Daryl and Carol’s most iconic moments with Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride

Who knew hugs could be so dangerous… #TWDCaryl

DARYL & CAROL'S MOST ICONIC MOMENTS: AMC I AMC+

"I was... was unsettled. Carol was unsettled with you going off and her being left behind. One of the most emotional scenes I can recall ever doing." - Melissa McBride "Real life mimicked that scene so well, it kinda didn't matter that we said the lines on the page, to be honest. And it was one of those scenes where like the wind stopped, you know what I mean?" - Norman Reedus

Words can't describe how much I love these two! And their reaction to this scene was so cute ♡♡♡

I saw the teaser and it got me thinking…

It’s not some mysterious happenstance that lead to Melissa McBride appearing on our screens again. She’s still around in TWDU because she is responsible for so many of the most iconic, rewatchable and deeply engaging moments and that isn’t easily forgotten among fans. We will always want her here so we can continue the story with Caryl as a united pair. And much as I share in the enthusiasm over how powerful her presence is, that alone isn’t enough! The quality of their story together still matters to us. The generic “thrills” aren’t working. I’m sure Melissa wants quality material to dive into as much as the fans do. She considers us in a way that others working on this spin-off will not. However, the fans will always be an objectively important aspect to the show’s ongoing success or failure. After all, who’s going to be watching?

It can be hard to believe our voices are being heard after countless disappointments, cruel shipbaity manipulations and needless retconning; it has often felt like we haven’t been valued. But the more we speak up about our expectations, the greater chance we have of getting them met. I don’t want past missteps to discourage us to the point of accepting something merely “inoffensive.” Let’s think of what this spin-off could be!

Nothing in those promos is engaging me on a meaningful level and this far along into a story, that shouldn’t be a difficult task. We need to see major changes going forward, especially with the writing. The title alone is unacceptable, and even if I could accept it (which I can’t!), “acceptable” isn’t enough. Once whatever future we get for Carol and Daryl is on our screens, it can’t be undone. Once it’s been decided, we will have to live with it forever. So now is the time to have the highest of expectations and demands. Nothing is set in stone yet! Now is a better time than any to pour our energy into advocating for what we want to see. I’d rather be criticizing the show now rather than once it’s been irreversibly ruined by the current showrunner (Zabel). We know we are going to see Caryl together again, that is our only guarantee atp. Which version of the spin-off we get, could still change, especially going into S3! We don’t have to settle for a lesser version of what should be OUR show.

Our dedication should be rewarded with something to look forward to, not something that causes dread. The dread of further disappointment is what drove viewers away. It burned me out to the point I never finished watching S11 of TWD. I didn’t tune in for the initial season of the spin-off because omitting Carol was the most nonsense decision imaginable. The only thing that would make me consider returning is a storyline worth my time. Because boy do I get invested when I give a damn. Imagine getting a story with actual stakes and payoff. Something a little more captivating than watching two friends suffering through seasons more of the apocalypse.

The purpose of reuniting these two is to profit on their unmatched bond and chemistry. They are capable of anything when they are together and taking their relationship to the next level would open up so many new possibilities storywise. Give us something fresh tonally. Let the relationship develop naturally into something romantic as it always should have been. That’s what’s going to get people talking and clamoring for more. That’s what’s going to get word to reach those who left. Seeing a middle aged couple headlining a series is groundbreaking tv and that representation alone could bring in loads of new eyes and reinvigorate online discussion.

What show are they trying to sell me based on the brief window into S2 with tonight’s promos? Caryl’s relationship isn’t the centerpiece here. What I saw was an attempt to catch my attention with repetitive action sequences. There’s nothing original about shootouts and car crashes and distractingly bad looking CGI blood and verbal cliches. Carol interacted with Daryl’s props? That’s the best you can give me? The unique draw this show has, that makes the appeal one of a kind, is Carol and Daryl played by Melissa and Norman. That’s an absolute narrative goldmine and something no other show on tv can claim. I’m echoing so many other fans when I say this. We are able to see the potential for greatness. An emotionally intimate slow burn relationship built over many years will always have within it a vast, complex narrative to explore that new characters cannot bring to the table. AMC has a rare gift in their hands. Continued success of the franchise hinges on the network making the right call when it comes to this duo. That’s where the attention should go. That’s the tease I was looking for tonight. That’s the upcoming payoff that would win back my trust and viewership. I want to see something I can feel passionate about again. We understand these characters aren’t learning to navigate the world without each other. They are fighting to stay alive so that they can be together again and realize their relationship in a way that is new. Caryl’s history runs deep and they couldn’t give us a single emotional beat to grasp onto in the promo- that’s how I’m feeling right now.

Side note cause I can’t help myself but I know I’m not the only one who noticed that Melissa McBride is a total smokeshow in that teaser. It’s not an obscure observation by any means haha. She looked goddamn amazing and badass and well, fucking hot 🥵 It is an undeniable privilege to see this woman on our screens again.

[comments by @ilovescaryl, @mementomorlllll & @gatbsythegreat ]

I don't know if the crossed out sections are cut scenes, but I do know that things, like canon, won't appear onscreen without being written into the script. It's not improv theater. Things also have to be filmed in order for them to be shown, no matter how it's edited. If they didn't shoot an embrace, a kiss or Caryl frantically checking each other over to make sure they're both all right, we won't get to see it.

Caryl will still be down in the tunnel, getting gassed and seeing dead people because that seems to be the plot, even if they cut the ship bait. The dialogue is still stilted and dumb, even if the delivery is magnificent. Melissa McBride will be breathtaking if they didn't cut her big Sophia scene to make room for the nun, but the scene itself is uninspired.

I want more than what's in those images. I would expect Melissa to want something poignant and subtle and nuanced because Sophia obviously means a lot to her. I hate it if the gas induced goodbye hallucination is what David Zabel gave her instead of what she wanted. Seeing Sophia is going to be polarizing anyway because she's such an iconic character and going by the sneak preview of the season premiere, we won't get to see her face on the show. I understand the reason why, but I also think it takes away from the emotional impact if we don't see her eyes.

I want my enthusiasm back because I waited so long for Carol, but those scenes feel underwhelming.

Melissa McBride as ᴄᴀʀᴏʟ ᴘᴇʟᴇᴛɪᴇʀ (S04.E01-16 • 2013-2014)

[my-mt-heart]

A week after Caryl's victory, Melissa McBride wins the poll for Best Actress on an American TV Series 2022 with nearly 11K votes. No matter how little screen time she’s given, her character will ALWAYS be iconic.

But really, she deserves SO much more screen time. Maybe even her own show :P I hope she realizes how much she and Carol mean to the fans and I sincerely hope AMC realizes it now too.

The competition was stiff yet again, so thank you to everyone who voted!!

It’s first & last names (separated for mix & match potential) of characters from iconic late 1970s & 1980s horror movies. I think I started looking for cheesier B-movies to pull from, but yeah it’s been a whole year so I forget.
