    ^^^ Great Point!

    This story is not just about zombies, it's about the people surviving and keeping their sanity throughout all of their ordeals. If you don't like it don't watch, simple. It has one of the best story lines than any other bullshit on TV, except Sons of Anarchy. Everything else has been done already.

    I think what Shane did was good and bad. Good because it opened up Hershell's eyes. Bad because it shows he's not very stable anymore and should probably leave the group.

    it is a little slow... I think they need more mysteries and questions.... also more survival and less dramatic speeches.

    They should doing something that creates suspense... the first episode when sophia went missing was suspenseful but then they decided to drag it out for 6 episodes... I'm not asking for a kill-a-thon... but I am asking for suspense, which they had last year, but is surprisingly absent this season.

    Mid season finale was great. Yeah, lately there has been more talking than anything, but its all good. I'm surprised how well Rick took it when he found out Shane porked his wife.

    Why do I watch it,good question.Answer is,I don't.I stopped after first episode this season.But from reading this thread I see its the same lifetime drama it was when I stopped.Don't be offended,its just an opinion.Judging by the shows drop in ratings,I'm not the only one that has this view.

    I think this season was the charector development that they didn't really do in the first season. The first season needed to convey the chaos and so there was no time to learn each other. People are now starting to find each other out.

    my .02, but I'm gonna keep watching because I think it's gonna get better

    True, I just think this season so far went a bit slow.

    Although it would be cool for a zombie show where a group of badasses decked out in jacked up trucks and military vehicles rolls through town to town blasting the shit out of zombies with machine guns and grenades. Find a working beer truck next to a broken down bus full of strippers waiting to be rescued. Then do it all over again. 2-3 seasons before that story line would get old.

    For those that want a less dramatic zombie show, Fox may have what you are looking for. They are in talks with the creators of Zombieland to make 30 min tv series called... Zombieland. It is supposed to be the more light hearted and humorous angle on the zombie apocalypse, like it's movie namesake.
