Hmmm stuck in Spain eh?
As a standalone story arc I enjoyed it, as part of the Walking Dead I hated it. If that makes sense!
and also, KILLING A CAT?!!!!!! :o :o :o :o :o Sacrilege!
Carol found a new love, sort of like a Spanish Dwight! - Paz had a sort of Rosita about her which I liked.
7/10
Probably best that next season is the last.

Finished 3x05I think they distill something like corn? But you'd think homemade shit would ruin the motors after awhile, right? We're supposed to just suspend disbelief and not question the plot holes I guess, LOL.
Didn't take long for Daryl to get the water back did it LOL
Also, should I be asking where all this petrol comes from for all these motor bikes or just go with the flow?!

Well that town went to sh1t!.
Poor old Cooper all he wanted was to sail a boat to America with Daryl.
episode 3 was a bit slow but episode 4 made up for it with the town being invaded
episode 3 - 6/10
episode 4 - 8/10

I enjoyed this episode more. The scenery is beautiful and we are introduced to this seasons characters. I thought that Major Fred guy was going to be the villain until the King turned up. And we have a new cat in the Walking Dead universe. Maybe Carol can take it with her when they leave.
My favourite line was Daryl eating and trying to stop Carol asking difficult questions "pass the pork. El Porko!" that is so me "El fridge magnet" is what I said in a tourist shop. ;D
Its not what I was expecting but I guess some bright spark thought in their head "Daryl in a spaghetti western with zombies would be cool".

red bus - check
black taxi - check
red telephone box - check
SOD OFF sign - check
Its so token British it made me laugh.
Then you had Stephan Merchant as 'Julian' shame he didn't last long. Another character killed by association with our regulars.
Now they are in Spain with more nutters it seems with bone heads.
It wasn't a great episode they really are running out of ideas. Will carry on watching for now

I have just arrived back from holiday, I visited Mont Saint Michael in France which was the main base in Season 2 of Darryl Dixon. Whilst everyone else was more interested in the history I kept thinking oh thats where Daryl went, thats where Darryl was imprisoned LOL!I'm so jealous- sounds like a great trip!
I haven't started season 3 yet but I did also visit Vigo, Santendar, La Coruna and Gijon in northern Spain. Anyone know if Daryl was filmed in these places?
From Google AI:
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 is set primarily in Spain, with specific locations including Madrid, Galicia, Aragón, Catalonia, and Valencia. The season begins with a brief stop in a CGI-enhanced London, England, but the main setting shifts to Spain after a shipwreck. Key filming locations in Spain include the historic city of Belchite, Sepúlveda (for the village of Solaz del Mar), and areas used for spaghetti westerns, such as the Tabernas Desert.

So if season 4 is confirmed it appears it will at least start in Spain. I was hoping more of an American storyline with a few old friends appearing. I assume money and a lack of ratings is making that impossible.I think fans deserve a payoff for the years of watching. The franchise needs to start delivering closure. What caused the virus? Does a cohesive civilization get rebuilt? Is there a complete global collapse? At the very least, do our mains carve out some peace? It’s hard to stay emotionally invested when it's evident they aren't working towards any resolution.
I still watch out of nostalgia but honestly the concept is been beat to death. And eye patch guy does nothing for me.
Maybe I’ll live long enough to see the remake because that’s probably the best path forward. Kill it now and bring it back later like Star Wars, Alien and others. JMO
This season looked beautiful and the performances were solid, but I don't think the overall story is giving fans what they want at this point.

I am conflicted about this episode. I realize that all things that I would hand wave in TWD universe are hard for me to do with Daryl and Carol roaming around Europe. Three years in, I still find it preposterous that they are in Europe. Daryl finding his way to Barcelona without help. A leper community surviving all these years without medical treatment. How are all these people infected? The disease is not easily transmitted. Okay, I'm done.
I think they actually handled Daryl ending up in France really well. I always felt the most logical answer to the constant question of how he would get there was by boat. Having him get kidnapped and put on a boat to France was even better because - unless he found evidence Rick was in France - there was no reason for him to try to get there on his own. They're 12 years into the ZA so I do find it believable that some people are trying to re-establish traveling - we'd already seen that the CR has helicopters. Boats, ships, planes, etc... - it just makes sense to me. But they didn't handle Carol going to France as well. There was just no reason for her to leave the CW and having her say it was because it was "too quiet" was just weird. Daryl was out traveling around the CW districts for a year before leaving to go exploring and that didn't bother her at all. But now he's a week late and it's suddenly "too quiet". Just didn't make sense. Plus the plot convenience of them landing in just the right city and immediately finding Genet's group - too much coincidence.
I also don't have any issue with Daryl going to Barcelona on his own. Antonio gave him a map and I believe Daryl is capable of following a map. Even if the words are Spanish, all he needed was for Antonio to show him where they were - starting point and ending point. He can follow it from there. Plus, the promo for episode 6 shows he won't continue to make that journey alone - perhaps Paz had the same concerns you did. lol
As for the leper community, I don't find that surprising either. Leprosy is not highly contagious, but certain living conditions can make it more easily transmitted - i.e. poverty. People living in a post apocalyptic world - especially in the early years - would be living in similar conditions. Consider the conditions at the prison in S3 - it was dirty, no plumbing, food and medicine were scarce, etc... Poor hygiene, malnutrition, and lack of medicine/vaccines create conditions ripe for diseases we no longer consider serious to crop back up. We really should have seen more outbreaks of other diseases over the course of a decade.
I haven't been posting week to week, but I am really enjoying season 3 so far. The last 2 episodes in particular were really good. I loved the battle against Los Primitivos and Daryl showing the leper community how to fight for themselves was really cool. The fights on the train were great too - I love when they add a little bit of humor. Daryl and that guy taking a minute to catch their breath was so funny. Little Rosa was so adorable - I loved her counting down 4 bullets/4 demons. That was a side quest and doesn't really tie into the overall story, but I think it was needed for Daryl to overcome his emotional shut down and it was something he had to do on his own. It is typical for him to shut down emotionally for a while when he's grieving and he needed that reminder of who he is to move past it.
I can't believe there are only 2 episodes left this season. I'm really excited to see how it all pans out. The King and Fede need to pay for La Ofrenda - especially Fede trading Justina to protect himself. Roberto and Justina are such a cute couple - I'm rooting for them. And I'm really enjoying Carol and Antonio building up a romance as well. I'm super curious what this feud between Fede and Antonio is all about - I'm guessing right now that they were both in love with Maria and her choosing Antonio is a big part of it, but it feels like there's more to it. And I really hope Paz is able to rescue Elena so they can be together.
Post by: Hez on October 07, 2025, 09:16:56 am
Was I the only one that giggled a bit when Fede told his mother not to worry about his wound, because, "Tis but a scratch?" I was like, "Did he really just say that? In this context? Awesome!"No! I laughed.
I find this season to be funnier than any other Walking Dead season we've seen. Not goofy but wittier or something.

The story itself I liked. I never doubted that Daryl would help the community. Other than Glenn, he has always been the most gentle hearted the original male leads. I was surprised by his plan with the rope, etc. It was very well done. I thought he would take a couple people with him to attack the train, but I guess, he is the hero. It was funny when he and the bad guy mutually decided to take a break before fighting each other. I didn't note if the woman survived. I was glad the iguana did, but it will die in the cold weather. Maybe someone will find it first and it will be a meal. I am always surprised when I see people keep iguanas as pets, I think of them as food.
I was surprised when Roberto said that Justina was forced to go rather than volunteering to leave. It changed my perspective on Fede. He is not a good man doing his best. Daryl or Carol are going to have kill him. I cracked up at Antonio reluctantly acknowledging that the healers were also witches. Too bad the grandmother saw the necklace and pendant. Does she know the truth about Justina being forced to leave? I couldn't tell. When she arrived, I was worried that Valentina would give it away that Daryl wasn't at the beach.
Carol clearly likes Roberto and he feels the same. She deserves some happiness so she should hit that before the inevitable terrible ending occurs. As of right now, I don't see a way of sailing to America until Valentina goes with them. I vaguely recall that there was a ship that went to France from the east coast in earlier seasons? What happened to that?

Anyhow, I loved how the town was shown, with all its Civil War damage, stillness, and sadness. I loved that Daryl once again almost immediately bonded with a child -- there is a child-like spirit to Daryl. In spite of the abuse that he endured, the child in him survived and children see that, trust it, communicate with him on an instinctive level that adults (for the most part) cannot comprehend.
I loved seeing Carol quiet and still back at Solaz, not because she was trying to gather information, but because, for once, I think she feels safe here.
Post by: Tensel on September 29, 2025, 10:30:43 am
I know Roberto is hurt and upset, but to abandon his father and friends in the middle of a fight for their lives was ridiculous. I really want to know the real story between Fede and Antonio. It is ridiculous that an old grudge should keep Roberto and Justina apart. I wonder if they are related.
I knew Daryl would end up going with Carol. He is just being stubborn which I am actually enjoying. It something different from Daryl. I was surprised that Paz didn't go with them.
I was glad when Valentina told Carol and Daryl that it was not feasible for them to sail across the Atlantic with no experience. Of course, that should have warned me that the young experience sailor was going to die.

Loved that the Primitivo that they managed to capture had a Rioplatense (Argentine) accent. Guess the man had been visiting Spain when the Plague started, and he went feral in the end. I would love to know his story, though I assume it shall remain a mystery.

I think it's possible they are moving girls around the country, to prevent inbreeding. What troubles me is it seems the Ofrenda has been happening pretty regularly (sounds like once a year?) with girls being sent out of the town to wherever it is they are being sent. But the town has not received girls (or young men, if the numbers are skewed such that they need more young men -- I can't really tell, tbh) from the Ofrenda, just keeps sending girls out.
So what is the point? To keep rich old men supplied with pretty young girls from the provinces because such is the nature of power? It wouldn't surprise me. It has happened in the past, happens today (FLDS), and is the subject of dystopian fiction (The Handmaid's Tale) due to its believability.
But this is The Walking Dead Universe, and adding a macabre walker twist to it also would not surprise me.
Gawd, I really hope it isn't true, but you have convinced me that it is a real possibility, especially when I remember that the real plan last season in France was to sacrifice Laurent. Ugh. The King's wife must not know the truth. They take the girls out and she thinks that they have gone to other towns, but instead they are being sacrificed. We will find out soon enough. No doubt Roberto is going to go crazy when he finds out that Justine went with them. I expect that he will follow them with his father, Daryl, Carol, Paz, and few others in tow.
Post by: ysolde on September 23, 2025, 11:19:10 pm
Aargh, that is horrible! This hadn't occurred to me. I hope it isn't true. I figured that the girls were being married of to older men since the "King" had a young wife. The wife did tell her lover that she found out where she was from talking to one of the girls from her town and she made it seem like the girls were okay. It could be that she lied, but I don't see how she could be so tolerate of her husband if he was sacrificing young girls. Unless, she doesn't know the truth. She might think that the girls have gone to other villages, but they really are killed instead.

As soon as I saw The Offering, and heard that Justina had somehow miraculously been spared for years, I knew the game was rigged. I also figured she would swap herself for the other girl, given her sense of guilt.
The big question is, what is the true nature of La Ofrenda: there was some vague mention made of the girls being sent off to be married, but not to whom. My suspicion is they are "married" to a walker in some sort of attempt to appease the gods/ keep the walkers at bay situation. IOW, offered up to the walkers as a sacrifice. This would be in line with the sacrifice of virgins to the dragon in 1981's Dragonslayer, and how the names of some girls were kept off the list.

It was when Antonio mentions Barcelona, and Carol says: "Barcelona? I have a friend whose brother lived there." Friend is Rick & brother is Jeffrey. I actually read that little side comic about him and I haven't even finished the main comic! I think Last Summer's Sweetheart put it up on the old forum for us.
Ah, I didn't pick that up. Actually, I forgot that Rick even had a brother.

The two women having sex when her husband was in the town was so crazy, but I guess they were desperate to have time together.
I wanted the captain to explain to Daryl and Roberto that sailing is not as easy as having a functional sail boat. Maybe she intends to sail them across the Atlantic. I laughed when she kissed her two lovers.

Spain does look gorgeous. I love the different color palettes they use in this series.
This episode really highlighted Daryl & Carol's differences when it comes to their shared values of protecting the vulnerable from abuse. Carol is more uncompromising when it comes to protecting the innocent. She will destabilize everything if she has to. She acts from her trauma. Daryl is a bit more pragmatic, he weighs the risk. Maybe the line-up situation has him thinking: "if we stop this, do we doom everyone else?"
I liked it. I do wish we'd start moving from "this is what we have to do to survive" themes to "this is how we rebuild society" themes but I don't know if we'll ever see that.

I said this to my husband and he said "that was a motor boat, this is a sail boat, completely different". I'm like - Ok, Captain Ahab, calm down before you harpoon the couch.
As someone used to sail, ITA with your husband. Sailing is nothing like driving a motor boat. I love sailing and miss the hell out of it. There is nothing like cutting through the water on a perfect day with the wind behind your back, but it is insanely dangerous even for experienced sailors. Getting hit by the boom like Julian did, happens all the time, especially with inexperienced sailors. To sail across the Atlantic with little experience without a GPS, weather reports, etc. is basically "dead man walking."
Post by: Hez on September 15, 2025, 01:00:20 pm
I'm pretty sure Carol does know how to sail. She spent a whole lot of time sailing (I think the group she was with were fishermen or something) between seasons of the mothership show, IIRC. Now, sailing off the SE coast of the US (not sure how far they went) and sailing across the North Atlantic are entirely different things.I said this to my husband and he said "that was a motor boat, this is a sail boat, completely different".

I really enjoyed episode 2. The young lovers running away and their fear of being torn apart was moving. The whole tense dynamic of that community felt realist. It felt like they were really trying to do the best they could to survive. Giving up one young girl didn't feel like a huge price to pay for safety or resources even if they broke the hearts of their parents. I get that. It isn't like Negan trying humiliate and brutally oppress them, but it is insidious, destroying their sense of community as it tries to maintain the façade of happiness.. I was surprised uncle was smiling so hard with no fear when he opened the ribbon, then when his man took the ribbons off the pigs, I began suspect that the "lottery" was rigged.I'm pretty sure Carol does know how to sail.

Daryl trying to stop Carol from speaking her mind at the meal was hilarious. He clearly wants to stay out of the drama. Just leave and fix the boat. Although I don't know how he and Carol who don't know how to sail could possibly make their way back to the U.S. alive. I hope Daryl threw the bodies of all those men into the cage with the walkers.

Loved Episode 3, even though, let's face it, that was not a town in Galicia. Galicia is green, wet, cold (even in summer). I know the production is going for a Spaghetti Western look, and that they filmed outside Segovia (in Central Spain), but it's like shooting in Arizona and pretending it's Ireland because you want the whole thing to have a "Cowboy" look. It just makes no sense. Anyhow . . .They actually DID film in Galicia, as well as the Aragón, Catalonia and Valencia regions. https://www.amcnetworks.com/press-releases/the-walking-dead-daryl-dixon-season-3-begins-production-in-spain
So, did they spend all that time filming there only to put on a yellow filter post production? That's crazy.

I think that Carol has opened her heart since reaching some kind of peace over Sophia. The way she was looking with warmth at the two young lovers, while Daryl was "whatever." LOL! I prefer this version of Carol. She seems more human if though a bit more reckless. Daryl, on the other hand, just seems over it all. He just wants to go home.

I liked the references to Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" here. As long as the town goes along with La Ofrenda, they get weapons and some ethanol (which I guess has a variety of uses). So (almost) everyone goes along to get along, and we see what happens to those who don't.
Loved the interplay between Carol and Daryl. So much of it just body language, but it was clear that each of them knew exactly where the other was going with this when she was speaking up and he was going to check on the boat. They know each other too well.[/font]

I thought it was good too. It was like hooking up with a couple of old friends after not seeing them for awhile. Can't wait to see more of old Espana.
I really hope we get to see just how multicultural (and multilingual) Spain is. From Galicia in the Northwest where they are now, an ancient Celtic area, to the far South in Cadiz, which goes back to the Phoenicians and the Greeks. And the central area, of course (looks like we are going to see Segovia with its Alcazar (palace) and (iirc) Roman aqueduct (that would be a great way for a small city to survive and maybe even thrive post ZA), and down into Seville in the south with its romantic, early 20th century architecture and vibe (it's where the wealthy had their winter homes). So gorgeous.

Please use this thread to talk about episode discussions. I will check with Nerdy to see if she can grant me more powers to make child boards, etc so we can organize it better.
Thank you, Hez!

Did anyone watch tonight? I thought it was good. Once again, good visuals, and I am curious where they are going with the Galicia/ Costa de Muerte aspect of the story. It looks from the preview like they are going to be traveling through a lot of Spain (much as they did in the France version, where we got to see a lot of post-ZA France), so this should be really interesting, to see the different regions and cultures of Spain.I thought it was good too.
