season started off slow but it is still a great show. i dont agree with the way the compare rick and shane though. shane is wreckless and doesnt think things through. which is dangerous but he is a think on his feet kind of leader. rick is more of a take everything in account for the benefit of the group and more of a democratic style leader. which is better? who knows? it really depends on the groups being led. i have seen shane's style of leadership get a lot of people hurt and killed in real world situations though.
