‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’ Star Melissa McBride Says Season 2 Goes Places She Didn’t Get to in the Original Series

“The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” Season 2 is set to return to the show’s original premise with “The Book of Carol,” and both Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride are thrilled about it — particularly because it allows them to explore some story aspects they wanted to in the original series.

Both actors appeared in all but three episodes of the original “Walking Dead.” “Daryl Dixon” was originally supposed to be called “The Walking Dead: Daryl & Carol,” but due to scheduling issues, McBride had to drop out.
