Transatlantic flights aren't easy to come by in The Walking Dead, and Daryl has shown precious little interest in sightseeing. That'd certainly explain why (and how) Daryl travels to Europe in the first place. What could be so vital about Europe that The Walking Dead would rather lose Carol than film closer to home?
The European setting must, therefore, be deeply integral to the narrative - not just a change of scenery, or because producers fancied a vacation. Since 2010, The Walking Dead has predominantly filmed in Georgia (sometimes just the same square mile of woodland it feels like.), so upping sticks to Europe wouldn't have been a decision taken lightly even before Melissa McBride's shock exit. That AMC would rather lose one half of the spinoff's main character pairing than relocate Daryl & Carol's Walking Dead shoot to the US speaks volumes. Related: Why Andrew Lincoln Left The Walking Dead During Season 9 According to AMC's announcement, the Walking Dead spinoff is scheduled to film in Europe, and the logistical challenges involved prompted the Atlanta-based McBride to quit. As confirmed in April 2022, Melissa McBride has departed the project, turning the "Daryl & Carol spinoff" into a "Daryl spinoff," but the official reason behind her departure is curious.
The Walking Dead's Daryl & Carol spinoff is now morphing into something else entirely.
