Watch the First Episode of “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” For Free

September 15, 2023

Everybody’s favorite zombie slayer, Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), finally has his own show. The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon premiered on September 11, the second spin-off from the flagship series that concluded its run in late 2022. Daryl Dixon episode one is now available for your viewing pleasure, for free, on YouTube.

Daryl Dixon catches up with the crossbow-wielding survivor after his departure from The Commonwealth. Daryl has washed ashore on a new continent and eventually finds himself in Paris, where he quickly makes enemies among the power players of a budding autocratic movement in the City of Lights. In the premiere, Daryl meets Laurent (Louis Puech Scigliuzzi), a young boy whom a group called the Union believes is the Messiah. It’s a lot for a young man to take on, and Daryl is thought to be the messenger fated to deliver Laurent to the Union in Paris. He’s not enthused by the idea.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon comes from creator David Zabel, and it’s more of a slow-burn zombie thriller compared to The Walking Dead. Joining Reed and Scigliuzzi are Clémence Poésy as Isabelle, Laïka Blanc-Francard as Sylvie, Anne Charrier as Genet, Romain Levi as Codron, Adam Nagaitis as Quinn along with Eriq Ebouaney as Fallou and Paloma as Coco.

If you were a fan of the original, or, even just a fan of the lovable outsider Daryl, the new series is sure to delight. For newcomers who loved HBO’s The Last Of Us and want to keep feeding their insatiable hunger for zombies, Daryl Dixon is for you.
