Daryls character development is amazing, from when he was just some random angry dude in season 1 and 2 to the most outstanding characters in twd history who could never die.
Because shane was well written. A fleshed out character. Same with the governor. Everyone else is dull and 2 dimensional...since the end of season 3...
Shane represented where Rick and the rest of the group after the farm would turn out after the season 2 finale. After Shane’s death Rick slowly became like him & the turning point was Lori’s death.
@@whoswho8241 Negan plays too major role :P and i wouldn't say that... What happened in last few episodes was exactly "putting him low" xD he is not emperor anymore he literally took season 4-6 Rick role

Loved Abraham and was more upset to see him go than Glenn in a way. We all were sort of prepared for Glenn's death in a way but I felt like Abraham still had some stuff he needed to do on the show and hadn't been fully utilized. I think he deserved to go out in the All Out War storyline doing something heroic that would lead them to victory, not executed the way he was.
I agree, and not to sound cynical, but I think his death had a lot to do with that. A lot of people cite that moment specifically to why they stopped watching so that helped maintain his popularity after he got off the show imo
@@_EmperorPenguin I would have also stopped but I really loved the characters. Even tho season 7 and 8 were kinda trash I'm glad I didn't stop after he died because the last two seasons were great
The fact that Shane stayed in the top 5 until Season 6 is insane considering he only appeared in the first 2 seasons! Shows you how much of an impact he had on the fan base and how good of an actor Jon Bernthal is!
@TheAnax 11 lizzy was more deadlyer because she murdered her sister to try and make a point. Shane was crazy because he love lory and wanted Rick out of the picture. So I would say they are equal in ways but you kinda have to feel bad for lizzy because she was only a kid and she only went killer because of what the world had done to her young mind and she just couldn't understand
She is really hot and honestly, its enough for MANY people. In a world where overwatch is top 10 in porn, googling rosita cus she's hot is actually way too normal.
The fact that they were gonna kill Daryl off in the first season and he has survived to be one of the last men standing is simply astonishing. He outplayed the creators themselves.
glenn started being quite bland for me later. I liked his character till season 3/4. After Maggie got SA, he started being so boring and lost everything
@Xanth Miller yeah he never lived to see his son grow up. That’s why rating of the show went downhill because they killed of too many loved characters.
@Xanth Miller Glenn is my 2nd favorite character after Rick and the only way for him to survive imo would be if they would kill Maggie instead (which would be brutal due to her being pregnant and unlikely because Negan would pick the toughest guys to die, not a pregnant woman), he got his comic death as well and it's the best episode they've ever made in TWD. They had to hit hard on S7 E1. I would have loved to have Glenn till the end but him and Maggie both alive would be too good to be true.
Literally he starts off by closing a church doors and letting people died to open the doors to a community who was about to die by a herd. Not my favorite character but it's a literaly fact that he has the best character growth naturally.

Glenn being dead for 4 seasons and still in the top 5 is pretty impressive when you consider the absolute quality cast of characters in the show still.
That's all thanks to syndication and Blu-ray sales. People who haven't watched TWD are now catching up. Plus Steven Yuen is nominated for an Oscar that means his talent & stock should be way higher than everybody in the show now. Lol!
@@iheartjazminandsalvia6145 I think it's because Sasha is forgettable compared to Andrea. I mean yeah Andrea did some stupid stuff but that's what memorable characters do. Sasha was just boring and a 2 dimensional character that everyone just forgot about.
yes! that's the exact group for me. Rick, Daryl, Glenn, Maggie, Michonne, Carol and Carl. Watching it over the other characters come and go, but those seven are what I held on for, and what I went back for. (Though Hershel was awesome and I thought Dwight was super underrated)
@@jade3090 I never said he was weak, I'm saying he is just not that tough, I can't take him seriously, he is so emotional, idk how he has survived so long
Carol... one of the best developed "strong WAMYN" characters out there. She grew.. she adapted.. she changed.. and she BECAME a total badass. Honestly.. Carol is my go-to whenever people talk about strong female characters done correctly.
I actually thought that was pretty great because in the comics she was the one who went insane and killed herself after multiple attempts early on. I was pleasantly surprised when she didnt die.
I’m very happy Maggie consistently stayed in the top 3. She is definitely my favorite character and her and Negan’s whole relationship is without a doubt the most interesting part of the show to me. The only spin off I’m actually excited for is theirs.
I found Maggie to be so annoying after Glenn died she just always so bitter and upset non-stop (understandable why but not fun to watch for many seasons). When they started building on Maggie and negans relationship in season 10, I really started to like Maggie a lot more. Now with the spin-off though they seemed to have gone back on that character development between Maggie and negan in season 10 which is a bit annoying. But then seeing Maggie just trying to be a good parent and really trying was nice to see as you don’t see her being a parent as much in twd. Anyway it just baffles me Maggie stayed so consistently at the top for so long considering her character changes
@@chlbo9763I mean they gotta keep it realistic to keep the viewers immersed in the show and feel like they're really watching an alternate universe where a zombie apocalypse actually does happen. So ofc they gotta keep Maggie's sadness and bitterness feeling authentic cuz it's what would really happen when someone goes thru what she did
@@laurenschultz3309 Rick is a prick. In the beginning it was a bit different but he started to become more and more of a prick. For me, when he made it a “Ricktatorship” is when he really started to be an asshole.
The reason why he is not at the top is because he is dead yes he was one of the best characters at the time but when people figure out that he wanted to get of the show broke everyone. And plus Maggie came back as a bad ass everyone was happy to know that she was pregnant and ready to make another Glenn. Plus Daryl is the one keeping everyone from doing dumb stuff. And negan might have kill her but he was such a bad ass believe it or not
@@DaniQueeen none of it makes sense cause he might be dead but even before he was dead he still wasn't in a higher rating in this video and that is weird cause Daryl and Glenn are two of the only characters most people watched the series for. Maggie came as a badass yeah but the hype for her wasn't as big as Glenn's neither was Negan's hype compared to Glenn's or Daryl's hype. I see this list very flawed in many aspects.
I miss her so much too! As stupid as her death seems, I was thinking about how if she survived the hospital that it might make Daryl weak. Like if they became as close as he and carol or even closer. Idk how he would have handled the whole being a prisoner at the sanctuary arc. I still wish she was around for us to find out tho lol
Yeah they tend to start to give a character and arc and slowly after kill them. Like with Carol it was so weird, he’s in it so much and then within season 7-8 he’s just here and there with such little screen time. Then all of a sudden he’s speaking his voice and trying to be the person that brings everyone together and bam, that’s the end of his arc.
@@edsheeran562 because he had no emotional connection to him so killing him was just like killing some random stranger. He didn’t know anything about him except for the fact that he and his friends killed more than 60 of his men and women. If you ask me, he went easy on them by only killing 2. Plus, the “here’s Negan” episode made me understand and like him more 🤷♀️
Carol deserves love too! I was surprised she didn’t get more hype for when she blew up terminus in season 4 and single handedly slaughtered all the wolves in Alexandria. Also I knew a lot of people liked Daryl but omg I had no idea it was that many…
@@wholesome_masochist4113 Your living in an apocalypse, its self defense and plus, never take a chance. Carol is my ultimate fav dont talk shit bout her
@@ragooable Well too bad, not everyone needs to like who you do. And no, half the bullshit carol causes in later seasons is her actively instigating stuff and being a serial killer for no reason. I personally think that she should've died back at the prison because she hasn't had an arc past season 4 I think, or ever since she was with Tyrese with those screwed in the head little girls.
I stopped watching the walking dead after rick left, I tried to get back into it but it doesn't do it for me anymore lol, Daryl my second favorite character, I just always seen him as the second character though. (It was shane but he's gone)
Half of the characters are dead. A quarter part of them are disappeared. We don't give a darn about the rest. Then there's Daryl. Man, don't you dare to die or this show will be even more done.
Sorry, Negan IS carrying the show. People started to get tired of Daryl after all the crap he was doing before Rick's disappearance. Carol only did crap this last season. Judith still hadn't time to grow in the viewers perspective. Negan was great during all this season. The man deserves the credit. I love Daryl but I wouldn't say people would riot if he died now since there's a strong character like Negan keeping the show going on.
I like Maggie. Her acting is top notch. Norman earned the top spot. He plays Daryl so good and hes relatable to alot of people. Grew up with abuse, racism , drugs, alcohol...the outbreak was a blessing for Daryl because it brought him a FAMILY, a family he might've never found if the zombie outbreak didn't happen.
@@L10N. I don't understand why people like negan as much as they do. He's funny and charismatic but that's about it. He's a man who takes pleasure in killing, Creeps on women and gets his sick kicks from terrifying people. Although it is kinda hard to hate on him because he adds life to the show but he's not a good person no matter what his fan girls say.
@@TH-od3cu its because he isn't completely evil and doesn't seek revenge much. Rick's group before hand killed tons of Negans group. and In revenge Negan only killed 2 people he could have taken the entire group out but didn't
Ikr but i've never liked him he wasn't worthy of love, he let down all the people who trusted him and all who wanted to trust him too... He was crazy, selfish, blindly exploitative. So much so that he preferred to sacrifice all the people around him and all that he had accomplished in Woodbury, and everything he was, just to impose his authority on Rick too.. He was a very disappointing character. I don't understand why anyone would love this type of mad person just because he saved a child and then killed her next.
Hey anyone please tell me is it Rick is alive till on to the last season .iam the new one to watch this series now iam travel on the season 5 ..please any one tell me
Maggie being so popular is surprising, as is Shane. The Governor being so popular for so long is also kinda crazy. I expected Merle to be more popular, especially after his face-turn. I also think Rosita and her ass should be two characters - which might change that top three dynamic.
Lol yea rosita is up there cause she's fine as hell lol. Maggie being ahead of Rick makes no sense and I never really heard much talk about Maggie in comparison to Rick.
Its crazy how good a job Norman did with Daryl, dude was only in like 3eps s1 and was planned on getting killed during season 2 but was so popular they kept him around

See, Norman Reedus is such a good actor (so Daryl is such a good charakter) that he doesn’t needa be in any damn comic to be King 🤷🏼♂️😂😂
He is not in the comic but he is in the series till today that's why he is in Top
He also uses a crossbow and is the most badass character. Crossbow is a rarely seen weapon especially in a zombie apocalypse.
That’s what the makes the show better than the comics
This is literally documented proof of why Daryl is never leaving the show.
Yup its all depending on your ratings the more people like you than your chance of leaving the show will be less
Idk the last season is coming up🤷🏽♂️
That means the writers are more concerned about who's popular and not telling a story no matter who dies. Ever heard of plot armor..?

That's all thanks to syndication and Blu-ray sales. People who haven't watched TWD are now catching up. Plus Steven Yuen is nominated for an Oscar that means his talent & stock should be way higher than everybody in the show now. Lol!
Don’t get me wrong Maggie is a great character, but how is she more popular than Rick, Negan or Glenn?
Because rick is no longer in it where as she has returned. And Glenn has been dead for three years and Negan is just a badly written character.
@@MR.ICE. oh yeah I forgot to think about that.
Because wierd dudes on internet are probably looking for 18+ stuff bout her,and cuz they dont know her(the actor) name...they search for her character
She's been through the most. Darkest character.

yes! that's the exact group for me. Rick, Daryl, Glenn, Maggie, Michonne, Carol and Carl. Watching it over the other characters come and go, but those seven are what I held on for, and what I went back for. (Though Hershel was awesome and I thought Dwight was super underrated)

Show wasted his talent, all he does is growl at people after season 8
@@Chadius_Thundercock to be fair the show started falling off in general at season 7
Carol... one of the best developed "strong WAMYN" characters out there. She grew.. she adapted.. she changed.. and she BECAME a total badass. Honestly.. Carol is my go-to whenever people talk about strong female characters done correctly.
I actually thought that was pretty great because in the comics she was the one who went insane and killed herself after multiple attempts early on. I was pleasantly surprised when she didnt die.
@Ein Zuschauer lmao true she became an asshole but she also became way stronger and somewhat smarter than before
Well she had a good arc at first. Then all of a sudden in season seven she is a wanna be goody two shoes? That pissed me off
CLEMENTINE!!!!!
Developed in a non sense way
You know you've done a good job when a character you've specifically made just for the show, who is not even in the comics, gets the most votes.
they aren't votes, it's how many times they are searched for on google
@@stevenc400 and they're cumulative searches, meaning the number of hours of screen time since E1S1 really helped
*Basically:*
_Daryl:_ I'm going to show this little muppets who is in charge here.
I’m very happy Maggie consistently stayed in the top 3. She is definitely my favorite character and her and Negan’s whole relationship is without a doubt the most interesting part of the show to me. The only spin off I’m actually excited for is theirs.
I found Maggie to be so annoying after Glenn died she just always so bitter and upset non-stop (understandable why but not fun to watch for many seasons). When they started building on Maggie and negans relationship in season 10, I really started to like Maggie a lot more. Now with the spin-off though they seemed to have gone back on that character development between Maggie and negan in season 10 which is a bit annoying. But then seeing Maggie just trying to be a good parent and really trying was nice to see as you don’t see her being a parent as much in twd. Anyway it just baffles me Maggie stayed so consistently at the top for so long considering her character changes
@@chlbo9763I mean they gotta keep it realistic to keep the viewers immersed in the show and feel like they're really watching an alternate universe where a zombie apocalypse actually does happen. So ofc they gotta keep Maggie's sadness and bitterness feeling authentic cuz it's what would really happen when someone goes thru what she did
How isn’t Rick not at the top, he’s the only reason why I started watching the series
i don't like rick at all
@@abdullaharslan5211 why
Rick was good at plans, but Daryl was good at lone fight. He survived, he was badass.
Lots of people don’t like or absolutely can’t stand Rick. He’s been a total prick for a lot of the show.
@@laurenschultz3309 Rick is a prick. In the beginning it was a bit different but he started to become more and more of a prick. For me, when he made it a “Ricktatorship” is when he really started to be an asshole.
Shane: I’m the most popular in this HAHA.
Daryl: let us see about that.
Shane was more popular while he was alive . Of course Daryl will over take him when he’s dead lol
@@About36Greekss ofcourse he got more of the screen time and was like one of the first antagonists to rick.
Shane was there even after his death. The best in twd
Shane is better than Daryl ngl but the show is better now!
LOL!!! 😂
Shane being in top 10 even tough he was absent for 8 seasons shows how cool the character was
same with the governor
yep, I was sort of hoping they wouldn't make him an antagonist so early on
@@billypark8032 governor was only absent for 6 seasons and i think shane was better
@@agbrenv yeah but its his short time on the show that makes him cool, if he lasted longer he would have become less interesting
Dude the only good thing about shane was that the actor that played him had great acting abilities(forgot his name)
Carol is insanely underrated. The best character in series ever along with Daryl and Maggie
Shane the most popular character in TWD
Daryl: Hold my homemade Whisky
Moonshine*
Glenn.......why is he so underrated,he deserves much higher rank than this
Because he died, If he didn't die he would be ahead of Negan and Rick most likely
@@kh28garmr29 Glenn is in top 5
Bakeway: GlENn iS sO UndERrAtEd
WHAT ABOUT CARL
@@lkapecpospolity873 Carl wasn't bad but He should've stayed until the end, He would've killed Negan instead of whoever does end up doing the deed
@@kh28garmr29 Carl died a little beacuse he just wanted to help someone and this is sad
Am I the only one surprised Glenn was so far below? I honestly thought he was gonna be on the top three easily but didn't even get close wth?
I never read the comics so I was really REALLY upset that he got killed. Him, Rick and Daryl were my Top 3 characters.
Same for Carol😳
I agree and honestly I was surprised that The Governor stayed to high for so long his character wasn’t even that interesting to be that high up
The reason why he is not at the top is because he is dead yes he was one of the best characters at the time but when people figure out that he wanted to get of the show broke everyone. And plus Maggie came back as a bad ass everyone was happy to know that she was pregnant and ready to make another Glenn. Plus Daryl is the one keeping everyone from doing dumb stuff. And negan might have kill her but he was such a bad ass believe it or not
@@DaniQueeen none of it makes sense cause he might be dead but even before he was dead he still wasn't in a higher rating in this video and that is weird cause Daryl and Glenn are two of the only characters most people watched the series for. Maggie came as a badass yeah but the hype for her wasn't as big as Glenn's neither was Negan's hype compared to Glenn's or Daryl's hype. I see this list very flawed in many aspects.
I'm surprised Glenn isn't in the top 3's, his character is very well played throughout the series.
He's probably high up during s1 and s2. I'm shocked and happy at the same time that he's top 5 considering that he's been gone for 3 seasons.
how was the Governor that popular? i hated him like no one else
Same
He was annoying af
Because it's a good bad guy
He was very well written
oh god thannnks SAME
How is Carol behind Rosita? I’m calling pretty privilege on Rosita. Carol literally had one of the best character arcs I’ve ever seen.
Ikr? But rosita is better looking so, that's why she's probably higher... Although it doesn't make any sense.
Some people just actually like her character, it's not too hard to believe that lmao

God I miss Beth so much, I loved that there was literally no way of the comics spoiling her character it gave a lot of freedom to her development
Her death was so unnecessary and stupid that I just quit after lmao
I miss her so much too! As stupid as her death seems, I was thinking about how if she survived the hospital that it might make Daryl weak. Like if they became as close as he and carol or even closer. Idk how he would have handled the whole being a prisoner at the sanctuary arc. I still wish she was around for us to find out tho lol
Yeah they tend to start to give a character and arc and slowly after kill them. Like with Carol it was so weird, he’s in it so much and then within season 7-8 he’s just here and there with such little screen time. Then all of a sudden he’s speaking his voice and trying to be the person that brings everyone together and bam, that’s the end of his arc.
True we missed her so badly
I appreciate how andrea was always at the bottom, and Negans sudden climb.
Merle was so underrated. They killed him off way to early in the show.

@@edsheeran562 because he had no emotional connection to him so killing him was just like killing some random stranger. He didn’t know anything about him except for the fact that he and his friends killed more than 60 of his men and women. If you ask me, he went easy on them by only killing 2.

@@ragooable Well too bad, not everyone needs to like who you do. And no, half the bullshit carol causes in later seasons is her actively instigating stuff and being a serial killer for no reason. I personally think that she should've died back at the prison because she hasn't had an arc past season 4 I think, or ever since she was with Tyrese with those screwed in the head little girls.
dude what the hell with the spoiler I accidentally read that😭
Daryl - 'Get on my level'
Glenn 'I'm dead and still more popular than 90% of the cast'

That is correct Mohamed
It surprises me that Hershel and Governor are still pretty high on the list
Half of the characters are dead.
A quarter part of them are disappeared.
We don't give a darn about the rest.
Then there's Daryl. Man, don't you dare to die or this show will be even more done.
Daryl? There was a time. Now Negan's carrying the whole show. And he's making a brilliant job at that.
Of Daryl dies the show goes down with it
Black swordsman Negan isn’t carrying . Daryl , Carol , Negan , Maggie , and Judith are the main characters keeping the show alive.
Sorry, Negan IS carrying the show. People started to get tired of Daryl after all the crap he was doing before Rick's disappearance. Carol only did crap this last season. Judith still hadn't time to grow in the viewers perspective.
Negan was great during all this season. The man deserves the credit. I love Daryl but I wouldn't say people would riot if he died now since there's a strong character like Negan keeping the show going on.
and negan
Let's be honest, Daryl and Negan are the best characters of the whole series.
And michonne

I like Maggie. Her acting is top notch. Norman earned the top spot. He plays Daryl so good and hes relatable to alot of people. Grew up with abuse, racism , drugs, alcohol...the outbreak was a blessing for Daryl because it brought him a FAMILY, a family he might've never found if the zombie outbreak didn't happen.

I admired his perfect city. He did a good job during apocalypse honestly
Ikr but i've never liked him he wasn't worthy of love, he let down all the people who trusted him and all who wanted to trust him too... He was crazy, selfish, blindly exploitative. So much so that he preferred to sacrifice all the people around him and all that he had accomplished in Woodbury, and everything he was, just to impose his authority on Rick too.. He was a very disappointing character. I don't understand why anyone would love this type of mad person just because he saved a child and then killed her next.
