I agree 100% jackhammer, the series has completely lost all interest to me because of this season. I gave the first season the benefit of the doubt because very few shows have stellar moments in the first season, and was anticipating the second season to blow me away. Besides the better than average first episode, the show really managed to devolve in a way I didn't think possible with the last six. To put it bluntly... the show is boring. How one makes a show about a zombie apocalypse boring is beyond me but the writers found a way. I guess it's like you said, it's a soap opera that happens to contain zombies in it, kind of like that novel Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. The zombies don't really add anything to the plot, but if you put the word "zombie" in the title, people will buy it regardless of quality.
