Thanks for sharing this I'd like to see Daryl have a chance to interact more with other people in 6- B and filming spoilers support that with some interesting mixes of characters. I did find the tank kill plus file cabinet as bullet- shield scene OTT. Be happy with a Daryl-Rick bit which we get as Butch & Sundance in 6.10 apparently, and some interactions with Carol, Maggie, Carl or others I hope. Plus Jesus, Denise and Rosita per filming spoilers.

I feel like if they don't finally get him right in 6 B they never will....do they even care? It looks like they were trying to set the stage in 6A for some upcoming changes....I am looking forward to about 6.10... and hopeful I won't be let down... but afraid I might.
It is a good point about following the GN and Daryl not being in it.... but Carol isn't either and she continues to amaze. They need to take some chances with him and they seem reluctant. I hope he hauls off and punches Rick... or Morgan... or both! I need to see Daryl's fire again....not his mainpain, not bad decisions based on it, not self-blame.

My Dichonne heart might be just a tiny bit biased but looking at some interviews especially Norman and Danai on Larry King and some comments Norman has made, am I the only one that gets a vibe that Norman (and Danai) were kind of subtlety campaigning for a Daryl and Michonne pairing around 2013. Norman seemed like he was dropping some hints for the writers to pick up on, or playing certain scenes in a way that seemed like they were a bit flirty. Danai has only smiled that big gorgeous smile for Daryl and I don't think that was by accident. Idk,they might have stopped because it became clear Gimple was carving out a Rick and Michonne pairing and I noticed after sharing screen time a few times in S4, SG stopped it and kind of stopped their interactions altogether. When's the last time Michonne and Daryl spoke besides that one line in s6 ep 15? Norman is a tease but he also likes to say that he doesn't want Daryl to act like he has any game but then saying he thinks Daryl and Michonne would have good sex surprised me lol Anyway, the point to my nonsense post is to say I think Norman does want Daryl to have interesting and engaging storylines but SG either doesn't pick up on his hints, doesn't like his suggestions or doesn't like Daryl. SG has done some good things for the show but I'm kind of surprised AMC hasn't told SG to write better shit for their cash cow or bring in another talented showrunner that is going to stop recycling stuff and bring new life to all of the characters.

lesmicelli, I agree the tide began to turn with daryls character when gimple took over. It hard to guess what NR would like to see for his character these days (In some ways it seems like he stopped campaigning to be a "serious actor" after his 4b story fell flat) - but i think it's totally reasonable to think he would have preferred to have a story that allows him to do more. NR may drop hints but frankly he shouldn't have to in order to have a stronger, more compelling story I never saw any real hints or chemistry between Daryl and michonne personally but the actors have seemed fond of each other in interviews and are fun to watch. I'm sure neither would have been too upset if the show had taken their friendship in a different direction.

I try to stay optimistic for Daryl and hope each time he has a crisis it is going to pave the way for some character change..my most current point of optimism is around his getting shot bringing around some type of realization his behavior hasnt been working for him. If the lucille victim is from the van, I fear eternal guilt and manpain forever. If it is Abe, I am hoping that death will open his eyes to going after what he wants.
Mostly, though, I am afraid and have a gut feeling we wont get anything new for Daryl.

They're greedy so I don’t understand how they are satisfied with how Daryl and other very popular characters have been handled in S6. Daryl Michonne, Glenn, and Carl) have been grossly under used or their character has changed out of nowhere (Carol) and they're fan favorites! How AMC just stands by and okays this mess is a mystery. Can you imagine if the character that died at the end of the season were to be Daryl, Michonne or Glenn? Their stories this season was a hot mess (besides Michonne and Rick falling in love) and I don’t see how AMC could be thrilled with them not being shown for almost the entire 90 minute finale just to be the one who dies (which makes me think it wasn't either of them. *crosses fingers*) Anyway, I hope this Dwight rivalry is setting up Daryl's arc to make him the badass with a heart I became a huge fangirl for

There is a theory that whoever was lucilled is from the van based on they were showing their POV looking out the back....to tie in with POV getting lucilled. I think it has merit but also hate it because those characters had no screentime in the finale. And Daryl's story has so much left. But they may be wanting the death to be that random. I dont think any of those 3 would have had the strength to get back up after the first swing, though.
Back to Daryl. I am stymied where they want to take him in his anger with Dwight. I imagine it will intensify after lucille...although Dwight did spare his life...which could have an impact on Daryl.

I imagine it will intensify after lucille...although Dwight did spare his life...which could have an impact on Daryl. I saw that theory and it does make a lot of sense but unfortunately that means it's Glenn (or Rosita) but I remember Norman saying he cried in episode 15 while filming the scene in which Glenn was telling Daryl to go back home with he and Michonne. He said it was how Steven said it but it makes me kind of wonder if it was Glenn who was killed and the cast does actually know? It also makes me wonder about Daryl's state because not only will whomever died shake Rick up, Glenn was out there to go get Daryl so there'll be the Denise guilt plus the Glenn guilt? I roll my eyes at this because like it was already discussed, guilt seems to be Daryl's m.o. lol Oh and anger so I just wish SG could come up with a better storyline for him other than feeling guilty. We'll see how s7 goes but I'm kind of torn because I swore the finale was my last time watching the show until SG was let go but after a few days my own guilt of just turning my back on these characters I've been invested in for almost 6 yrs and these actors who endure such shitty/rough conditions to entertain us, kicked in lol They give us their all and I just feel like a twat not watching the show because I'm not thrilled with the showrunner at the moment. So Idk where that leaves me with the show but whether I keep watching or not, I want the best for these characters and the actors and I just don't feel they're getting the best right now writing wise. :/

They also say Glenn is the only one who had trees in front of him. But I DO NOT want the guilt of this on Daryl. He will be in eternal guilt. In fact, I have thought about quitting if they cannot get Carol out of this arc and Daryl out of his anger and pain. I am so done with it.

Lol Fo rizz, I'm watching the show from the beginning on Netflix at the moment and I'm watching the episode after the Sophia reveal and I just can't believe Daryl took it worse than Carol. RME He's such an ass right now... him calling Lori Olive Oil was brilliant though LOL I miss feisty Daryl, just don't want it back due to the old worn out guilty storyline

Season 2 Daryl was a work of art.
