After the tremendous success of The Walking Dead, it was expected that fan-favorite characters (those who survived) would have their own continuation. This was the case for Daryl Dixon, portrayed for over five years by Norman Reedus.

The first season premiered on streaming in October 2023, and since then, it has become an essential title for fans of the original series, which has had a significant impact on popular culture since its debut in 2010.
