  • Well don't underestimate AMC's greediness. If Reedus or Lincoln try to hold out for too much money I have no doubt that AMC will give them the axe.

    i don't buy this answer...Daryl will only be killed off when ratings maybe drop,same with Rick. He's fast becoming the George Lucas of his creation (not understanding one bit of it)

  • Being successful doesn't make something good. Family Guy's proof of this.

    And you could do better?. The comics have been going for over ten years now, doesn't exactly scream bad/unsuccessful writer to me.

  • yup

  • surprisingly I like Carl more and more.

    impossible

    I like the show, I don't read the comics. The game and show has gone quit in different directions I think. Season 1 of show was the closest

  • can't argue with that. Not to mention american dad. But still i wouldn't say kirkman is a bad writer, mediocre maybe, but not bad.

  • Not necessarily, that's why I pointed out Doug OR Carley. Because one of them dies in episode 1 when you have barely even gotten to know either of them and it can be Carley. The peak of her popularity isn't reached if you don't save her. d:

    Well Carley may be a bad example. She died at the peak of her popularity... But then it's not really how it works in the comics either. I

  • No. Not at all. He's created a franchise that a lot of people love.

    I shouldn't have said trolling since that's got too many negative connotations. I merely meant that i like his sense of humour and not everything he says should be taken at face value.

    So now you're saying Kirkman owes his success and talent to the fact he's a troll? ...well, that's depressing.

  • Is it? If it was the likes of Michonne and Jesus would be long gone. I'm not saying there's no truth in what he says, he'll want the readers to be invested in the characters before they die, but it's by no means a system of crossing off characters once they pass a threshold.

    It's plainly obvious that its not really how it works. I gave up on the comic a long time ago, but I've seen enough later issues and plot developments to know that pretty much is how it works.

  • Daryl has been my favorite character since his first episode, and I've only posted something involving him like three times. This, and two memes. As for him being an Alpha male, I don't agree with that. He's been following Merle and Rick his entire life. Being level headed does not equate into being a leader. Besides, he hasn't always been cool and collected, he spent most of season 1 in a rage lol. As for him blowing up the tank, the only part about that that was totally unrealistic was the walker shield. That was just no.

    His fans as a collective group are obnoxious though, I can't refute that on any level. I personally thought that if they were to kill him off it would have been a good time to when he was asleep in the road, and the bandits offered him to join them. When the leader mentions hurting other people I expected Daryl to just off him, and get mowed down. I thought this since the entire episode Beth was trying to convince him he's a good person, and then when presented with hurting others, he knew he wasn't like that, and bam he dies. For me I can't see a more fitting death, but for now he remains, and his death will probably be stupid when it happens.

    they are THE WORST! Fan-base I have ever seen... At least they are not too many spread around this forum,which is a good thing. Still, we better put this matter to rest before any of them come down on us.

  • I only recently started watching the TV series on Netflix, but at least with regards to the TellTale series, I just assume everybody is going to die, because...for me, that's The Walking Dead. If a character doesn't die, I'm surprised. So usually, it's just a matter of when, and if it's at the point where the creative team have kind of accomplished what they wanted to with a character, then it makes perfect sense that he/she should just get eaten by a random zombie. Cos...you know...that's The Walking Dead.
