
the background.
He's walking across that bridge.

312
00:18:51,430 --> 00:18:56,590
There's 123-4567, eight.
There's 9 walkers straggling at

313
00:18:56,590 --> 00:19:00,030
the bottom.
That's very interesting, but but

314
00:19:00,030 --> 00:19:06,030
I don't see walkers anywhere
else in this landscape.

315
00:19:06,110 --> 00:19:09,670
Even when they show, they show
him on this.

316
00:19:10,950 --> 00:19:13,750
I don't necessarily want to say
mountain peak because I don't

317
00:19:13,750 --> 00:19:16,630
think it's a mountain.
I'm not familiar enough with

318
00:19:16,630 --> 00:19:21,350
France's landscape to know where
they are, but I do see like 2-2

319
00:19:21,350 --> 00:19:25,870
pillars in the background.
But even then you don't see

320
00:19:26,590 --> 00:19:29,990
anything.
No people, no, not even a a

321
00:19:29,990 --> 00:19:33,230
miniscule person way over here
in the corner.

322
00:19:33,950 --> 00:19:39,730
You don't see any of that when
he walks through that town, you

323
00:19:39,730 --> 00:19:42,690
know, you see like all this
different stuff you see riding

324
00:19:42,690 --> 00:19:47,930
on the walls, no people and all
of the walkers that that he does

325
00:19:47,930 --> 00:19:50,090
come across, at least the dead
ones, you know, they've all

326
00:19:50,090 --> 00:19:52,450
been, they've all been stabbed
through the head.

327
00:19:54,570 --> 00:19:57,570
So I'm just, I don't know.
It's intriguing.

328
00:19:57,570 --> 00:20:01,330
But at the same time I'm like
please don't don't start this

329
00:20:01,330 --> 00:20:09,130
show out making.
Making decisions or making, you

330
00:20:09,130 --> 00:20:14,090
know, whatever, that doesn't
make sense because he just walks

331
00:20:14,170 --> 00:20:18,930
in here, he's looking around, he
doesn't do the banging on the

332
00:20:18,930 --> 00:20:22,770
door, see what comes out.
And I mean, I I get it.

333
00:20:23,010 --> 00:20:26,210
He's looking, he's like, oh,
this is open space, but still,

334
00:20:26,210 --> 00:20:31,050
you got tables, you have tar.
There's plenty of shifts for

335
00:20:31,050 --> 00:20:34,170
something to hide.
Even if not a Walker.

336
00:20:34,990 --> 00:20:37,070
There's enough places for people
to hide.

337
00:20:37,470 --> 00:20:40,110
There's tables with table
coverings over them.

338
00:20:40,110 --> 00:20:41,870
Somebody could have hit up on
the there.

339
00:20:41,950 --> 00:20:44,590
It's just I just.
Now I wouldn't have banged on

340
00:20:44,590 --> 00:20:49,790
the out that hairless.
Yeah, and I wouldn't bang on the

341
00:20:49,790 --> 00:20:52,710
outside, but I can see going
there being quiet because if you

342
00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:55,270
bang on the outside you don't
want to attract anything around

343
00:20:55,270 --> 00:20:57,930
the area and shit around the
area.

344
00:20:58,970 --> 00:21:02,850
He didn't even go.
He didn't come in.

345
00:21:02,850 --> 00:21:06,250
Quietly either he could have
came in quietly and still like

346
00:21:06,250 --> 00:21:10,570
checked to see if there was any
available walkers.

347
00:21:10,890 --> 00:21:15,050
Oh, and here's the other thing.
So when the when the first

348
00:21:15,050 --> 00:21:19,210
Walker knocks over the flower
pot, he looks at it and he backs

349
00:21:19,210 --> 00:21:25,180
up like he's scared.
When I come the knocked over and

350
00:21:25,180 --> 00:21:27,620
you saw the Walker you should
have been over there with that

351
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:32,780
staff killed him over with.
Then you would have seen all the

352
00:21:32,860 --> 00:21:35,140
other You're not afraid you
could have took off.

353
00:21:35,980 --> 00:21:41,700
We know he's not afraid of the
hand to hand combat and also so

354
00:21:41,700 --> 00:21:44,340
the fact that the Walker got to
his arm.

355
00:21:44,580 --> 00:21:48,220
Why are your sleeves pushed up?
I just have.

356
00:21:48,300 --> 00:21:52,660
I just have questions.
This is not the Darrell Dixon

357
00:21:53,230 --> 00:21:59,230
that I'm used to.
Maybe if it's, it's almost like

358
00:21:59,310 --> 00:22:00,950
you.
You know what Carl said when

359
00:22:00,950 --> 00:22:03,870
they first got to Alexandria, He
was like, I don't want us to get

360
00:22:03,870 --> 00:22:07,670
weak.
I feel like that's like the kind

361
00:22:07,670 --> 00:22:09,030
of version we're seeing of
Daryl.

362
00:22:09,070 --> 00:22:11,750
And I know he's probably
traumatized.

363
00:22:12,390 --> 00:22:14,790
He's all the way in France from
Virginia.

364
00:22:14,910 --> 00:22:16,510
We don't even know how he got
there.

365
00:22:16,510 --> 00:22:18,630
We don't know what what route he
took.

366
00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:21,530
We we don't know how long he was
floating on the ocean.

367
00:22:21,530 --> 00:22:24,530
We don't know how long he's had
to walk across this countryside

368
00:22:24,810 --> 00:22:28,490
with no food, no sustenance, no
water, no nothing.

369
00:22:28,770 --> 00:22:30,850
I get it.
All of this could be fucking

370
00:22:30,850 --> 00:22:33,690
with him.
But this is not the Darrell.

371
00:22:33,730 --> 00:22:37,810
I am used to making those kinds
of decisions, making him.

372
00:22:38,170 --> 00:22:42,450
A Not badass.
Yeah, how about?

373
00:22:42,570 --> 00:22:45,570
We go back to the if Darrell
dies, we riot Darrell.

374
00:22:46,690 --> 00:22:51,780
Yeah, Yeah.
So you know, like I said, I'm

375
00:22:51,780 --> 00:22:55,300
going to tune in because it's
The Walking Dead and it's

376
00:22:55,340 --> 00:22:58,220
Darrell and I feel like whatever
they're going to do, they're

377
00:22:58,220 --> 00:23:00,380
going to, they're going to
redeem this.

378
00:23:00,380 --> 00:23:05,580
But I'm like the 1st 10 minutes,
y'all have me asking more

379
00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:11,660
questions and being upset as
opposed to being excited.

380
00:23:12,340 --> 00:23:15,700
I'm like, wait, why is he making
what?

381
00:23:16,410 --> 00:23:18,650
They did.
They did too good of a shop on

382
00:23:18,650 --> 00:23:22,770
the job on the original show to
have the secondary shows be

383
00:23:22,770 --> 00:23:27,650
bullshit with dumbass
unexplainable, making our

384
00:23:27,650 --> 00:23:31,170
characters who we've grown to
love and know so much.

385
00:23:31,770 --> 00:23:36,330
Make them these remedial
characters who don't remember

386
00:23:36,330 --> 00:23:40,010
shit like you ain't been killing
walkers for the last 20 goddamn

387
00:23:40,010 --> 00:23:46,430
years.
That that so OK I'm I'm I'm

388
00:23:46,430 --> 00:23:50,190
going to shut up about it now I
just those are some things I

389
00:23:50,190 --> 00:23:55,070
just had to get out like why?
And I I I get what y'all was

390
00:23:55,070 --> 00:23:59,870
saying about the the him being
on the beach and the water.

391
00:24:00,590 --> 00:24:05,550
But I also feel like from where
that beach bucket was, the tide

392
00:24:05,550 --> 00:24:07,750
would have come in that that
could have easily have been

393
00:24:08,190 --> 00:24:11,350
seawater.
And at that point and at that

394
00:24:11,350 --> 00:24:16,270
point, if you're if you're as
dehydrated, you're going to

395
00:24:16,270 --> 00:24:19,150
drink anything, I would have
just as quickly turned around

396
00:24:19,150 --> 00:24:21,910
and drank from that blue water
as opposed to that water that

397
00:24:21,910 --> 00:24:27,350
probably has sand in it.
I'm just saying, I mean, I know

398
00:24:27,350 --> 00:24:30,470
this is Darryl.
This is the person who eats all

399
00:24:30,470 --> 00:24:33,190
kinds of shit off of, you know,
off of fire.

400
00:24:33,430 --> 00:24:34,790
I get it.
I get it.

401
00:24:35,270 --> 00:24:36,830
The fish.
Look fire, though.

402
00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:40,750
The fish look good.
The fish look good.

403
00:24:42,590 --> 00:24:45,990
You didn't see walkers in the
water like you did in a dead

404
00:24:46,150 --> 00:24:53,270
city, so that's a good thing.
But okay anyway, I think that's

405
00:24:53,270 --> 00:24:56,630
all I have to say about that.
Do y'all have anything else to

406
00:24:56,630 --> 00:25:00,270
say about that?
Okay.

407
00:25:00,350 --> 00:25:04,150
So the show comes out September
10th.

408
00:25:04,270 --> 00:25:11,720
It will be on AM C plus
September 7th, so we will be

409
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:16,480
covering the show.
I'm going to try to like rain in

410
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,720
my expectations and and wait to
see what the first episode

411
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,720
reveals before I start going off
on the writers.

412
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,720
I just had to get this little
bit out.

413
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,040
Was this pre riding strike?
I hope so.

414
00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:34,680
Because you that's really
filming season 2.

415
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,680
Maybe filming season 2 now for I
think like maybe a month.

416
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,040
A little bit over a month.
So yeah.

417
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,640
The devil this shows.
Yeah.

418
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,520
So that no, this is not
preproduction.

419
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,240
This is not oh, let's see how
everybody thinks about it.

420
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:55,360
Then we go in and make changes.
No, this is the 1st 10 minutes

421
00:25:55,360 --> 00:26:00,880
of the episode.
So we we gonna see, we gonna

422
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,320
see.
