i just recently started watching.i hate waiting each week for the episode to air so i waited,and watched from the start to the present.something struck me,the dale character is seen to be the humanitarian in the group,whereas shane is the callas one.the main difference is dale hasnt adapted his ideas to the new world,where shane sees the big picture and adapts his thinking to a new paradigm.he was right to kill otis.the sum of profit and loss is undeniable.he saved himself and karl but sacrificed the fat slow one.rick is stuck in the middle holding old ideas but is sometimes persuaded by the new..

still shane was unable to think past his penis which was what got him killed.logically speaking his primal instincts.very interesting.dale died being a dumbass and got blindsided.

but yes,great fucking show.i like glen daryl and michonne.my guess for next episode is that the last two prisoners,will recognize the governor when the go to save glen and maggie.there seems to be a large cap between good and bad writing.as a series they are able to explore more topics.i find this fascinating.
