This show should be 99% zombie killing and 1% story, not the other way around.

Actually I want to see a mix... kinda like the new BSG and Lost used to do.

I want to see human story lines, desperate survival storylines, triumphant hope storylines, etc.

Predictable... and the finale doesn't seem to be too exciting... I'll still watch it though

Good finale. Not great, but good. This episode didn't have much zombie killing in it, but kept me engaged. Still predictable, but good story. I still stand by my episode 5 assessment.

I am glad Dale(?) survived. He is the only character that the show has me caring about. Stupid that they didn't address handless redneck, though. "Ooh, wait till next season to find out!" I hate that crap.

I liked this episode. I didnt want them staying in that building for multiple shows.

I bet the whisper didn't even have any meaning to it... yet. They just did that to leave it open ended for the writers for the next season.

The doctor probably told him his wife is pregnant. Meh, if you really want to know, I guess read the comic.

Too bad the cop buddy wasn't a completely different race... then it'd be comical when the baby comes out. Heh.

When I watched last nights, I didn't even know it was a "finale". So the finale "big reveal" was some high level biological explanation of how the zombies are made. (rule #249: a good zombie story never uses the term "zombie")

There was really no cliff hanger to the finale, but I guess they didn't know they would have a season 2 when the story was written? Or was the "french were the last" give a mission directive... that if anybody, the French station would have hope for solving the problem.

I still like the show. It's no Lost yet, but it's interesting. I really hope that they figure out a series finale date so that number of seasons is finite. Without this level of focus, it becomes "milk it" affair... and that would kill a show like this.

Yay, figured that'd happen since it's doubling the episodes to a real season.

Check out Machima on Youtube (yes a gaming channel) but they have a zombie playlist, hilarious.

I went through the site to see if there were any previews for the next season. All 6 episodes of the first season are posted on the main website if anyone was interested.
