I honestly think that the show's creators, the channel with it's trailers, the Comic Book fans, and the normal TV Show fans all have their own ideas of what the show is supposed to be, and I can't help but feel that's what hurting the show's quality as the creators/the channel want the Drama/Soapy bits. The TV Show fans on average seem to love the action meets Drama/Soap elements. The Comic Books fans seem to want it to be more gory and more Drama driven, with also more focus on the Zombies and better writing for Rick (the Rick stuff really is true with the Comic fans when I've heard them speak) so I think the show then is looking like a mess because they're having to incorporate all of these different things into the show and they don't all naturally gel with each other, and the show seems to be half hazard at pulling certain things off.

Personally aswell I do feel that they need to stop turning alot of the female characters into Stepford Wives, they're never gonna be able to carry an episode in this type of show if that's all their role is suppose to be.
