Since fans have some idea of their history going in, parsing the timeline matters a bit more here.
So lets parse it!
Then, the second episode catches up with Michonne six years after the bridge and goes from there.
Almost immediately after he got whisked away, the narrative skipped to six years later.
Wait, didnt you just saysix yearsafter the bridge??Exactly.
It runs approximately parallel to the end of the original series.
Didnt Danai Gurira also depart the series?
When did that happen?That she did!
Michonne left in season ten, episode 13,What We Become, to search for her missing husband.
InThe Ones Who Live, we catch up with Michonnes story line when shes looking for Rick.
If you, like me, love to consult a fan wiki, my deepest condolences.
But were going to go with what the spinoff says from now on, so six years it is!
Its unlikely that the new series is going to cross over with previous seasons of the old series.
So, all in all, its been about 13 years.
Okay, so how doesDaryl Dixonfactor into this?Yes, lets talk about those other post-TWDshows.
That tidbit complicates the stakes for Daryl and his ongoing spinoff series.
In France, he insists that he has people back home who need him.
On one hand, if Judith and RJ are back with their parents, they dontneedhim to return ASAP.
On the other hand, Im sure Daryl would very much like to see his friends!
It also sets the spinoff during or maybe evenafterthe events ofThe Ones Who Live.
Maybe they assumed it didnt matter, because audiences would figure it out.
I suppose, by writing this out, I am proof of that.
Stuff like that feels less important in an apocalyptic landscape that only sporadically has electricity.
Who needs time when you barely have clocks, you know?
The point is: you might definitely watch these shows without studying timeline flashcards.
I love them dearly, but theyre not that deep.
Do you want to see Rick and Michonne kiss or not?
Worry about whether AMC is planning some major crossover event that looks suspiciously likeThe Walking Deadseason 13 later.
