Daryl Dixon new Walking Dead spinoff

[Anonymous]

Anyone watching? (And before the thread police accuse me of not googling an existing thread, I did and nothing came up.) Seems... ok, but I absolutely can't stand the kid who plays Laurent. There is something so unappealing about him and it'll probably be the reason I stop watching.

I do really like Clemence Posey though. She has such an interesting and sweet face. And of course, Norman Reedus - love him.

I thought the first ep was quite good. Unlike the NYC spinoff pilot, though admittedly I always found Maggie and 'post-redemption' Negan the least interesting characters.

I agree the Laurent character is annoying, also agree Clemence Posey is great. Still thinking about it, not sure if I want to commit to an AMC+ subscription.

I loved it. It checked all of the boxes why I loved TWD. And of course, it had Darryl.

I didn't quite like the Maggie/Negan spinoff as much, though it got better toward the end. I think it was greenlighted for second season? And I will watch. I love the Maggie and Negan characters a lot. But, their chemistry just isn't quite there and I was tired of hearing about their backstory with Glen's death. (And FTR, Glen was my FAVE character ever and that scene was devastating). But, I feel like Maggie either needs to move on or just kill him. Because her constant . . . . fixating on him and that is tiresome. It's a #$%#$ apocalypse. And Negan was only the bad guy from the perspective of our Alexandria fan faves.

I hope they move on to the Maggie and Negan characters that we love and remove the "relationship" between them.

I totally agree with all of this! Maggie constantly seething with rage about Negan is beyond old. I hope she is able to get past it and move on at this point. (Though I also agree that Negan killing Glen was horrific and one of the hardest scenes I've ever watched.)

I think both Negan and Maggie have a lot in common - they're tough survivors and do what needs to be done. I'd like to explore their relationship more.

And yet... here you are. So curious.
