The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 is just a week away, and we're desperate to know watch Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride) are up against in the next part of their adventure.
Thankfully, The Walking Dead dropped another behind-the-scenes look at season 3 with commentary and teasers from the cast and creative team, including Reedus, McBride, Stephen Merchant, and commented on the stakes Daryl and Carol will be facing in the new season.
In a behind-the-scenes look at Daryl Dixon season 3, McBride revealed the pair have "nothing to lose."
"They have nothing to lose," McBride said. "They have nothing, except each other."
I have to say, that's a pretty fair assessment. Like, this duo has made it through 11 seasons of The Walking Dead and two seasons of this show so far. They've lost everyone they've ever known, except for each other. While many would, and many have, quit or given up, well, that's just not Daryl and Carol.
After reuniting and escaping the Chunnel somehow in the season 2 finale, Daryl and Carol have a new lease on life for what feels like the millionth time. As we've learned, they each have the desire to return home, to whatever is left of America, but we know that's not happening anytime soon.
In the behind-the-scenes teaser, we see that Daryl and Carol land in Spain, which, as we all know, is a long way from America. Carol is very injured, and they are looking for a place that will take them in for a time, or so it appears.
If something could just be simple for these two, that would be great, but we know that's not going to happen. Chaos definitely follows, but it's possible that, with Daryl Dixon officially coming to an end after season 4, we could be starting the beginning of the end for Daryl and Carol's adventure. There was some serious healing happening in the season 2 finale. Now, we're about to find out how these characters have changed, if they have at all.
If there's one thing we know for sure, Daryl and Carol are going to connect with some people in a special way, and then give them the tools to fight back against their oppressors. Instead of minding their own business, fixing their boat, and heading home, the duo will be right in the middle of the action. That's an absolute certainty.
I'm most excited for the Spanish setting for Daryl Dixon season 3 and the new characters we are about to meet. In the few clips we've seen so far, it's absolutely stunning! I can't wait to see what the different culture brings to the season. The good news is that we'll find out soon!
Stay tuned for more news about Daryl Dixon season 3! And, make sure you tune in for the season premiere on Sunday, Sept. 9, on AMC and AMC+ at 9 p.m. ET. New episodes will be released weekly on Sunday nights.
