OK so lets have a discussion on Season 2 of The Walking Dead on AMC. As a horror TV show this is a instant classic not only from story and character angle but also the special effects and filming are on par with any big cinema release and may surpass even some of those. The big question is its a episodic show so I get that it has to have character development and cannot be action all the time. But this season seems to be taking the zombie out of the show and it is becoming more of a morality soap opera.  That being said in the first run of 6 episodes when they were looking for Sophia were some of the best in developing the groups dynamic we started to see how the characters delved into how the group thought of them as a person. We learn of a impending pregnancy by Lori and then we wonder if its Shane's or Ricks. Shane continues his struggle with Rick leading the group and how he should be the leader and only he can keep the group safe. This isn't meant to be a review or a blow by blow catch up its meant to wonder if the series is taking the character dynamic to far and sacrificing the scare a little bit.
