Think the only thing it can be at this point is

everyone is already infected, you zombify no matter how you die.
 
I think Andrew Lincoln's accent is good on the show considering his not American although I've heard some folks say it sounds really fake

Lol, no worse than Norman's accent. He slips his southern drawl all the time in that show. It's pretty funny.

I'm glad you understand. :)

But, seriously. There's nothing wrong with Dale.

No there isn't. But having known people like him in real life, I think sooner or later his constant need to stick his nose where it doesn't belong is going to land him in some deep trouble. This episode pretty much confirmed that to me. I mean really, if you're a physically weak person in a lawless society and you suspect the strongest, fittest person in the group happens to be capable of murder, it probably isn't the best idea to go confronting him about it on your own.

Sounds consistent to me. Of course, I'm not from the South, so maybe if I was, I would hear various slips, but there are plenty of Americans who have kind of broken accents that don't sound like a perfect Southern drawl or whatever.

He hasn't sounded British at all, and that's the important part (IMO).

Yeah thought he was going to be killed in this episode....honestly if I was Dale I would have pulled a gun and shot Shane right there but thats just me and how I would act if zombies took over kill anyone who threatened my safety. Honestly Dale had was in the right for confronting Hershel about the Barn since it endangers everyone and Glen nagged about the baby way more than Dale. He seems to be a mentor of sorts to Glenn and the only one who is really close to T-Dog, I'm sure they would side with him in a fight against Shane.

Interesting thing is the group is stronger, and hence safer, with Shane than without him.
 
Yeah, but I think Shane is a bit more complex than your typical sociopath. I'm not saying that killing Otis was the right thing for him to do, but in doing so, he was able to save Carl. I don't think he would have had the same reaction if Carl's life didn't depend on their success. And although Otis did everything in his power to help in the effort to save the boy, the whole thing was still his fault.

I kind of view Shane as someone akin to Roland the Gunslinger. Deep down, he's essentially a good guy who would lay down his life for the things he values... but anything that stands in the way of that gets a bullet in the head.

Sorry but I just don't see anything good in the man (I tried to though) idk attempted rape and murder don't scream hero to me and he isn't a very fun villain...idk I see him more akin to Christopher Moltisanti as in he should have been dead in the 1st season =P but really they seem alot alike to me. I see him becoming a burden and danger to the group soon, though I can see him staying around until a real antagonist appears in the show.

Perhaps........but he's not there yet, he has not yet harmed the "group", but he has clearly aided the "groups" survival. Without his actions Carl would arguably be dead, and the effect of his death on the "group" particularly Rick and Lori might have been disasterous.
 
I can't stand the man but he is necessary once they leave the farm.

Damn, it's been a while since Season 1... I had totally forgotten about that!

Most People are saying Shane

My money, after this past ep is Dale.
 
It's Shane my friends.

Carl is going to bust a cap in his ass.
