30 Greatest Ever Moments In The Walking Dead
4. The Fall Of Shane Walsh
Everything about Shane Walsh's downfall makes for gripping viewing, and even after all this time it's a storyline that's rarely been surpassed by the show.
Considering his development as a whole, there are almost too many great, defining moments to count: The brotherly relationship he has with a pre-coma Rick; his affair with Lori; the sequence in which he sacrifices Otis for the good of Carl; finally going toe-to-toe with Rick; menacingly shaving his head; and losing control his group.
The best moment, of course, comes at the end of his story, when he lures Rick away from the Greene farm to kill him, only to be blindsided when his former partner puts him down first, and proves he's willing to do what he must to survive.
