Rayland is cool in his own way but he’s made his fair share of fuck-ups and doesn’t have to contend with a zombie horde.

In three seasons, Rayland has never had to deal with a zombie horde or lead a group of survivors. His private life ain’t a bed of roses either.
And in a series focusing on a rag-tag group of survivors, I’d have thought that avoiding the living dead for as long as possible would be a good thing.

I’m really not understanding all this hatred for Rick. Man woke from a coma and managed to survive zombie hordes(through luck and skill). Led a group of survivors back to base camp, led them to a CDC facility, and eventually led them to a stable farmhouse.

I don’t hate Rick. I am pulling for him, but:
I know he is SUPPOSED to be the leader.
I know this largely from the comics.
On the show, he is not exactly the kind of guy I would march on hell with, and considering The Walking Dead is pretty much hell on earth that is a reasonable standard to hold to.
His pimp hand also appears to have atrophied during the coma.

But the reason I would follow Rick is because he would go through hell to SAVE me. He inspires more hope than Shane could.

He earned his spurs on the Vatos story as far as I’m concerned. People consider it a poor episode but it showcased his ability as a leader. He saved his own and didn’t have to kill anybody else.

You just now started watching Justified?
where on earth have you been?[/quote]
Been slowly working through the FX line up, back to work next Friday though so I’m trying to get in as much as possible before my freedom is once again limited.

Over Shane? No question. Rick would do his best, Shane IS as big a threat as the walkers. Seriously, Shane is in the kill before he kills me catagory. I understand the group, save Dale, doesn’t know that yet, but it is still true.
