Yall shup up, majority of these ships aren't happening except richonne.
Here's the truth - Daryl wouldn't date a woman like Carol because she's too old, not hot and is way passed child bearing age. In a zombie apocalypse that will be important to keep the human race going. Michonne is sexy and bad ass, but she's already giving Rick his jollies so Daryl won't go there. Michonne obviously wants Rick's stuff and thangs, not Daryl's. Beth is the best choice since she's single and beautiful, but it probably won't last since Daryl will eventually want a real woman. Needless to say, Daryl won't fit with any of these women long term.
Victoria: You're not going to believe me now, but after I typed that out I actually meant to include Michonne. I know Daryl and Michonne have a bond. I didn't mean to disregard it. I was just so anxious to reply to the comment against Carol that I wasn't thinking long enough before I submitted.
"Daryl did the same thing with the marauders in the finale. He was willing to protect the people he loved in Carl and Rick."
I voted for Caryl earlier, but it's pretty pathetic that you conveniently left out Michonne. Daryl was willing to protect Carl, Rick and Michonne because he cares about her too. Some Caryl fans are so transparent and I hate being part of this ship sometimes. I'm thankful that 95% of us aren't purposely trying to start ship wars with more ships. The Bethyl/Caryl war is bad enough, let's not try to start with the Dixonne shippers. Daryl loves Carol, but he also cares for other people in the group including Michonne.
Mandy: What you said about Carol is absolute bollocks. She is a SURVIVOR. She did what she had to do to protect the people she loved. Daryl did the same thing with the marauders in the finale. He was willing to protect the people he loved in Carl and Rick. He, too, is a survivor. Daryl and Carol are cut from the same cloth. Beth provided him with a hope that he needed when he was at his lowest, yes, but that doesn't mean that he has formed romantic feelings for her in the timespan of 5-6 days (as is the amount of time spent in real time on the show)!!! That is not who Daryl is. In fact, Daryl turned into an idiot while he was with Beth. Since when does the real Daryl open a door that has walkers that you could see on the other side? Beth was feeding him all this stuff about believing in the good and he basically lost HIMSELF by listening to her. Carol is Daryl's rock. He needs that rock. And when he finds it again, he'll find a balance that he lost while she was gone.
Also, you are making things up about what Norman said. He even claimed that Beth and Daryl were connecting "but not romantically" and I love how you conveniently leave that out of your argument. The reason they are teasing the idea NOW is because they know that the Carylers are upset. They are doing it to get a rise out of US, not you. There is no way Beth and Daryl is where the show will end up. They know damn well they would lose all respect from most of the critics. It is the way it is.
I think a lot of people are wanting Caryl together based on what we saw in season 2 and 3. The fact is, season 4 took both Daryl and Carol on TOTALLY different paths. They just aren't the same anymore and them connecting over a similar path isn't enough (and frankly, I used to find them TOO similar and now not enough, so I guess I'll never get that ship..lol). Daryl's arc has him finding faith and hope and sacrificing himself for his friends and finding Beth his "light at the end of the tunnel". Carol has, bless her heart, murdered 3 people in like the span of 2 months or so (regardless of whether she was right or not, that's what happened). Robert Kirkman said TODAY that Carol has basically lost her humanity. That she's went down a very dark path. Daryl doesn't need that AT ALL. Carol's arc has taken her to a place where she's so far removed from any romantic relationship, with anyone. At this point I'm wondering if they are actually planning on going her comic route because how do you come back from some of that stuff?, Melissa McBride also said she feels Carol will change and be different after this. Daryl would be sucked into that and as we've seen lately, he's completely fine with hanging out and listening to someone sing to him. He's fine hold hands and giving piggy back rides and trying to lure a dog in so they can pet him. Is that the Daryl people want? Who knows, but it's the route the writers AND Norman want to take him in. It's no coincidence that Norman is suddenly open to a romance as soon as Still aired. He's also been hitting it over our heads that Daryl views Beth as a woman and Kirkman/Gimple have been making sure to keep the bethyl shippers invested. Why else have Daryl have multiple "bethyl" moments in later episodes when she wasn't even there? Kirkman more or less let every know that if Beth comes back (she is) they'd explore the relationship and see where Daryl and Beth stands. he also said it was ambiguous much like Caryl WAS (which makes it seem like that is over) . Anyway, this is just a long rambling way of saying I think Daryl and Beth is the plan they are going with in season 5 and I am 100% on board..lol
I actually can read, yes. I'll apologize if I put words in your mouth about Caryl. But I still say it is a shallow comment to make. Even if she weren't the prettiest (which is all a matter of opinion because in my opinion, I think she is --the-- prettiest) why would you even bring it up at all? Who cares who is 'prettier' than who? We are discussing who Daryl should be with based on the characters and to me it has always been and will always be Carol, no matter if she looked like a squid. He's in love with her. That's all that matters imo. And I gladly admit I take my couple seriously. That is not an insult to me if you intended it as one.
Anne can you read? I never said that I didn't think she was among the pretty girls. I just don't think she is the prettiest out of all of them and I think Maggie, Michonne, Beth, Rosita and Sasha are more attractive. I also said that Melissa WASN'T unattractive. It wasn't a comment against Caryl because I actually like the idea of Carol and Daryl getting it on, but I just didn't agree that Carol was the prettiest out of all of the women on the show. I like the ship, but some of you take this crap too seriously.
GwenluvsTWD - That is absolutely the most shallow and ridiculous argument I have ever heard. I can't believe you actually think it's valid as a comment against Caryl.
First of all, MMB --is-- gorgeous, you need glasses if you think she is not among the prettiest on the show. Secondly, what the hell does it matter anyway?? Daryl --loves-- Carol. He has found someone who understands him and accepts him and makes him feel worthwhile as a human being. And I don't care what anyone says he --has-- fallen in love with her for who she is. She is the first one that has ever made him feel like he deserved anything. She is the only one who will love him the way he needs to be loved. And he when he finds her again, he will let her know.
Caryl forever.
HOW FREAKING STUPID!!!!!!!
To the person who said Daryl should be with Beth because he's emotionally stunted....Why the HELL would you put a man with emotional problems with a teen?!!! She isn't even out of the acne stage yet and up till now her biggest problem has been geometry. Now you're going to expect her to guide a man wifh all the oroblems Daryl has through them all?!!! Are you freaking serious?!! Her biggest duty in life had been feeding horses and gathering chicken eggs. Shecan't handle helping a man 2 1/2 decades older with emotional problems.The only one who can do that is Carol who is only 3 YEARS OLDER and is the one who got him to open up and trust again. She is the reason he has come so far and he is the reason she has grown also and THAT is according to Kirkman. Beth could never do that. She's a freaking teenager!!!! Good lord!!!!
Carol is not an unattractive woman, but she is not the prettiest. There are five women who are better looking than her on the show.
OMG!!!! Carol is NOT NOT NOT in her sixties and Daryl is NOT NOT NOT in his twenties or thirties!!!! Watch season 2 when Merle states Daryl's age. He is only a couple of years younger than Carol. If they had grown up in the same town they would have been in high school together!!!! Daryl is an old guy, not a twenty-something rockstar. Him screwing a girl 4 years older than Carl turns my stomach. What's wrong with you perverted numnuts?!!!
What is wrong with all you people wanting to see a middleaged man in his forties crawling all over a kid who is only 4 years older than Carl?!! Lets see how romantic it is when the 43-year-old neighborhood perv down the block tries having sex with YOUR young, innocent teen daughter. Daryl is not in his twenties or thirties. Merle stated his age loud and clear in season 2. Quit trying to turn Daryl into a dirtbag perv who can't keep his hands off a kid. Besides, Emily Kinney herself said Beth ia a really young teenage girl who finds herself travelling with this old dude. THAT is Emily Kinney herself describing a relationship that is NOT a romance!!!! Death to the sick, perverted, disgusting Deth ship. Bethyl DOES NOT EXIST!!!! Ask Emily. She shoukd know!!!!
If she was more attractive?? She's the prettiest woman on the show! She's gorgeous! And no, she's not 55-60! Look at her character profile-thingy, it's says she's in her ''early to mid 40s'' so between 40-45. Daryl is in his ''mid 30s to early 40s'' so between 35-40, but seriously, look at his face, he looks way more close to 40 than to 35, so clearly early 40s, he not that young! Being handsome doesn't make you younger! So your argument about her being too old is total bullshit, because she clearly is not! And Beth is 18! So maybe you don't wanna see Daryl with Carol (btw, your statement is wrong by saying nobody wants to see that!), but I surely don't wanna see Daryl with a girl he could be the father to! That's just wrong!
I wasn't joking. Carol is way older than 40 - 45, she is at least 55 - 60. Hershel being 10 years older than her is not a problem in my eyes. I tried to say it nicely before, but the truth is that no one wants to see a woman who looks as old as Carol with a young guy like Daryl. If she was a more attractive older woman, then maybe. Maggie is with Glenn, Rosita is with the red haired man, Tyrese's sister likes Bob and Michonne is kind of with Rick. I think he fits better with Beth or someone new.
Are you fucking kidding me?? Hershel was about 25-30 years older than Carol! He was about 70 and she's between 40-45! And as Daryl is about 40, it makes much more sense for him to be with Carol! Beth is like 22 years younger than him, she' only 18, and still act like 15. Emily Kinney herself sais that she was just a teenage girl hanging out with an old dude (Her own words!!)... And Carol and Daryl have been building a bond since the beginning, you can't even compare 3 seasons to 2 episodes.. That's just plain stupid!
Carol is too old for Daryl and they just don't match. Carol and Hershel would have made more sense as a couple.
I am allll about Caryl but I'm not going to say anything nasty about Beth. I have no reason to hate her.
Daryl should be with Carol. I love the Daryl/Michonne brotp and the Daryl/Beth big bro/lil sis relationship. But romantically as partners: Daryl and Carol all the way!
Beth can't act or sing? Lol, I'd like to see you doing half the things she does. Oh wait, you can't, that's why you're here pathetically trhowing hate.
Michonne would be too threatening??? Michonne and Daryl are very similar and have a lot in common. Not once did Michonne come off threatening to Daryl in any of their scenes together. Do I think they like each other in a romantic way? No, she loves Rick. I don't think Daryl likes anyone romantically and should just stay single for now.
Beth. Daryl is an emotionally stunted man with a broken past. Michonne would be to threatening and Carol has too much baggage. Beth will bring out the best in him.
I don't care if Carol lives or dies. I don't dislike or like Carol because she absolutely bores me to death. I just don't tune in when she's on my screen. Plus, I don't care about Beth either because she's too optimistic for my taste. Out of the three chicks, I love Michonne the most but I don't ship any of these ladies with Daryl :) I like Daryl single..
I don't really care but Beth is hideous and can't act or sing so let's hope that one doesn't happen. She looks like a rat!
Who cares?! He's a fictional character on tv. Get a life.
Carol hands down I think beth is far too young for daryl but that's just me
Yes of course you're not going to like every character and no you haven't come in and just commented on wanting Carol dead. But do you have a reason to want Carol dead? Or has it to do with Daryl and Beth?
Daryl and Beth? If that happens, just rename the show The Walking Mid-Life Crisis and be done with it.
I consider myself a fan of the show, but I watch for certain characters. The characters are what keep me watching, not just the idea of a zombie show. I watch for Rick, Carl, Glenn, Michonne, Maggie, Beth, Sasha and Tyrese. I don't see how I am not a fan of the show because I watch for certain characters that interest me. There are characters I like and some I don't and I will admit that I would rather see Carol be the death over any of the people mentioned above. I think anyone would be lying if they didn't have characters they liked more than others and have certain characters that kept them watching. I can't imagine tuning into a show every week if you didn't watch for some character or characters. People have been wishing death on Beth ever since the Still episode, so I don't see why it's an issue that I made that comment. It's not like I popped in here and only made that one comment about Carol's death, I have discussed many things on this topic. I fail to see why Carol needs to survive this season and if that makes me not a true fan to you, then so be it. Nothing I can do about that.
And I'm sure you'll be extremely surprised when Carol doesn't die this season and to be honest, if you were a fan of the show and not just characters then you'd realise why Carol won't be killed off anytime soon. And as for Daryl not going out looking for Carol and then running after Beth. Do you listen to the dialogue in each episode? Reedus interviews? Your using all his statements on Beth and Daryl as the holy grail. Remember the interview when he said the worst thing that Beth could say to Daryl was 'you'll be the last one standing' because Daryl DOESN'T want to be on his own. He can't be on his own. And Beth, to him was the only one left to him that was alive. Of course he's going to want to hold onto that. Guys seriously, take off your rose tinted glasses and really think about it. There's is nothing wrong with having an intellectual conversation. Don't be spiteful for wishing character deaths because you don't have anything worthy to say.
Ravita, i love you. I agree with you.
Beth's story will be wrapped up with Gareth. If not, they can save her for Carl. If she doesn't die before then.
After all of the unfair hate that Beth and especially Emily Kinney has received, I'm kind of hoping the new role for Carol is being season 4's big death. Sorry, but not.
When Rick told Daryl that he banished Carol, he got mad but he didn't went looking for her not even mention going out after her, instead he said "let's go see what Tyresse says". When Beth was kidnapped he ran for hours after that car, and falls down dead from exhaustion, and Norman said "he's not giving up".
The writers will do whatever they feel fits best with Daryl's character. They are the ones that have been cultivating him for four years. They know him a heck of a lot better than we do. The same goes for Carol. They will make the right decision in regards to who he pairs up with, if anyone at all. I personally believe that if Caryl was going to happen then it would've already. Beth is a fresh face and a new arc for Daryl's character. I think watching their relationship progress IN ANY FORM is very interesting and captivating to watch. The Caryl arc has been done, I feel as if they are looking for Carol to step up and fit into a new role now.
How do you know that it will change his view on Carol? I mean yes there wasn't much time before the attack on the prison but from the conversation he and Rick had, "That's her, but that ain't her" Daryl was accepting of Rick's statement "She said she did it for us" That's her. Then Rick tells him "She wasn't sorry" which Daryl replied "But that ain't her" which to me means yes, he believes Carol would do something like that to protect the group but there is no way in hell, she wasn't sorry. And he was right, come The Grove, we all saw how sorry she was for taking it into her own hands.. He knew she'd be sorry. So really, I don't think he'll hold it against her at all. In fact I think he'll see the positive in her growth. And that's got nothing to do with romance. They understand each other.
Um, what did you guys said about Beth not having fans? Um, yeah, that's what I thought.
I'm just glad that someone started a more accurate poll and the results are better than I expected and it seems that more people support Bethyl than I thought. I don't agree that Carol is a cold killer, we all can see that she was upset for what she had to do. I just don't think she is or ever was a romantic option for Daryl, but I will say that Carol killing Karen and David will change the way that Daryl views Carol. He didn't think she would do something like that, but she did.
All of these ships are great in their own way. Stop fighting ppl. Being nasty to each other is not worth it.
Carol's a hardened killer? Are you serious? Obviously some people literally only watch the episodes that have Daryl in them. Because if you did watch The Grove you'd have witnessed Carol break her heart and go through every emotion possible in that episode. The episode was a huge success. Unlike Still, which tanked. And as far as Melissa's acting ablitity goes, I think the reviews and the commendations that followed from fellow actors speak for themselves. Maybe the Carol haters disguised as Deth shippers should go watch something more age appropriate
Yet it wasn't scanned and posted on twitter or tumblr? Yeah ok.
Norman said in the US Magazine interview, that WHEN Daryl and Carol happens, it's going to be great. BOOM
They have also said that there was no Caryl at one point or another, so I don't think they will say yes or no one way or another because it keeps fans coming back. I think the "slow grow" nonsense is just to keep Caryl fans happy. I mean, slow grow after 4 seasons?? After that long it starts sounding like an excuse of why they aren't together. Again, I don't see this four seasons of build up. Their interactions were surrounded only on the Sophia situation and now that that is over, Daryl hardly talks or interacts with Carol. He didn't even mention her at all and if she is his closest friend, then that would have been the first name out of his mouth, not Rick. I think the Caryl close friendship/romance whatever is made up in minds and was developed OFF SCREEN by some. Daryl's best friend and closest relationship is with Rick, not Carol. As for romance, I still feel that Daryl has shown more affection towards Beth in two episodes then he has with Carol in 4 seasons unless someone can tell me what Daryl has done that is romantic towards Carol?
"Beth was just there to annoy him" oh my god, I'm laughing so hard right now. Some of you guys are so blind :').
Actually, Norman fought against any type of romantic relationship for Daryl and Carol and Norman's playbook for Daryl is all that Beth and Daryl have. Kirkman, Norman and Emily all have said there is potential for their relationship to go romantic. When is the last time Norman came out and said something like that about Carol and Daryl? Never.
Daryl and Carol have been going exactly how Norman wants it to. Slow grow, awkward, no game. He was against a quick relationship, that's why he was hesitant in the first couple of seasons. Now he has had 4 seasons to build up a very close friendship with Carol. Time to take it to the next level. Beth was just there to annoy him and make him to play teenage games while he thought everyone was dead. Gimpe, Reedus and Kirkman have already said there is no Bethyl romance. Melissa also said she was glad Beth was there for Daryl for those few days, since Carol couldn't be :)
Really? It doesn't mean anything that he let his guard down with only Beth?? How exactly are Daryl and Carol more compatible? I always ask Carylers what DARYL has done that was romantic towards Carol, but never get an answer. Carol was always the one initiating the comments and contact, it was never Daryl. Beth and Daryl definitely have a connection beyond what Daryl and Carol had and at least it goes both ways. What Daryl and Carol have is clearly unrequited.
You might want to talk to Norman who seems to think Beth and Daryl's relationship is on a more intimate level.
Just because Daryl shared stuff with Beth doesnt mean amything. Beth and Daryl's relationship is more of a brother/sister relationship. Thats how my youngest big brother and I are. Daryl and Carol have a different relationship. They are more compatable together. Beth and Daryl dont. Daryl gave Beth a piggy back ride because she was injured and she couldnt continue. And Daryl tought Beth how to track and how to use a crossbow because honestly she didn't know how to survive. She needs to learn how to survive.
Good point Jane, Norman isn't like Andrew Lincoln, he doesn't have a middle aged wife...he's obviously interested in dating younger, much younger.
Norman is dating a 20 year old so I don't think he would mind a 'teen romance' actually...
The last thing Daryl/Norman would want is a teen romance. Can you just imagine Daryl and Beth sitting around reading Twilight together ... No thanks!
Doesn't seem like the numbers are all that different from the other poll so far.
Daryl and Carol don't have as much chemistry as Beth and Daryl... They're close, and the share lots of thing in common, but chemistry as a couple: no. Now, as Ravita said, Daryl has done things with Beth that he NEVER did with Carol: Piggyback rides, carrrying her bridal style when it was NOT even necessary, teaching her how to track, letting her use his crossbow (he never let anyone touch it), crying in front of her, being the one who initiates physicall contact. And most important: WILLING TO SETTLE DOWN WITH BETH IN THAT HOUSE. Now, in the last episode anyone with a piece of brain can tell that Daryl was thinking about Beth: 1. When Len mentiones that he had lost himself for 'a piece of tail' and we all know what almost happened. 2. When he grabs the blanket to cover Len, because that's something Beth would do. If you just want to be blind about it FINE, but don't just say "Oh, he shared so much more stuff with Carol" or "There's no chemistry with Beth" because you're the one looking stupid.
Norman Reedus has said NUMEROUS times in interviews that he has fought against having Daryl in a relationship with Carol, they just have a special platonic bond. Now I don't really ship him with anyone...i'm just saying, it's obviously not going to happen so save yourselves the heartache.
You must have not been paying attention for 3 seasons if you missed Daryl and Carols special relationship developing. And whoever concoted the idea of even hinting at "Bethyl" must have thought we were stupid....We don't buy it for a minute....Caryl On...
Why are we discussing this? CAROL should be with Daryl.
Beth, because Carol is a hardened killer with demons of her own and Daryl deserves a little light and happiness in his life.
Carol is the only choice ... Let's be honest 3 season of facts for 3 episodes with nosense .... even michonne have more sense than Beth ...
Over 3 seasons in the making...Carol!! And I am not a sexless middle aged housewife. I'm a 40 something professional that can't get enough of my husband
Carol, as if there was any other rational choice.
For accuracy instead of spam...
