The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon - The Book Of Carol - Season Two

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, has just concluded its second season titled, The Book of Carol, featuring Melissa McBride as a series regular in a return to the show's original concept. The second season landed on Stan late September, concluding this Monday. These short and sharp six episode seasons are an easy watch.

In July 2024, the series was renewed for a third season. We will see what next season is titled soon enough I'd say. They are already filming the series in Spain this time around.

So maybe the series will include some Spanish in place of French for the first two seasons of this spin-off.

The fifth spin-off and overall sixth television series in The Walking Dead franchise, sharing continuity with the other series and set after the conclusion of the original The Walking Dead television series.

Norman Reedus is back as Daryl Dixon joining returning TWD family member Melissa McBride as Carol.

In the finale, Au Revoir les Enfants, Daryl and Carol argue about which one of them will stay behind, although Daryl convinces Ash to take Laurent to the Commonwealth. 

While on a supply run, Fallou, Codron, and their new friend Akila are attacked by guerriers searching for the plane while Jacinta ambushes Anna, eventually making a deal to give her the plane and pilot.

However, Anna, who remembers Laurent kindly, betrays Jacinta and leads her into a parking garage full of burners, causing Jacinta to lock Anna in to be devoured, but not before Jacinta is bitten. 

The Union and Pouvoir attack the race track, but Daryl, Fallou, and Codron buy time for Ash and Laurent to escape, joined by Carol who chooses to stay behind at the last minute as well. 

Devastated, Jacinta commits suicide. Daryl finally reveals the truth about Michel's death to Codron while Fallou decides to stay in France with Akila, having fallen in love with her. Fallou's friends, Scottish couple Angus and Fiona, lead Daryl, Carol, and Codron to attempt to cross to England using the Chunnel; they encounter a group of dead English soldiers and walkers who, like much of the Chunnel, are bioluminescent. 

The psychoactive effects of bat guano cause everyone to hallucinate: Codron hallucinates Michel, eventually running off after him after fighting with Daryl who he thought killed Michel as a walker, while Carol hallucinates herself as a walker, and also her daughter, finally helping Carol to come to terms with her death; Daryl hallucinates Isabelle, who encourages him to fight, and his grandfather. 

Daryl is forced to kill the treacherous Angus and Fiona in self-defence, and he and Carol put on gas masks and finally leave France, heading for England.

So how do they wind up in Spain for season three? No doubt it will be back in 2025 on Stan. Yes these Walking Dead series live on Stan not Binge like the parent series and OG spin-off Fear the Walking Dead.

Oh Australia and too many streaming services.

Stan however has done well to get these Walking Dead spin-offs. They may be short in run time but there has already been three.

Up next more Ryan Murphy with American Horror Stories.
