10 Stupidest Decisions Made By Characters On The Walking Dead

1. Rick Doesn't Tell Everyone They're Infected

The end of season one left viewers with a mystery as Dr. Jenner whispered something into Rick's ear just before he fled from the CDC, leaving Rick looking absolutely lost for words.

Many theorised that perhaps Jenner had found out Lori was pregnant through the testing he had done, but this turned out to be wrong. Instead Jenner had told Rick that everyone was infected, no matter how you die you would return as a walker.

Rick then decided to hold onto this information for the entirety of season two, even though it's crucial information that the whole group deserves to know.

Instead Rick keeps this secret until the final episode of season two, likely because the writers wanted to draw out the mystery and the second season on another bombshell.

Rick's justification is awful, stating that he wasn't sure if it was true and he didn't think it made a difference. Of course it made a difference!

Had one of the group died while Rick was away, that person could've reanimated without anyone knowing, then killing someone else! It has been one of the worst displays of leadership that Rick has during the entire show.

It's honestly surprising the group even continued to follow Rick after such a betrayal of trust.
