Coleman and Brighton Sharbino as Tyreese and Lizzie in Season 4 Episode 14 of “The Walking Dead” entitled “The Grove.” It can leave and translate into something different.Chad L. Because when your pain is witnessed, it doesn’t stay stuck. “I think one of the things that is so important about emotional healing is to have a witness. I’ve lost many people in my life and I think I’ve overcome an extraordinarily large amount of trauma,” she says. Still, she was delighted to get the call to join the series, particularly for a character processing loss, just as many of us are nowadays. She religiously watched the first five seasons of the show until she got pregnant and found herself developing an aversion to violence on television. Lynn Collins calls herself a one-time rabid fan of The Walking Dead. And that quick ability to open up what drew Leah’s actress to the role in the first place. But what makes her an interesting case is just how adeptly she’s able to move past that trauma through only the presence of the soft-spoken Daryl Dixon. Family and group annihilation is pretty much par for the course on this show. That Leah lost everyone she cared about doesn’t make her unique on The Walking Dead.
And since that moment she has lived a life of total isolation, with only her dog named Dog and some photos under the floorboards for company. Unfortunately Leah lost everyone amid a horde of walkers. As the two bond, Leah reveals that she used to have a group of her own, which included a woman she came to think of as a sister and her son, Matthew, who became Leah’s son. Initially she gives Daryl the ol’ Walking Dead “hello” (a shotgun pointed at his face) but eventually the two begin to trust each other and engage in a relationship. While he doesn’t find Rick, he does find the extremely isolated Leah.
Instead he ventures off into the woods of the Mid-Atlantic in search of his lost “brother” Rick Grimes. The episode “Find Me” flashes back to five years earlier when Daryl Dixon was not yet ready to take up the leadership of his group. Leah is just the latest in a long line of characters who has lost…well, everything. The Walking Dead season 10 episode 18 introduces one such character in the form of Leah, played by television vet Lynn Collins ( True Blood, Bosch). Every now and then though, The Walking Dead will introduce a new character to remind us of just how deep the well of grief can go in this universe. The show’s first episode dealt with an apocalyptic event that wiped out the majority of the population and since then its characters have known the names of the dead better than the names of the living. Over on The Walking Dead, however, grappling with such concepts has been the norm all along.
