The Walking Dead season 7: Dwight impersonating Daryl
By Adam Carlson
Dwight seems to be taking on a new look during season 7 of AMC’s The Walking Dead, and that fashion style is mirroring that of popular survivor Daryl Dixon.
There is a saying that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. If that is the case, then Dwight from The Walking Dead must really respect Daryl Dixon.
Despite shooting him in the shoulder during season 6 of the hit zombie survival program, Dwight must still like Daryl, or at least like his style. A new teaser clip for season 7 has fans doing a bit of a double take, as Dwight is all dressed up like his rival.
The teaser video aired during Sunday’s special episode of Talking Dead where Chris Hardwick, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Austin Amelio (who plays Dwight) discussed the upcoming season as well as other things.
AMC has finally made the teaser from the Talking Dead special for The Walking Dead season 7 featuring Dwight available, so here it is from the official AMC YouTube account:
The most noticeable thing in this video is that Dwight has two things that don’t belong to him. He is wearing the vest of Daryl as well as driving his motorcycle. Of course, this motorcycle has been being transferred back and forth between the two men for a while now, but the vest is something new.
Remembering back to season 6 of The Walking Dead, the vest was used by The Saviors during one of the roadblocks between Alexandria and The Hilltop. It was placed on one of the walkers in the chain gang as a threat to Rick and the others, to let them know Negan meant business.
Now, that vest seems to belong to Dwight, as well as the motorcycle. But how long will these items remain as Dwight’s property and how long will fans have to wait to see more interaction between these two complicated, but mirroring characters?

Don’t miss the return of The Walking Dead to AMC on Sunday, October 23, 2016 at 9/8c. With so much drama surrounding these characters and an even bigger world on the horizon, the landscape of the zombie survival drama fans have grown to love is about to change dramatically.
