The Walking Dead: Daryl
Dixon (AMC)
Daryl's journey across a broken but resilient France as
he hopes to find a way back home. Following his
departure from The Commonwealth, Daryl Dixon washes
ashore in France, raising the ire of a splintered but
growing autocratic movement centered in Paris and
endangering a young boy at the heart of a benevolent
religious movement. Much like the very start of the
original show, you don’t feel like you’re watching a TV
series, you feel like you’re watching a movie. Its
characters are compelling, its setting is visually
beautiful, and its story commands your attention.
