'Walking Dead' Character Daryl Dixon May Be Gay, Creator Hints
 

Could speculation about a main "Walking Dead" character being gay be true?

Fans of the popular AMC zombie show have long questioned the sexuality of one of the lead characters, Daryl Dixon. Now, creator Robert Kirkman is addressing the rumors after he was directly asked about Daryl's sexuality in the letter column to "The Walking Dead" #130.

He told ComicBook.com, ?All I can say is that it?s been discussed. We have very specific ideas about Daryl?s sexuality (or the seeming lack thereof), and if there?s ever a quiet period in the show where he?s not consistently distracted by crossbowing? we?ll tackle it in the show.?

Kirkman also reportedly stated that AMC "absolutely would" allow the show's creators to make Daryl gay.

This revelation comes in wake of a recent blog on HuffPost that questioned: why are there no gays on "The Walking Dead"?

Interesting... maybe a trick for marketing? New season is coming...

Why does he need a sexuality? It does nothing for the story. If the story is so slow that they need to cover his sexuality, then they need new writers.

Ok.......

to get gay viewers :2 cents:

Gay viewers won't watch unless there is a gay character?

I hope they leave Walking Dead alone. The gays have enough shows to push their agenda.... ffs.

no, it would be heterosexual

under the dome tried it. they wrote it out fast. :1orglaugh

thanks for another non-news thread.

why are you stalking me?

Well there isn't much happening in the show that does anything for the story! :)

I'm convinced that show is for children, it's just boring!

exactly ... it's so pointless to go down that avenue, especially if it's only to keep those fucking cunts at huffington post happy.

He should start banging the zombie babes

That would be an attention getter....

remember the episode where they had girl time in that cabin and got drunk?

Actually it could explain a lot about his character. One of the things I like about The Walking Dead is they take enough time to develop the characters to where you actually care about them, which is what makes it so brutal when one of them dies. I don't think they would write it just to pander to the gay community, I think it would be an interesting look into who he is and how far he came. I think a lot of people forget what a total prick he was in the first season, and how much he has developed as a person. It would make sense, growing up in an abusive, hillbilly, alpha male household and being secretly gay...

How could he be hanging out with hot and sweaty Beth for all that time and not hit that? At the end of each day, I'd set up a zombie trip wire perimeter around the campfire and get balls deep.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :thumbsup fuckin moonshine and snacks for about a week come up for air!

I thought true blood had us fully covered for pointless gay shit. I don't care if they suddenly say he's gay but they better not make him shirtless and with his tongue down a man's throat every episode.

I hate it when they do this shit.

If the character is gay then people should only find out by watching the show and have it come about naturally episode by episode.

There's a difference between watching a show and things coming together in an interesting way and yelling out to the world "Hey this guy might be gay watch the show to find out!"

This waiving the gay flag to turn on or off a bunch of viewers is tacky and takes away from the body of work, all of the other characters, writing etc. IMO.

+1

Wrong, it is all about gay zombies.

They don't eat brains they eat dick!

dick brain.

bye bye middle America ratings

Even non gays push that agenda nowadays. It is called being hipster liberal scum, it is a popular thing nowadays.
