It seems to me most of the people here are looking at the events in this show and judging the characters in a very logical way. But you have to realize that most of real life isn't very logical. Imagine how it will be in a setting like that. The characters aren't Spock, they will do illogical stuff. Like taking a bath with drinking water or bitching to each other when there's an apocalypse going on. The fact that they don't act like (for instance) the characters in the Resident Evil movies, who always seem to know what they're doing, is what makes the comic and the show interesting for me. Because we will all make stupid decisions under pressure.

And concerning the character development, it's there but it's gradual. I might be tainted by the comic, but I see where certain people are going and why they are doing the things they are doing.

After the horrendous end of s1, I'm enjoying the show again.

@kakature I was thinking the exact same thing. I mean, okay you're happy you found some water,great, but don't waste it all immediately dumbass. Besides, what were they going to do with the water anyway, carry it? Hell no. Pretty useless scene if you ask me.

Oh by the way. What the fuck was Shane doing? Finding water bottles and taking a shower with drinking water? What a douchebag.

+1 to most of the more negative comments here. It wasn't a -bad- episode, but it was constantly facepalm worthy, if you're into that sort of thing.

I can't believe these people are so dysfunctional, when for all they know they're the only people left alive. The main characters former partner (cannot remember any names) would really walk out on all these people. Really!? And not giving everyone guns?
I think I hate all the characters at this point (so that could be development), and the dialogue was pretty awful. The lost potential in the scavenging scene was particularly disappointing.

I read this episode was under the original exec producter, and later on mazzara comes in. I hope we notice a change for the better at that point.

@soulke I don't know what you mean exactly, but even disregarding infection, that was an arterial bleed, no?

@curve really uncool language.

@fdesmedt if you have read the comics you would understand this. they should have explained while at the CDC on how you become a zombie...

I read about character development here so I was eager to watch this ep... Disappointment achieved!

Already regret I watched the season preview at the end. Why would they show so much already? All my questions have been answered... f'ing retards. Do they really want no one to look forward to the next episode?
