He's like the guy on Boys 2 Men who always talked in the songs. Yeah, nobody remembers that guy either.seriously, that guy has pretty much no value on this show. you have to feel for him a bit landing a role on a successful show, but they could put up a cardboard cut out in the background of T-dog and no one would no the difference. his time should be coming soon

And what is with Herschel- I really want to know more about is background. Can someone fill me in? Do the comics tell about Herschel's history?
No, you're not the only one. If they kill Shane off, they're going to have to replace him with somebody similar if they want to have any sort of interesting character interaction. Dale vs. Short Round just isn't going to get it done.I might be the only one, but I think Shane is awesome. It's always good to have a ticking time bomb waiting to explode, not knowing who or what he's going to lose it on next. I hope they keep him around, he keeps things interesting.
He's a good character for the show, helps keep the tension levels high. Which is not to be confused with liking his character, which is lacking. I enjoyed a semi-drunk Hershel telling him to shut his fat mouth.I might be the only one, but I think Shane is awesome.

I think it was absolutely conniving. Lori feels tremendous guilt over banging Shane and it's possible (if not probable) she still has feelings for him. The best solution for her to cope is for Shane to be gone. That way she won't have to deal with what she did and any feelings she may still have. There's also a survival of the fittest mode going on here too in my opinion. In that respect, Lori is a lot like Shane. That's probably why she's always been drawn to him - yes, I agree with Shane that what happened between them was a long time coming.I also hope they don't kill off Shane but I don't know how they can continue on the current path without something happening between Rick and Shane. At this point, I don't know if they can really co-exist any longer. Shane's still trying to stake his claim to what he thinks is his and Rick isn't going to just take that - especially with Lori pulling his mental strings now.
I guess I just wouldn't consider it "conniving," which has kind of a negative connotation, for a wife to give her husband a heads up when she senses imminent danger. She's made a lot of mistakes along the way and Og knows she's a dislikable sort but she's been married to Rick for some time and hasn't wavered since she found out he was still alive.The writers are facing a difficult challenge in keeping Shane around, which is, as several have noted, a good thing for the series. Suppose he forces a confrontation with Rick and even wins it. Are the rest, especially Darryl, going to stand for that? Darryl may be oblivious to it now but do we really expect him not to take action if Shane should kill Rick, take his woman and family and assume command of the group? It's one thing to have a disagreement over operating decisions, it's another to commit homicide for personal gain.
This is what I was expecting last night. I remarked to Mrs. SB during the scene that she's used to being treated like that by a man.What's up with this sudden seduction of Darryl by Carol? Are we in for a scene where Darryl is berating her and throwing her into walls and then all of a sudden they're tearing at each other's clothes? Actually, that sounds a little hot.
Between the two previews for next week's episode, I don't see Shane being part of the group anymore.
You're weird.
Shane had just finished telling her they should have always been together, like he had a crush on her prior to her and Rick being married. He made it perfectly clear what he thought about the baby and how their future should be. I haven't seen anything from Lori to make me think she has any feelings left for Shane.They're going to kill off Shane, and no, I have not read the comics.
Sudden? They've been setting up that unlikely couple for a long time now.What's up with this sudden seduction of Darryl by Carol? Are we in for a scene where Darryl is berating her and throwing her into walls and then all of a sudden they're tearing at each other's clothes? Actually, that sounds a little hot.
IGN Comics: Last issue, we saw the survivors take the first steps towards investigating the zombies and maybe trying to figure out what causes someone to become a zombie. Do you have any intention of ever explaining what caused the zombie outbreak? Kirkman: I really don't. I think that what the book has going for it right now is a sense of realism, if that makes sense. There are a lot of girls reading the books and stuff, and I get a lot of female readers and people who don't read comics and don't read superhero comics. And so if you take away the zombies from the Walking Dead, it's really just an accessible story about people's lives in an extreme situation. And I feel that if you were to sit down and say, you know, a space spore landed on Earth and infected a bunch of people…There's no explanation for the zombies that doesn't push you further into the realm of science fiction, and I feel like it would kind of kill the believability, as odd as that sounds for a book about a bunch of dead people walking around."when theres no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth" that could always be the cause !!
yuphe coulda goten them all killed . i was expecting them to shoot through the door and kill short round
Maybe he didnt have much faith in his backups,glen and hershal...they werent much help with the first 2 guys
Yep!I have a feeling that some people are gonna need his help when the #### hits the fan and they will have to bite the bullet and admit that Shane's way is the best way to survivePlease, for all that is good in the world, kill Glen and Dale though
Shane is one of the top characters on the show and Herschel is starting to show promise. I definitely don't want to see Shane get whacked, it would probably ruin the show for me (too many cardboard cutouts in the cast). Great episode last night, the show is gaining steam.'BustedKnuckles said:Rick vs Shayne...a slow boil thats about to bubble over
To be fair, Rick was prepared to let them walk through the door just as tdoss suggested, but short round jumped in front of it.
It's only the way to survive if Shane doesn't decide to shoot you in the leg for what he decides is the greater good.
Nah. I think it adds to the craziness of his character.
like Curly..woo woo woo ynuck ynuck
I think that's my problem with him. LEAD. Don't just react.I would've told them the plan. #### your weapons and be ready...let them come through the door but don't shoot until I do.
Me or you and your being overweight is a burden to our/my survival PLUS I need to get back to save a little boy that is almost family?BANG!
Standard horror MO, IMO!
Shane is less interested in the greater good with each passing day. He is contemplating the murder of at least two members of the enclave now.
Exactly. As soon as Shane sees no use to you, you're dead. Not the guy I'm staking my survival on.
Well hit the treadmill fatty and always be an asset Be a killer in a zombie world
Considering that Shane wants to keep the most useless person in the group alive at all costs, I question his ability to decide who is useful and who isn't.
No DQ in a makeshift cage set up in the barn?
What would you have done in the scenario as given above?
Hug it out imo.
Forget rehashing what he did to Otis. Think about him wanting to take out Rick and Dale and maybe Hershel, too, all to either rid himself of a critic or to take something they have. Think about the survivors tiring of Shane's tyranny in short order and wanting to leave -- he'll shoot whoever he thinks is the ringleader. Being willing to sacrifice anybody everybody so that he can survive is why you can't have Shane around for too long in a zombie apocalypse.
