On his shell he holds the earth.
Wait a minute, I think that when we first saw her she may have been 17 but that was several years ago.. By now she must be in her twenties and to call him a pedophile if he likes her is really beyond the pale.. Yes there is a difference in their ages but I really don't think it's such a big deal..and for some reason Carol has always struck me as being in her 50's..we do want to have Daryl have kids someday right?Besides, Carol is fundamentally twisted, could see her giving birth to a kid and then offing it because it isn't up to speed with survival..
I agree. Anyway, in many states 17 is legal. And while that age difference is not my cup of tea, who are we to judge so harshly? Demi Moore and her boyfriend are over 25+ years apart.

Anyway, it's all hypothetical because who knows what they have in mind, but I just can't see it as being that bad. Just because they aren't our choices doesn't mean they are bad choices.

A thirty-something man with a teenager. Nothing healthy about that. Even if he likes her.

Who I really want to see return is Morgan. He is such a good actor and just enjoyed his crazy character. I know that Scott Gimple said that they are trying to bring him back. Let's hope that Lenny can fit into his schedule.
Agreed. He's a tremendous actor--CLEAR was the best episode of season 3 (IMHO), and he made me cry when he cried while trying to shoot his wife in season 1. I search him out in movies and Brit TV--he's one of my favorites :)

How old was she at the titheI actually don't think there's anything wrong when both are adults. It may seem icky to me, but not immoral.
I really don't know but that certainly looks like an age gap of 50 years or more.. And I just don't get it, daryl looks to be about in his 30's and she looks to be in her twenties (in the show)how that is "immoral"..actually I think she's 27 or 28 and he's mid forties..and again,we are talking about lots of time passing since they met..assuming that she is 20 or 21 at the time of the last show and he is in his 40's does that make him a bad guy if he does end up with her?Agreed it would be a stretch but not so way out there..besides think Flake has dibs on him,so probably moot point..;)

If Carol doesn't bust 'em out of the boxcar, I really hope it's Morgan. I mean, SOMEBODY'S gotta bust 'em out. There's a whole nother season to get through!

According to the showrunners, it's been about 18 mos since the first epi, so she's at most 18, if she was almost 17 when they found the farm. I don't think he's a bad guy, but it would be icky to me.

If she's twenties, nothing wrong with it. She seems younger. Not just looks, but she acts younger. To me, anyway. And a person in their thirties, with a person in their teens, TO ME is wrong. If she's in her twenties, totally different.

EDITED TO ADD: I am talking about the age of the character, not the age of the actress.

Will grant you that..I missed the episode where they gave her age,and always just figured she was in her mid twenties.. Looked it up and found she is 28, and will be 29 in August so maybe that's why the age thing wasn't bothering me at all..not a favorite character of mine anyhow, like they're discussing above I hope that Morgan comes back.. The anger and pain he brings to the show is great and as real as any character they have featured so far..

I'm probably silly sensitive to that, since I have girls who are 15 and 17. If a 45 (or even 35) year old man came sniffing around either one, I'd have to hand him his guts. ;)
