Career
McBride began acting in 1991, appearing in numerous television commercials for companies like Rooms To Go; she also served as a Ford spokeswoman. In a 1993 episode of ABC legal drama series Matlock, she made her series television debut and later appeared in several other television drama series, including In the Heat of the Night; Profiler; Walker, Texas Ranger; and Dawson's Creek. Nina played Nina, a film buff who charms Dawson after his breakup with Jen, in the Season 1 episode "Road Trip" (1998), and in 2003, she returned to the series finale as a different actor.
McBride appeared in many made-for-television films, including Her Deadly Rival (1995) opposite Annie Potts and Harry Hamlin, Close to Danger (1997), Any Place But Home (1999), and Pirates of Silicon Valley (1999). She appeared on CBS miniseries A Season in Purgatory, based on Dominick Dunne's eponymous 1993 book. She worked as a film and commercial casting director in Atlanta, Georgia, from 2000 to 2010, and appeared in many short films. In the ensemble-cast science-fiction horror film The Mist, director Frank Darabont starred McBride as the "woman with the children at home." McBride was in contention for a larger role in the film but did not want to miss a significant amount of time away from her job as a casting director. She appeared in the Lifetime television series Living Proof the following year.
In 1996, McBride appeared alongside Martin Sheen and Ramon Estevez in a music video for country music company Diamond Rio's single It's All In Your Head.
Carol Peletier was cast in the AMC television drama series The Walking Dead, her first role to date. Peletier begins as a mid-forties wife and caring mother to a teenage Sophia, struggling to survive in a violent post-apocalyptic world populated with flesh-eating zombies and the few remaining humans, some of whom are diabolical and even more deadly than zombies themselves. McBride did not apply for the position, which she believed was temporary. She appeared on Season 1 as a regular cast member and was promoted to series regular for Season 2. McBride's name appeared in the opening credits sequence beginning with the first episode of Season 4. Carol was supposed to have been killed off in the episode "Killer Within," but the producers later had a change of plans.
McBride's character develops from being a weak and dependent to a vivacious warrior. Between the two media, the character of her character is compared. Carol is much younger and has a naive demeanor as a result of her comic book. She becomes more and more prone to being self-destructive during her time in the comics. In this regard, the television show differs, as she is depicted as a stern, pragmatic, and compassionate individual who has been slowly building inner strength. Scott M. Gimple and Robert Kirkman, the series's creators, said in 2014 that "Carol is her own unique character; it would be a disservice to Melissa McBride to say she's changed into the Carol from the comics. The Carol in the TV show is a wholly original creation that we will continue to investigate on the show to great effect. Everybody in the writers' room adores the character, and we're thrilled with what Melissa has contributed to the table. She has certainly developed into a person that is worth watching, and there is some exciting stuff to come for her."
McBride has received acclaim for her role as Carol and has received rave reviews from critics alike during Seasons 3, 4, and 5. Many commentators applauded McBride's performance in the Season 4 episode "The Grove," which revolved around her character. Certain people singled out Carol's performance in "No Sanctuary," a Season 5 premiere that has received critical praise and a warm fan response. Despite the praise from some commentators and a fan base, McBride did not receive a nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series in 2014. However, she was nominated for the 2014 Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her appearance in Season 4. McBride was nominated for the Best Leading Actress in a Television series in March 2015 for her role as Carol. For the second year in a row, she received the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress on Television.
Following the conclusion of the 11th and final season of The Walking Dead, McBride was supposed to reprise her role as Carol in a spin-off series centered on her and Daryl Dixon (played by Norman Reedus). McBride dropped out of the series, which was relocated to Europe in April 2022, according to AMC, who claimed that McBride's decision to cancel was "logically unsuitable" for her to film in Europe.
