Major Spoiler About ‘The Walking Dead’ Accidentally Revealed By AMC

If you are a fan of ‘The Walking Dead’ and don’t like spoilers, then I strongly suggest you stop reading this article right now!!

Yesterday on AMC’s site was a description for ‘The Walking Dead’ Limited Edition Season 2 Blu-ray. The description has since been taken down, but I grabbed a screenshot. In case you missed it, here it is:

Am I surprised by this revelation? No. I watch the show, and the growing conflict between Shane and Rick is building to one of them leaving or dying. During a recent interview, Robert Kirkman described the situation as a “powder keg” and said that a confrontation between the two men was “inevitable.” I actually figured out Shane would be leaving the show before yesterday because of the following: the progress of the show, the official casting announcement of the Governor for Season 3, and Frank Darabont’s desire to have Jon Bernthal (Shane) as the lead in his new show. And let’s not forget the fact that those who read the comic version of ‘The Walking Dead’ already know Shane dies and has lasted longer in the televisions series than he did in the comics.

This doesn’t ruin the show for me. I know Shane will be leaving, but I don’t know how or why. Will Shane leave and take Andrea and a few of the others with him? Will Rick kill him because he goes too far? Perhaps Shane will have a moment of redemption and die saving someone else. This is how I want Shane to go; I would like to see him have a moment of clarity before he goes down in a blaze of gory glory.

Now that we know Shane will be leaving, how do you want to see him go?

    I really hope they keep Shane’s exit as close to the comic as possible as it is really powerful and has ramifications throughout the rest of the series. I love that the show deviates from the comics but there are some key moments that I feel really should stay and this is one of them.

    I’m not a big reader, but watching this show makes me want to read the comic book series.

      The comics are so much more over-the-top than the show. You have no idea who will survive each issue. It’s fun!

    Hell, I would kill Shane had he slept with my wife!

      Rick was a bit too understanding. “You thought I was dead. Then you slept with my wife. Well, there are zombies around, so okay.” I know he and Lori were having problems, but it didn’t take them long. It almost makes me think they had something going on before the zombies came.

    I could see 2 things happening, either the Otis zombie gets him OR the group turns on him and kills him by firing squad…I guess another possibility is that he goes for Laurie and Carl kills him…

    I don’t like Lori either.

      Yeah, Lori’s not my favorite either.

    That was a great exit for shane, you could only take so much of his character….., the way father and son took him out, unfortunately the shot was heard by the walkers….., but losing the farm was a good twist, now they can see what the prison holds in store for them….. especially with Merle coming back in season 3….. BEST SHOW EVER!!!!
