Norman Reedus on Daryl Dixon Hookup With Michonne: "Never Say Never"

 Daryl Dixon and Michonne Stand Together on The Walking Dead Season 4, Episode 4: “Indifference”

Cover your eyes, Caryl shippers — this one's for Team Dixonne.

Because it's not harsh enough to abandon Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) in a bland suburban development on The Walking Dead Season 4, fans are already trying to pair up her Pookie bear, Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), with another woman.

We noticed how, in Episode 4, Michonne (Danai Gurira) gave Daryl the first sparkling smile we've ever seen cross her face when talking about how the color of jasper brings out his eyes.

Well!

Caryl shippers are still waiting to hear how Daryl will react to the news that his longtime flirtmate has been banished. Will he go after her? There are also some Daryl-Beth shippers out there, despite the huge age difference. And now there's the Dixonne fan base. On the surface, Daryl and Michonne seem to have more personality traits in common than Daryl and Carol. They are the sexy, strong but silent types, usually only speaking up to share a pithy soundbite or wiseass remark.


What does Norman Reedus think about the idea of a Daryl/Michonne hookup? “Never say never,” he told The Daily Beast. “She’s a cute girl. I’m not opposed to it.”

Norman referenced their characters’ discussions about The Governor (David Morrissey), how they both went out to look for him (back in the good old days) after Season 3, but only Michonne continued the search. At the end of Episode 4, she told Daryl he was right, the trail had gone cold. She doesn't need to go out anymore.

“In that whole scene, there’s so much of me telling her to stay,” Norman said. “I like the way that played out, when she said, ‘You’re right.’ I don’t even look at her, I’m just like, ‘Good.’ I don’t like it when things get overly sentimental. You think about these characters and their life, it’s just tragedy on tragedy on tragedy. I like the fact that she’s starting to integrate into this group and she’s starting to let things go. It’s nice to see her smile.”

It was a nice moment for them, even if The Gov. trail wasn't really cold — the bleeping guy is right outside the prison!

Still, all this talk about Daryl and Carol or Daryl and Michonne is only going to upset Richonne fans who already pictured Michonne with Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) and baby Judith in a new family photo. Michonne and Rick have perhaps even more sexual tension and more things in common.

Besides, Andrew Lincoln could use something nice like a romance now. Norman told the Daily Beast he'd been getting a lot of Rick hate after Papa Grimes abandoned Carol. "Andy happened to call me the next morning and I’m like, ‘Dude, everyone’s mad at you!’ He goes, ‘I know. I went to my local coffee shop this morning and they were like, ‘Who do you think you are? How could you just leave her on the side of the road like that?’ And [Andy's] like, ‘Just give me my coffee. I stand behind my decision.’”

Ha! Poor Andy. Norman gets worshipped everywhere he goes, he doesn't need dual romances on TV. Let Andy's Rick have some fun — and after being married to nagging Lori for all those years, he deserves some smiles of his own.  Do you agree?

The Walking Dead airs Sunday nights at 9 p.m. ET on AMC.

The Walking Dead: what happened to Baby Judith?

(Warning: The following article contains spoilers for the midseason finale of AMC’s The Walking Dead, which aired on Sunday.)

Would the showrunners of AMC’s The Walking Dead really kill a baby? That’s the question many fans have been asking since watching the MidSeason Finale.

With war breaking out all around them, the group of kids who were responsible for saving infant Judith Grimes and taking her to the bus for evacuation from the prison, apparently leaving her unprotected in her car seat on the ground.

Of course, at the time when they made the decision, things hadn’t escalated quite so terribly out of control as they would later, and there weren’t walkers roaming around the area. Shortly afterwards, though, there were–and when Rick and Carl found the baby’s seat later, there was blood smeared on the edges, pooled in the seat and in a conspicuous puddle nearby. You can see that at left and click to enlarge if you’d like.
Carl and Rick–probably not unreasonably, especially because they didn’t have a whole lot of time to sit around and contemplate the state of things with walkers roaming everywhere and the prison in shambles–assumed that she’d been taken and consumed by walkers–gone without a trace, just like her mother was last season. There was…considerable mourning.


But then, fan theories started to crop up. The baby didn’t make the “in memoriam” montage on Talking Dead. People noticed that the baby’s car seat seemed to have been properly unbuckled to remove the child, rather than left intact or gnawed through, as would be the case with a zombie attack. Suddenly, it kind of seemed like anything could have happened.

What do we think are the most likely scenarios? Well, here they are…



Tyreese has her.
This is, without a doubt, our #1 choice.
As pointed out to us by a fan on the night the episode aired, the kids who left Judith unattended run off in what appears to be the direction of the car seat as the battle wanes. They’re followed by Tyreese, who tells them that they’re going the wrong way.

We never see the kids again, but we do get a shot of Tyreese, from behind, running toward the bus and carrying something like a football–protected with both hands and in front of his chest. Some fans have even claimed they can see Judith’s head if you pause that scene at the right moment, although we haven’t been able to replicate that result.

Beth and Daryl

Beth got off the bus to find Judith and later, after the bus had left and she connected with Daryl, told him that she was looking for the kids. Could she have found Judith, put her someplace safe and then returned to action to find the kids who had abandoned the baby? Seems farfetched, but it’s one we’ve heard a number of fans seize on…and who doesn’t want to see Daryl spending more time with the Little Asskicker?

Michonne

Michonne is one of the characters (along with Tyreese and Bob Stookey) who were so bloodied by the end of the battle that she could plausibly have left that mess on the car seat.

She also, toward the start of this season when the plague storyline was just starting to take off, had that emotional connection with Judith that not a lot has really been done with since. Being, apparently, on her own again for the first time since she met Andrea, Michonne would face unique challenges dealing with a baby–needy, loud and all the things babies tend to be–while on her own in the world of The Walking Dead.

Bob, Sasha and Maggie

Bob, freshly shot shortly before the car seat was discovered, is probably the best candidate to actually leave that level of blood on the seat.

It would seem like a lot to pile on that group, though; Bob’s alcoholism (and the fact that he’s a lot of people’s odds-on favorite to be the one who was feeding those walkers at the start of the season) along with a still-recovering Sasha and Maggie, preoccupied looking for her husband makes their situation the least suited to adding another challenge and another character.

She’s dead.

Look, it’s the obvious answer and even if it seems unlikely given the evidence above, there are two things working in its favor: Robert Kirkman cryptically told viewers there was “a lot of blood” in the car seat when asked whether she could have survived…

…and the preview for the midseason premiere has no sign of her with any of the groups.

Now, obviously the ad was never going to give up her location if she is, indeed alive…but it’s telling that many of the characters, including Tyreese, are shown from camera angles that would make Judith very difficult to hide.

If she’s dead, it’s probably a fair bet that the things made to look like she could have made it out–particularly the car seat straps–were done because the network wasn’t comfortable showing the body onscreen, or something like that. Keeping the gore as far from the infant as possible could have been a company directive.

"The Walking Dead" returns on Sunday, Feb. 9!

What Will Happen When The Show Returns On Sunday, Feb. 9?

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

“The Walking Dead” aired its explosive midseason finale on Sunday, Dec. 1, wrapping up the bloody zombie drama for 2013. But the AMC series isn't done with its fourth season. Rick and the gang are set to return on Sunday, Feb. 9, with the second half of season 4.

So, what can fans expect in 2014? New characters and a new place to live!

“The Walking Dead” has added a long list of characters to season 4, some from the comics and some not. While a couple of new faces have graced the screen so far -- Bob, Meghan, Lily, Tara, Pete and Mitch -- a great deal of the newcomers will be appearing during the second half of the season:

Dr. Eugene Porter – In the comics Dr. Porter is an “out-of-shape” science teacher who convinces a group of survivors that he’s working for the U.S. Government and knows the origins of the zombie plague.

Rosita Espinosa – Rosita is a “tough and beautiful” survivor who was introduced in Issue 53 of “The Walking Dead” comics.

Abraham – In the comics Abraham is traveling with Dr. Porter and Rosita, his girlfriend. The role is reportedly a “massively important one.”

John Tyler – In his early 30s, John Tyler is said to be “vulgar with rough edges,” but if you can look past that he’s also wise.

Wayne Kesey – Also in his early 30s, Wayne Kesey is very smart but unfortunately also an “experienced liar.”

Jordana Barraza – In her late 20s, Jordana Barraza is a tough and beautiful Hispanic woman who is “shamed about her past.”

It’s unknown how Rick’s group will be meeting these new characters, but “Walking Dead” viewers must remember that they no longer have their home at the prison. The group was forced to flee the grounds following the Governor’s attack. But besides losing their home, they also have another problem -- they lost each other.

After the zombie hoard passed through Hershel’s farm at the end of season 2, the separated group met up at the highway where they left Sophia. Since they had an emergency escape bus set up for quick movement in episode 8, it’s assumed that they designated a special spot to regroup. However, with some individuals sick and others left to flee on foot, fans will have to wait and see who makes it and where they find each other.

Watch the trailer below for the February episodes and let us know what you think in the comments section:

'Walking Dead' Star Andrew Lincoln: on whats to come

Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) in 'The Walking Dead' Season 4 episode, 'Indifference.'

'Walking Dead' Star Andrew Lincoln: The Most Controversial Episode We've Ever Done Is Still to Come!

Andrew Lincoln speaks to Yahoo T.V Sun, Dec 1, 2013 2:57 PM PST

The First Half of Season 4 involved  Eight episodes of new zombie threats, an infection that threatened to wipe out the entire prison group, and a bitter rivalry with the Governor comes to a head in the "Walking Dead" midseason finale.

Series star Andrew Lincoln, who finished filming Season 4 last weekend and is back home in London reading movie scripts before he heads back to begin Season 5, talked to Yahoo TV on Thanksgiving eve about this season’s unique storytelling formats, and what promised to be a shocking and sad midseason finale.

He also hints that the second half of the season, which premieres in February, is even more of a departure from storytelling of the past, and teases that it features an episode he considers the series’ most controversial ever.

Before the Season 4 premiere, you told us that the midseason finale, which airs this weekend, was the most ambitious episode the series had attempted. Do you still feel that way?

I've just done the season finale, so I'm not so sure anymore. [Laughs.] This is quite a big episode coming up. But then I think from this episode onwards, it spins off into a different orbit, the show, which for everybody concerned has been thrilling. It's so neat that we've just … [viewers] don't get to see it obviously until next year, but the season finale is just, it’s so clever what [showrunner Scott Gimple] and the writers have done. It's just really clever.

We do have a tendency to try and up the ante. I will say that the story, as you can tell from the structure of the first seven, the Governor and our people are about to meet proper. I really can't go into great detail, but it is probably the biggest we've attempted in every aspect, the midseason finale. Saying that, the last episodes this season, I'm still recovering from. But I do think loyal fans of the show won't be disappointed by this midseason finale. I think it's a showdown that we always promised. I think this time we certainly deliver....

Certainly you've identified something that needs to be addressed, and fear not. I think you won't be disappointed. I really don't want to spoil anything. But I will say that I was in my trailer with a few of the actors — Norman [Reedus] and Steven [Yeun], and a few others. I won't mention too many names, because obviously you'll know who may or may not be alive. [Laughs.] But we were so excited, because there's so much drama this season. There were so many open-ended, extraordinary storylines that even our mouths are drooling at the prospect of what's going to happen in the future.

Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) in 'The Walking Dead' episode, 'This Sorrowful Li …

I think that's been one of the most satisfying things, shooting this season, is realizing that Scott, who is orchestrating all these 16 hours, has really gone to town with the most dramatic combination of characters and circumstances, because you can tell he loves the story. He's honoring, as a fan of the comic books, some of the most extraordinary and challenging and controversial story arcs in the comics, and playing them out in a new fashion in the TV show. So rest assured, Rick's call with Carol … it’s there.

You are less than a week out of finishing Season 4. How do you feel?

[I’m in] an incredible place. It's relief, mixed with sadness, mixed with excitement, because we now know the full shape of the season, and it's an extraordinary season. It's one of the most exciting and diverse and bold and brave seasons we've done since the first. Also, it's a tough seven and a half months. It's strange how, instantly, you get back a couple days and have a couple of good nights' sleep, and you start missing it. It's such an intoxicating job, and also the people … a lot of them have been on it for four years, as I have. We've got this incredible bond. Also, it's made all the more exciting by the fact that the world is watching it as it goes out. It's a real thrill ride, actually.

Before this season, you mentioned there was an exciting and very interesting new way the stories were going to unfold. We’ve seen what you were talking about, with episodes that have focused in on certain characters. What did you think when you first heard this was how the story was going to unfold?

I was thrilled. I think it's bold, and I think it's a necessarily thing. We're four years into a show. We've been blessed with incredible [ratings] throughout those years. I think we owe it to the fans to change it up a bit. One of the things that attracted me to the project was always the fact that it was a story that kept changing. Not only the cast keeps changing and recycling and moving forward, but the story. It's a very, very smart move by Scott and the writers and AMC to do this. As for me, reading the script, and I hope the audience has the same reaction, I was always behind. It was always ahead of me. I couldn't second-guess it. I think that that's a brilliant sign that the writers are still able to do this at this stage in the show.

I will stress this as well. You haven't even seen the half of it yet. The back eight is more radical than ever before. It's almost a tale of two seasons. It really is that radical, the difference between the first eight and the back eight.

The show is always incredibly intense, and while it’s hard to believe we’re already almost through eight episodes, so much has happened, so many huge things, that it feels like we've seen 20 episodes.

I'm glad you say that, because we wanted to get the balance between action, horror, and character. There was anxiety when we were filming it: "Are we slowing it down too much? Is there going to be enough of that?" But then you realize just in the first two episodes how much you learn about characters that have been in the show for maybe a couple of seasons. The storytelling and the character development by the writers this year has been magnificent. I'm so thrilled you say that, because I feel the same way. I feel that so much is learned.

And really, trust me, I think that three of the strongest episodes we've done this season are yet to come. Probably four. There are two episodes that I absolutely adore in the back eight, one of which I think is going to be the most controversial episode that we've probably ever been involved in, and that's saying something. [Laughs.]

“The Walking Dead” airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on AMC.

Q&A – Scott Wilson (Hershel Greene)

Veteran actor Scott Wilson, who plays Hershel Greene on AMC’s The Walking Dead, talks about how the show has eclipsed his other iconic roles and his recommended reading list for the apocalypse.

Q: You’ve starred in classics like In the Heat of the Night and In Cold Blood. Has your fame from The Walking Dead surpassed the recognition you get for all those other movies? 

A: Certainly I get recognized a lot, that’s a new condition of life. It’s not totally new, but to the degree it is now, it is new. I’m probably more recognizable with the beard and the ponytail. A lot of people in airports recognize me too — a lot of the agents when I’m passing through. And you have more of people stopping and wanting to take pictures of you and you saying, “I have a plane to catch.” The fans are really nice and they’re upfront and the people that talk to me are certainly pro-Hershel. I’ll hear things like, “Ah, you grew your leg back!”

Q: Have you been getting interesting fan mail or seen any tributes to Hershel that you’ve particularly enjoyed?

A: People respond to Hershel everywhere. What’s really neat is that people have said they watch it with their families. Fathers and sons watch it together and it gives them some common ground to have conversation together.

Q: Hershel has changed a lot from the farm owner we met in Season 2. Do you prefer the new Hershel, or the old one?

A: It’s been a fun journey. From the beginning on the farm, he was much more of a tight character. Everyone in the show has lost enormously; they’ve lost family members and daughters and sisters and loved ones. But because of being on the farm, his losses were as physical as anyone else’s. That was his farm, where he lived and raised his family. So you saw him lose something that had been in the family for a long time.

Q: What were you told about Hershel going into Season 4?

A: The only thing I was really told was that I would have a prosthetic leg. So that made me happy.

Q: Things get pretty ugly for Hershel at the prison. Did you ever petition for a return to the farm?

A: I had always thought that I would like to have that return. It would be a good journey to have him going back to the farm to see what was left of it.

Q: Last year you spoke to us about how your golf game needed work. After another year going up against Andrew Lincoln and David Morrissey, did it get any better?

A: I have seen improvement, but it was on their part. They keep getting better, and the distance keeps getting further between us. They still enjoy playing with me; I guess it helps them realize how much better they could be. They could be not as good as they are, and I point that out.
