Not necessarily, but I do like characters that seem like they are real. They are relatable. If they scream and wail, you may understand why that is. If they laugh out of despair, perhaps you understand why that is. If they get into a heated argument, that's perhaps also something you can understand. All the characters in this show do seem to be brooding about stuff, like there's a ****load of tense drama going on that never quite reaches the surface. It sounds exciting, but it makes the whole thing less relatable and frankly becomes a bore.
Of course, this is just my opinion, but I feel like the characters in Dead Set, although it was only 5 episodes, express a wider variety of feelings and personality than the cast of Walking Dead which seem more like characters from a comic than real humans beings.
