This story contains some spoilers from the season two premiere of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol.] There are very few figures from the original Walking Dead days still involved in the franchise.

Then I remember: It’s not the characters faults. The problem with this show, like so many others in The Walking Dead franchise, is the abysmal writing. The first episode of Daryl Dixon Season 2 is so poorly written, with so many contrivances, plot holes and rookie mistakes, I am left with zero faith in the rest of the season.
