Spoiler

Shane won't necessarily die in the tv series like in the comics seeing as they already had Carl not kill him in the woods.

He still might die but there's no real indication they will kill him off in the show. The tv show seems to be taking its own path as a good deal of events have already been changed/altered.

If I was a betting man. 10 bucks Dale will snap & kill Shane on the show & then Carl kills Dale. I can almost feel it & then Andrea kills Carl. Followed by Lori killing Andrea. With Daryl killing Lori & then Rick shooting Daryl to death. Glenn comes running & then Hershel kills Glenn & then Hershel kills Maggie & Rick kills Hershel. Zombie Shane kills Rick & then everyone else wakes up as Zombies. T-Dog who was no where around comes in gets killed by Zombie Daryl

While it doesn't 100% confirm...

The actor playing Shane is already attached to Frank Darabont's LA Noir pilot at TNT.

Yeah, the minute I heard that he was cast on that new show I was happy cause of what it would mean for him on the show. I only hope that they let the person that did it in the comic do it on the show. I dont want them to take that character building device away from him.

Hmm that is interesting. I hope not as I really like Shane and I would

prefer if he lives.

[blackout]Shane's death[/blackout] is a landmark moment in the comic. And given the road they've put him on in the series, I'd be shocked if it doesn't happen and soon.

 

[DrDoom]

Would they show

Spoiler

a kid, carl, killing him though

 

[craigdbfan]

Then again this isn't the comic and the tv series has already altered and changed quite a bit of things. So it's not within reason they just don't follow that.

The writers have said that they like making people think they might be going one way (following the comics) while completely deviating shortly after.

 

[carrrnuttt]

Why would you like Shane? Shane is one of the more loathsome people in that show.

 

[craigdbfan]

Because while he is terrible at expressing himself or getting a point across more often than not he's actually right.

I appreciate that about the character. He might not be the most approachable or likeable character but that doesn't mean his actions don't have pragmatic truth behind it.

 

[DrDoom]

He has the right idea but just goes about it the wrong way. I personally like his character and am glad they kept him alive this long but I DO want Carl to go the same path he did in the comic.

then again I always seem to gravitate towards the ******* characters in shows/movies lol

 

[carrrnuttt]

Because while he is terrible at expressing himself or getting a point across more often than not he's actually right.

He's right about survival issues that involve him and Lori, yes. But he couldn't care less about anyone else that's not named Lori. Even Carl is just peripheral, since he's integral to Lori's well-being. If it somehow benefited him to kill everyone in front of Lori, I do not doubt for a second that he'd do it. So no, I don't, and wouldn't want someone like him around. He's also basically attempting to play leader so that he keeps Lori impressed, and to appease his own psychotic need to be in control.

If you had said Daryl, then I'd be there, right along with you.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I'm on book 7 and wow, this **** just keeps getting better. They have a hell of a lot of great material to stick to in the years to come.

 

[antsman41]

god I hate Lori subplots.

Can she just get killed...?

[HighFivingMF]

Before I read the words I thought someone mocked up a spoof of that joke Kirkman did where Rick fought aliens.

I like this but idk if Zombie Daryl would even notice T-Dog no one on the show seems to.

As much of a big deal it was for Carl to be the one that killed Shane in the comics, I really don't get that vibe from the show, to me it really does feel that the show is setting up Dale as the one to finally take the shot, Shane's taunting of him has been ongoing for a while now, and Dale may just finally snap and save Rick actually taking the shot and finally putting that rifle of his to some use.

 

[DrDoom]

I wouldnt mind if that happened, I just dont want carl to NOT become the most badass 10 year old on tv

Spoiler

Idk I think they are setting Carl up for it nicely Shane teaching him to shoot, him being a good shot, Carl being desensitized willing to do what needs to be done (when he said he would have killed Zombie Sophie himself) and then there is the one shot from the trailer oh him pointing a gun at something while wearing Rick's hat.....only way I don't see it happening is because it's a kid killing someone and censor people don't like that. Besides Dale had his chance.

 

[DrDoom]

If he were the one to do it they would just have him and Shane be in diff shots. The two times they have shot kids, the kid and the shooter were never in the same frame. One of the producers mentioned this on the talking dead.

 

[Tonicky]

New episode soon is excite!!!

 

[Donut]

Die Lori Die

 

[craigdbfan]

Seriously can't wait.
