I really appreciate the fair treatment the makers give to redneck Daryl.

That's only because they can live out their most feverish leftwing fantasies with Merle - making him cartoonishly racist and bloodthirsty. If Merle didn't exist, they'd have to make Daryl the bitter clinger.

Didn’t Darryl also become friends with the black character they just killed off?
