Why did the writers decide to turn him into a mumbling, gruff speaking lone wolf type? They ruined a good character. I mean was it the writers or Norman Reedus' decision to play him like that. I can't stand Daryl now, whenever he is on screen it just infuriates me, because I think back to season 1 and he was easily one of the best characters.

Agree with all of that. Remember when Judith was a new born, and he took over nursing duties? Those were the days!

Last season he was still dealing with tons of guilt over Glenn's death. Not to mention, the crap he went through while a prisoner of Negan.

He'll probably me more of his old self this season.

I just hope they don't make him shower or cut his hair

You're a fat, disgusting pig.

You're obviously projecting unless you're suffering from keyboard Tourettes. Get help.

Why don't you indulge in a third and fourth helping of the slop they served your hog-ass in the trough this morning.

Are you done? The grownups are talking here.

Just ignore him, Jana. For some reason, this board attracts a lot of rude and strange people.

My comments were in keeping with yours. All you brought to a discussion about Daryl's character development (or lack thereof) was commentary on how you enjoy filthy, dirty, unwashed pigs. I offered my own sentiments on that topic shift.

Now, if you're so concerned with acting like a "grownup," why don't you shove your greasy, bloated head back in that trough instead of backtalking your superiors.

If you had taken more than two seconds to try and actually read my post you would have known what it was about. But maybe you need to be a woman to do that. By the way, do you speak to all women like this? You hate us don't you. Admit it.

Anyway, the keyword is esthetics (I don't feel like explaining it to you so Google it). Daryl cannot ever freshen up, that would be the killshot for the show. Just as bad as killing him off. Imagine him coming out on the porch smelling like roses, with a nice candy striped shirt and a posh haircut waving to the others with a smile. Nah, you would lose all respect you had for TWD. He's the forever tormented loner who takes on the crap missions and never sings no matter how much heat he's under, but can still shed a tear when his heart aches or his bow breaks. Why the fuck would he care about soap. Also the ladies love Dirty Daryl. But we don't love guys with potty mouths.

Yup, they're trying to bring the old IMDb TWD board back to life. I was there once. Once! 😨

Mindless vermin, I know what your post was about. English is your secondary/tertiary tongue, not mine. A fact which renders your overtly sexist remark suggesting one need be female to "get" it laughable. One must be retarded to make sense of your messages, not female. You'll also have to explain to me how you extrapolated from my comment a representation of how I speak to anyone but you.

Everyone has already lost all respect for TWD. You not only don't speak for all women, but the only reason you don't think Daryl should "care about soap" (what the fuck?) is because you're Eurotrash and probably bathe even less frequently than he does. Your point is moot, and you're still a fat, disgusting pig. Fuck you and the serrated Swiss Army dildo you rode in on, you bile-saturated subhuman.

You can't upset me you know, because despite all the insults you throw at me, I take this in comfort for knowing. I'm nothing like you. I never will be. There will come a time when your foolishness will come back to haunt you. When you're reading this, you've already come up with about ten different ways to tell me how ugly and fat I am or how I should masturbate with a chainsaw. I'll save you the trouble, don't bother because it won't stick. Sorry love.

Ummm

I'm not sure if it was a conscious decision to have Daryl take a back seat last season, but I did feel he was under utilized. He was mopey, and withdrew from the group. For a long while, Daryl was the subject of a lot of internet chatter. Maybe they didn't want people to overdose on too much Daryl? Whatever the reason, I felt his character regressed a lot. Maybe it'll pick up in season 8.
