      Second season was loaded with flaws and problems. It objectively was not even comparable to season 1.
      The fact that you call it one of the greatest seasons of all time on any show makes me think that you love shows based on the actors and performances and not the writing, is that a fair assessment? Because if that's the case, I agree that Jon did an incredible job performance wise in season 2.

    Well Shane dies in the comic at the same moment. It was a bummer in the comic, and a bummer in the show. But it's the arc of the character. They changed around a lot for other characters (like Carol not going crazy and killing herself like she did in the comic) but Shane was a pretty specific arc to push Rick to go the direction he did leading to the prison.

    It does make perfect sense when you think about that decision. His character was awesome but also a hothead and evil minded. Even though he was the first character to point out to kill the walkers for survival rather than keeping dead family as pets.
    He also did leave behind that big dude to die and ran away so it showed you his two sides as a character. He needed to be killed off to leave an impression plus develop more anger character in Rick.....Although I must say Shane vs neegan would've been one hell of a scene we may never get to see

    He was amazing as Shane.
    When he died, the show died.

      Wouldn't say that, Martin. But I respect your opinion. I get some people saw issues with the Saviours arc (7+8), but I think it's been outstanding, appointment TV all the way through. Only thing is, it's not the same without Rick, though.
