RETURN OF THE DEAD FRANCHISE
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon
Sunday, Sept. 10, 9/8c, AMC/AMC+
He’s a stranger in a very strange land. In The Walking Dead’s latest spinoff series, a fan favorite, crossbow-wielding American Southerner Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus, also an executive producer), finds himself in Paris. But the City of Light is flickering and filled with the dead. How he winds up overseas is still murky (he does spend a portion of his trip across the Atlantic floating on shipwrecked debris), but once he’s there, he certainly won’t have time to try on berets or munch on any baguettes.
In the six-episode first season (the action drama has already been renewed for a second round), Daryl is tasked with protecting and delivering 11-year-old Laurent (Louis Puech Scigliuzzi) from the boy’s convent home started as, which is a man on a mission.”
