THE WALKING DEAD: DARYL DIXON Renewed for Fourth and Final Season — GeekTyrant
While Daryl's next chapter will take him to Spain, this will mark the end of this particular spinoff story… at least for now.
The announcement came during the show's Hall H panel, where Norman Reedus (Daryl) and Melissa McBride (Carol) appeared alongside showrunner David Zabel, executive producer Scott M. Gimple, and longtime Walking Dead legend Greg Nicotero .
Season 3 is set to premiere September 7, and the final season begins production this month in Spain, even before fans have seen Season 3 hit screens.
Season 3 of Daryl Dixon picks up with Daryl and Carol continuing their long journey back home and to the people they love. But getting there won't be easy.
As AMC teases, their path 'takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse.'
The upcoming eight-episode final season will be filmed across some stunning Spanish locations including Madrid, Bilbao, Galicia, Andalucía, the Segovia region, and Toledo.
For Reedus, this announcement is bittersweet, but he promises that the finale will be something special:
'Daryl Dixon has been an incredible journey. I thank each and every fan who has joined us on this ride. It's been a privilege to build this story for these characters, and we have so much gratitude for how it's been embraced.
'Your love and support have made every moment worth it. This finale isn't just an ending; it's a celebration of what we've all shared together. Keep carrying that love forward – Daryl's journey is far from over.'
Now, Daryl might be closing this chapter, but his story in The Walking Dead Universe isn't done yet. Could another series or movie be in the works? Never say never.
Melissa McBride says she is thrilled to keep playing Carol alongside Daryl:
'It has been the thrill of a lifetime to shoot this part of Daryl and Carol's adventure together in Europe and I keep coming back for more of these two characters.
'There is still so much story left to tell and so much for the fans to look forward to. I'm going to revel in the moments as they come and am excited for the fans to see what we have been working on in these incredible locations.'
AMC's Dan McDermott talked about just how big an impact these characters have had on TV history:
'Across two extraordinary series spanning almost two decades – Norman and Melissa have given life to two of the most iconic characters in the history of television.
'Daryl and Carol have taken fans on an unforgettable and intensely human journey of challenge, survival, hope and friendship, and the response from fans, from the very first moments of The Walking Dead, has been remarkable.
'We can't wait to share the upcoming third season of Daryl this fall and to begin production on this fourth and final season in Spain. Whatever awaits these two beloved characters, we know The Walking Dead Universe is a timeless franchise that holds endless possibilities for story and characters new and old.'
This may be the end of Daryl Dixon as a series, but AMC isn't slowing down. Between Dead City , The Ones Who Live , and now this finale, the Walking Dead franchise continues to evolve. And with Reedus hinting that Daryl's journey is 'far from over,' fans have good reason to hope for more.

A Stylish Wedding With Mallorcan flavors, Bulgarian Rakia—and Dancing Under Moonlight
It didn't take long for the couple to realize that the planner's lack of expertise with the Balearic Island, and Es Racó's relative inexperience with weddings (theirs would only be the third thrown there), would make plotting the celebration an uphill battle. 'They are incredible, but they don't run a wedding-planning business. They run a hotel,' Des says. Struggling to nail down a date, what type of vendors they would need (like an AV team and furniture rentals), and the capabilities of different layouts or spots for each event, the couple finally flew from New York to Mallorca to hammer out the plan on site in April 2024. 'Our wedding planner turned out to be unprepared. She took me to a flower shop that was completely clueless, even when I had sent over inspiration multiple times,' says Des. 'So three days in, we fired the wedding planner.' With the wedding only six weeks away, they started over by asking Es Racó about the event planners that had worked on the two previous weddings held there, and ended up hiring Pauline de Saussure at Saussure Events, which was an instant game-changer. 'They knew the contact, the venue, the AV and logistics needs, and who could show up to the middle of the mountains with a wedding cake,' Des says. 'She brought to the table so many things that I didn't even know you had to do for the wedding.' The couple opted for candlelight over flowers. ILL GANDER Dramatic bunches of palm leaves added to the low-lit romantic setting. ILL GANDER Hold tight to your aesthetic vision While that first florist the couple saw had put forth dainty little blooms, Des and Shane had a bigger statement in mind for their florals—which is that there would barely be florals at all. The decor complemented the Mallorcan surroundings instead of competing with them, via warm wooden chairs, white candles in glass vessels, and spare explosions of palm leaves standing tall and architecturally, all handled by Enesencia Design. 'We chose to do a ton of candles to keep the light low. I think people look stunning when the light is at your eye level. It gives you that golden glow,' says Des. 'We had these very tall greens to add some height, since the tent was so tall.'

TikTok launches ‘TikTok Pro' in Europe with built-in charity program
In Brief TikTok is launching a new version of its app called 'TikTok Pro' in Germany, Portugal, and Spain. The app features TikTok's new 'Sunshine Programme,' which allows users to support charitable organizations. Users can earn 'virtual sunshine' by inviting others to join and by interacting with charity-related content, such as liking or reposting videos, following charity accounts, or searching for charitable causes. They can then use this virtual sunshine on a charity, after which TikTok will make a donation to the organization. It's worth noting that the content on TikTok Pro is the same as that on the regular TikTok app, as reported by Social Media Today. The difference between the new app and the standard app is that TikTok Pro doesn't have any live-streams, shopping features, or ads. TikTok says the idea behind the new app is 'to enable people in Europe to support charitable organizations while discovering engaging and entertaining TikTok content.'

Love Island boys on day out to village ahead of final
The 'boys' from Love Island escaped the villa to visit a small market village in Mallorca ahead of the final - laughing and joking having apparently put previous tensions behind them. A British tourist spotted them on an afternoon out in Sant Llorenc Des Cardassar on July 31, 2025. Islanders Harry Cooksley, Dejon Noel-Williams, Cach Mercer, Ty Isherwood, Jamie Rhodes and Conor Phillips were on the trip and seen strolling through the village, down side streets and past a cheese stall. Harry, Ty, Connor and Dejon kept it cool in the 27c heat in matching black sleeveless shirts. The series finale is expected to air on Monday August 4. Karen Johnston-Tooth, 43, was on a bus tour during a holiday with a friend when she spotted the camera crew.
