And what's with all the cars parked willy-nilly in the camp? Wouldn't they have used them to form some kind of barricade, put up some fencing, etc?

I guess I will have to treat it as a regular drama set in a zombie world instead of a "realistic" type show. It's still a lot of fun to watch.

this is Lost 2.0 to me. A show that starts out with a really interesting survival / rescue story that gets abandoned in no time. I'm sure it won't be long before crates of food just start falling out of the sky.

I get that it's not what either show is really about, but I wouldn't mind just a tad more effort to make it more believable.
