It's been 14 years since The Walking Dead infected audiences with zombie fever and helped kick-start a decades-long obsession with stories of survival among the undead. Even in 2024, the craze has yet to die out, with plenty of Walking Dead spinoffs for fans to enjoy. Up next, it's time for Season 2 of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon — AKA The Book of Carol.
After washing up on the shores of France in Season 1, Daryl Dixon's expat life just keeps getting more complicated. Meanwhile, his friend Carol is determined to find him, no matter the risk. Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride are both back for Season 2 — and don't worry, production has already started on Season 3, so no need to fear cancellation the way you might fear the walking dead.
