As The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2 release date gets closer, AMC has revealed some of their plans for the upcoming series. While some story details are under wraps, it has been confirmed that Daryl will reunite with a close friend – exciting pre-existing franchise fans. Beyond this, the show could also solve a mystery Daryl Dixon season 1 left hanging, creating plenty of intrigue.
Being part of such a sprawling franchise, it is helpful to know where the show sits in The Walking Dead timeline and how far into the outbreak Daryl Dixon is set – either as a new viewer or as a refresher. As multiple spinoffs continue to expand The Walking Dead‘s story, the franchise’s wider timeline is only becoming more complex. However, unlike some stories, Daryl Dixon is relatively straightforward to follow.
Daryl Dixon Season 1 Begins Very Soon After The Walking Dead’s Ending
Norman Reedus reprises his role as Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, a spin-off series set in a zombie-apocalypse-ravaged France. Daryl fights to survive and find a path back to America. The creator, David Zabel, clarified Daryl Dixon’s timeline concerning the main series The Walking Dead in an interview with Collider. Discussing where season 1 picks up, he also clarifies where in the timeline season 1 is situated:
“It’s the same day, pretty much. Also, because people do ask this sometimes, our entire series really continues off at the end of The Walking Dead. When we met Daryl at the beginning of this show, it was only three or four weeks after he left the Commonwealth on his bike. Now, we’re only two months or three months after the end of The Walking Dead.”
The Walking Dead ended in 2023, meaning Daryl Dixon takes place in 2023—2024. Whereas other spinoffs have confused the timeline, this means Daryl Dixon is more straightforward in continuing chronologically after the events of The Walking Dead finale. Further, it can work as a standalone show for those who haven’t seen The Walking Dead – although it’s beneficial to know Daryl’s background, he gets set up at the beginning of season 1, explaining he’s from the Commonwealth in the U.S.
