Oh - as for the Shane and Rick and Carl thing happening so late. Now that I think about it it makes sense that given the medium it's taken so long to get to this point. I think it's always been the plan to wait this long and if it had taken longer it woiuld have been ridiculous.
Being the medium that it is now and with a whole new audience added on I don't think the impact and consequences of what happened in the comics would have been as great (for the show) if it would have happened earlier. Plus it wouldnt have surprised me as much as it did. With RIck pulling the knife and all. I'm glad it panned out different. I was on the edge of my seat seeing as Carl wasn't there yet and not knowing what was happening but that Shane was definitely going to get it.








I don't see how everybody thinks that Carl put the gun on Rick. Of course it was supposed to look like that so that's what Rick thought - and maybe us - but he clearly saw Shane start to move and get up.
