- There are very few characters who have had a larger impact on the show and more importantly, Rick Grimes, than Shane Walsh did. While only being in 2 of 11 seasons of the show, the impact that Shane had on our characters is still present to this very day.

Everybody hates Shane until season 5, where they root for Rick to become more like him
Shane didn’t beat Ed just because he put his hand on Carol, he used that as an excuse to take his anger out on someone because Lori wanted to distance herself and Carl away from him
Bro. The idea of Shane being banished in season 2 then coming back years later and replacing Negan as the man in the RV would've been fucking wild! Just imagine the shock value of seeing a completely different Rick and Shane come face to face with each other after so many years
During that stand-off at the Farm, Shane never wanted to kill Rick. He had every opportunity and never pulled the trigger. You can see in his face at a point that it pains him to be doing that. But it was all an act to get Rick to grow some balls and cross the line. Shane was carrying too much emotional weight from knowing that Judith is his but will never BE his, so he lost the will to live. Forcing Rick to kill him in cold blood would ensure that Rick would change enough to be able to protect his family (all of whom Shane loved). And once again, he was right about that too. Rick only understood it waaaay down the line which is why he admits he regrets killing Shane in 9x5.
my man really died because he couldn't stop simping
I always viewed Shane beating the living shit out of Ed not cause he was protecting Carol. No No no that was out of pure anger for ED not appreciating having a wife/partner. Something Shane so desperately wants in that moment
SHANE is definitely my favorite character. I feel like if SHANE was still alive and managed to get over the whole LORI situation he would've eventually gain more respect from the group in later seasons however they would still most likely want RICK as the leader. The character development within the group would continue to grow as well. The only thing I would say is SHANE'S physical presence would hinder RICK'S growth a little since killing him was supposed to be that major turning point in RICK'S journey throughout the series.
Shane was right about the world and to this day I wonder how he would've handled Negan, the governor, and the whisperers
Lori does play Rick and Shane against each other, tells Rick in the tent that Shane’s believes she and the baby are his,and while Shane was fixing the windmill and was set to leave, she played mind games telling him he should stay
The thing is. Rick knew what the world was pretty early on but he refused to accept it. Shane accepted it he even embraced it. When Rick finally accepts it he becomes even more brutal than Shane was. Due to him having time to stew on his experiences with Shane and The governor.
Having rewatched this show
Shane was the most misunderstood character in the Walking Dead.
disregarding the whole lori plot line (don’t even argue me he assaulted her), Shane was just too prepared for the world. others in the group wanted to cling to the way things were, to hold onto the ways of the old world even if that meant putting themselves or others in danger (risking people to go and look for Sophia, even though that almost got Daryl killed). He had a level head about the way things were now, it’s just the others didn’t see things his way. he was an asshole, stubborn, and in many ways a monster- but he was the blueprint for how the group survived years down the road.
Shane didn't die - He just moved inside Rick's body
In my opinion, The Governor significantly impacted group by changing their perspective about people and viewing everyone as a threat. They had numerous chances to assassinate The Governor, but they chose not to, and that it cost them everything. The Governor took advantage of the fact that they were still somewhat civilized toward everyone and attacked them twice, destroying their home and killing many of the people they cared about. That changed them forever. Their perspective of people was changed as a result of those events because to The Governor. They eventually came to view people as being more dangerous than Walkers. Now they started to see everyone as an enemy and became more aggressive, taking any opportunity to eliminate any threat towards them.
I can’t wait for this 🔥 Rick really is just built different. His character is the tru essence of The Walking Dead. Basically a living example of “Whatever it takes”
now see there isn't any love triangle, but Lori did constantly tell Shane & Rick different things. Like Shane is dangerous & can't be kept around, but also saying that Shane should stay on the farm.
I agree that Lori is very clear with Shane, verbally. However, it seems pretty obvious that she is hedging her bets, and making sure Shane will still be there for her, if something happens to Rick. She doesn't let Shane get too far away, before she reels him back in with her actions. I like to think this is why there's so much focus on Rick "leaving his family" to go on various runs and undertake various tasks. It's meant to elevate the possibility, in Lori's mind, that perhaps Rick won't return from one of these outings, and she will have to go back to plan B. If there's any doubt as to her intentions, it's made pretty clear by her reaction to finding out that Rick killed Shane. Shane was her back up plan. Rick took away an option for her and her burgeoning family, and she resented it.
Shane was very far ahead of the curve, and that's why most people hated him at first and why TWD fans cringe when thinking about Season 5 Rick, since Season 5 Rick became what Shane was in Season 2. Honestly Shane was one of my favorite characters early on in the series and it sucked to see him die and leave the show, however I take solace in how Negan more or less replaced what would be Shane and that could be why I liked Negan early on as well. They're both people who knew that kindness can only get you so far in a world without order and that has man-eating monsters roaming around. Maybe the similarities is why Rick chose to save Negan? Maybe he regretted killing Shane and wanted to try and make up for it to Lori' spirit to prove that he hadn't become a heartless man and still has some compassion left in his heart? That's my theory, anyway.
Favorite character, played by possibly favorite actor. He played Shane so damn good.. so believable.. so torn between hating and loving his character at the same time.
