Tyreese: Baby Carrier, Reluctant Warrior - The Walking Dead Franchise Shows

Tyreese is another character who is significantly impacted by Daryl's role on the show. 

I feel like they brought Tyreese in because they had some very strong (and I'd say warranted) criticisms for their treatment of black men, and this was also a way to appeal to comics fans. 

Unfortunately they don't seem to know what to do with him, and the whole Karen thing was huge tell-not-show. I do think that having him with the kids and then his role in The Grove, especially his forgiving Carol, was a big improvement, and it felt like they were writing to the strengths of the actor.

My favorite Tyreese scene overall is the scene where he was flirting with Karen before she went to bed, singing, etc. I thought that was sweet - something you rarely get on this show.

I also greatly enjoy his relationship with Sasha.

I hope we get more of his relationship with Carol. They're both outsiders, in many ways, and I think he should become one of her main links in the group. I don't mean romantically, necessarily, but at least a friendship.
