Yeah, what's her problem? It's not like he tried to rape her something.

Spoiler:
Did no one not see the preview after the show where Rick throws a punch at Shane who then blocks it and head butts Rick? Their confrontation starts in next week's episode.

While I'm not trying to defend what he was trying at the CDC I think that if he wanted to rape her he would have. I don't think that scratches to the face have stopped many rapes.

I don't "like" Shane as much as I like his watching the character on the show. I like the watching his character regress. He's a good counterpoint to Rick. To me it's as if Shane is living in reality and Rick is way too optimistic. I think that as time goes by Rick will become more desensitized. Shane's already there.

Great news. Not my first pick based on his look, but I've been proven wrong thinking that before.

I don't know the character, but the actor is great.

I would seriously advise them not to go down that route. What sorta works in comics does not always work on television. The main problem is the governor comes off like a lame supervillian.

I'm glad to see this come back up ... I thought of it the other day. What did the doctor tell him? It is obvious now that it was not that Lori is pregnant. Renewed speculation begins ... NOW! I'm thinking that the doc told him they are all carrying the virus (or whatever causes re-animation).

Haha. You think people complain now? If they skip that story arc completely some people around her would lose their minds!

Thats a good guess...

Spoiler:
...considering that is a big revelation in the comic.

Spoiler:
If they handle the governor portion in a two parter, it would probably be okay. I am worried that a whole season centered around him will start to come off really corny and forced.
