The show just started to get better, it took 2 seasons to do that?


Enjoyed the finale last night, but they should have started that a long time ago.

Makes sense as the world just turned from season one.

Season 1 was good. At least the show had consistency, coherence, and foundation. Character development trumps action and Season 1 had good development. The decisions in Season 1 by the group born of ignorance were believable and in the early stages of the apocalypse when they were green. And there was still some semblance of society and protection, so they could afford to make mistakes. It's just the writers bit off more than they could chew in Season 2.

Season 2 had too many dumb decisions, and believe it or not, it WASN'T by the main characters. Those 2 mercenaries with GUNS in standing in the middle of the road waiting for walkers to eat them, Franco and his gang getting outsmarted by Alejandro and Nick, SurvivalistFamilyMan keeping 'power pills' within reach of his kids. They basically turned our "heroes" into "superheroes". People say they make dumb decisions yet they are generally the only ones that come out surviving in the end. They would be dead 10 times over if the people they encountered weren't written like empty-headed twats.

The main group, with no guns whatsoever, took out the church walkers with relative ease. THAT was a great action sequence because it was believably choreographed and had character moments within it. Just show our main characters surviving within reason. No need to continue to populate the show with stupid side characters.

I can't stand the look/make up of the zombies, they look like they just died, not scary, not creative. Almost as bad as Romero's Dawn of the Dead.
