Rick Grimes bellowing his son's name from AMC's The Walking Dead. The iconic 'Carl!' yell is a reaction meme for fail clips, dramatic edits and ironic posts.

This is the famous one-second yell from The Walking Dead: Rick Grimes, played by Andrew Lincoln, roaring his son's name 'CARL!' at the top of his lungs. It is loud, raw and gravelly, the sound of a panicked father mid-apocalypse, cut off almost as soon as it lands. Hearing it triggers instant recognition even for people who never watched the show, because the delivery is so over the top it became a joke on its own. Dropped into an edit, it turns any small disaster or dramatic moment into something absurdly theatrical.

The shout comes from AMC's The Walking Dead, where Andrew Lincoln's Rick Grimes repeatedly bellows for his son Carl across the show's early seasons. Fans latched onto the exaggerated Southern delivery, and the misheard 'Coral!' spelling turned it into a standalone joke that spread through YouTube compilations, Vine edits and later TikTok. It endures because the delivery is instantly recognisable and works as a one-word punchline for overprotective-dad humour, which is why soundboards and meme pages still host the clip.
