Line 57:
** Shane goes from Rick's best friend to being Rick's worst enemy. The turnabout is really remarkable. And before he tries to kill Rick, he decides to betray and kill Otis, who dies a horrible death.
** The Claimers aren't quite Governor caliber, but they're still frightening. They spend their time looting houses and raping women. And they're not safe from each other's wrath (not from Len, anyway). Rick Grimes was lucky to escape the house he was staying in alive, especially when Tony attempts to point out Rick to his Len before he strangles him into unconsciousness over a dispute over who got to sleep in the bed Rick was hiding under.
** Jocelyn just might be the most evil survivor in the series, aside from
* [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]]: Andrea. Though she's by far the most useless, and annoying character in Season One (except for maybe neglectful Lori), Season Two shows her slowly developing into a much more level-headed character. Slowly becoming closer to her comic incarnation as well. Unfortunately, she meets her maker in Season 3.
* [[Screwed by the Network]]: AMC allegedly decided to cut the budget for the second season while doubling the number of episodes. Then Frank Darabont was fired.
* [[Squick]]: It's a show about zombies. Of course this is going to pop up from time to time.
** In the second episode, when Rick and
** In the first episode of the second season, Rick and Daryl cut open a dead zombie's stomach.
** All zombies are pretty squicky, but special notice must go to the zombie the group finds in a well on Hershel's farm: after sitting in the well for who knows how long, it has become extremely bloated. When they manage to pull it out of the well {{spoiler|it rips in half, with a huge torrent of liquid organs pouring out as well as what very well might possibly be a whole lot of maggots}}.
Line 71:
** People aren't very happy with Carl, due to him {{spoiler|setting the walker from the marsh free, resulting in Dale's death.}} He does at least show remorse for his actions, but that didn't mean he didn't cause the walker in the first place. Thankfully, he becomes a fighter in Season 4, where he successfully defends himself from walkers and even lampshades it.
** Carol can be considered this one of these to some, at least if you don't consider the abuse from her husband Ed to make her sympathetic.
* [[The Woobie]]: everyone, really, but Helen from the webisodes deserves some special recognition.
** Sophia now too when you realize just how much she's suffered over the course of the series. She was raised with an abusive and potentially pedophilic father, witnessed the world ending and the dead coming back to devour the living, been on the run as everything fell apart, living in mortal terror every step of the way, and then [[It Got Worse]].
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]:
