Angelus on 06 November 2014
Only read the first sentence, but yes. Basically you're absolutely right, and I had the exact same reaction when I watched it a little while ago.
I pretty much had a bad feeling about what I was in for right from the first episode when the guy on top of the RV on lookout with binoculars doesn't notice about a hundred zombies coming up on them until they're within about 20 feet of them. That kind of incredibly "convenient" writing pretty much continued all throughout the season.
Don't worry. Season 3 is much better (not that there aren't any smh moments at all anymore lol)
