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.

He's only on the stupid show, so who cares.

I imagine it being sorta like that cage fighting scene at the end of Bruno.

That would be stupid. A lot of women watch that show because they have weird Daryl Dixon fantasies.

I stopped watching this show, so I guess that means he and Carol never got it on

I don't get the love for this show. The first season was alright, it's just boring now and the fans are intolerable.

Doesn't seem like a very organic direction for that character. More like something they are considering for publicity.

Walking Dead is popular enough without stirring controversy by making the most macho character gay.

The day they have Daryl come onto another male characher and push that shite in a show where there's no need is the day I'll stop watching. Given what we know of his background with Merle it makes no since to push that now.

This. There's no reason to go that direction other than a trendy statement

The show already has Carl. Why do they need to add another gay character?

Eh...I mean, it would explain a whole bunch of things about the character. He was clearly the beta to Merle's alpha, despite Carol basically licking him he kept her at arms length...same with Stumpy's daughter last season.

If he's straight, he's clearly the pickiest mother fricker in the zombie apocalypse because he's had ample opportunities to get Little Darryl some action and has declined.
