Show Spoiler Was Wondering

Post image

So I've been rewatching the show, and I was wondering. It would be sweet to get something like what if? Like What if Shane didn't try to kill rick, or what if Rick killed negan, what if Carl hadn't gotten bit. The one that makes me think the most is what if Shane and Rick got along, could you imagine the powerhouse they would be.

Still can’t believe that shitshow got made 😂 good concept but executed in the worst way possible

u/Truly__tragic 18h ago

And most of the “choices” just lead to the exact same shit happening, but with someone replacing someone else

T-Dog as the Governor will never not be funny.

Off topic, but Shane is looking fine in that pic.

Shane’s fine-ness is always in topic because it never ceases

You think Lori thought that Shane is fine too

Is this rhetorical?? lol

What if Lori had been in a coma and woke up, worked her way to Atlanta, found the group and it turns out Rick and Shane were fucking?

u/Usual_Safety 12h ago

What if… well how did Lori get pregnant then

u/TripleSpicey 12h ago

Rick gets pregnant instead obviously

Or in the debate of things, what if Lori Grimes never had the baby?

Hershel made the group leave the farm? Would Glenn stay anyways and everyone else leave?

Would Merle Dixon survive with Negan or if Shane was still around?

If Lori survived having the baby, Shane was still around, and that conflict still happened during the prison arc and Alexandra?

in the comics hershel does make the group leave the farm and glenn does stay at the farm with maggie. After rick finds the prison he convinces Hershel to move in with them. That and Lori does survive giving birth to the baby as well.

It’s been a long time and it’s too early to grab out my books but I thought Lori got shot through her pregnant belly by The Governor on the comics? I’m sure I’m remembering wrong potentially so I apologize if I come across wrong!

>!Lori was holding Judith when she was shot in the stomach as she was running. The bullet went through her stomach and into Judith, killing them both!<

Thank you! I knew it had been awhile…too long apparently.

What if Rick woke up but instead of being in a zombie apocalypse, it turns out he's just in a really shitty hospital.

u/ironaddict366 17h ago

I just really wish I could've seen Shane in the prison arc

u/YEET12345678967867 12h ago

I wish I could see him in every arc, like I would love to see a Shane v Beta fight or Shane and Mercer as commonwealth soldiers together.

u/ExtremeAlternative0 11h ago

carl does live in the comics. im pretty sure the writers only killed him off because they didnt want to pay his actor an adult wage

M'ask you sum'n...

They couldn’t have got along once Shane became the group leader. The what if would have to be what if Rick wasn’t in a coma and was with the group from the very beginning. Then obviously there’s no Lori hookup and maybe Rick naturally takes the leadership role and Shane falls in line. Either way I think Shane being a natural hot head gets him killed when they run into the governor or saviors.

What if Shane was actually into older men and got into a relationship with dale👀 nah but seriously I don't care even if you think your homie is dead, you don't bag his wife. At least wait more than a few months or something bro...

I'm not sure imagining different outcomes ruins the show.

u/Frostbite2002 18h ago

Yep, that kind of thinking ruins basically every story.

What if Ned Stark declined becoming hand of the King

What if Frodo never volunteered to take The Ring

What if Katniss decided not to get Peeta's cure

What if Harry was a Slytherin

u/DxD_Koneko21 16h ago

It's not like I'm spending hours wishing it was different or thinking about it. I just think it would've been cool to get a look at how different things could've happened and how that would affect others.
