Daryl shared how since the early days, the original show started out feeling like an independent movie, that became so popular, the industry took over, and it became an entity unto itself. Norman is thrilled to be in this series, it feels like the old days, a more intimate story with a far less crazy than what the original show had morphed into. This show reminds him of the early days of The Walking Dead.
Norman talked about the early days when al lot of the actors were friends and would visit each other in their trailers, and how that drifted away as various characters were killed off. He enjoyed the reminiscing as he shared that all of his friends were gone! He also spoke about his characters maturation from the beginning, his relationship with his brother Merle, and how he became a better man once Merle was dead, becoming the man, he was intended to be, which may not have been the original thought for his character, but one that has surely worked well in these various series.
