As I'm writing this I just finished the 10th episode of the season 5 and I must ask a serious question: who writes this thing.
It follows a simple phormula. For every 15 seconds of action you get 10 minutes of boring dramatic dialogue. It's like what made The Walking Dead such a boredom fest came claiming lordship over FTWD.
People who write this need to understand that a soap opera tone doesn't go well with horror and zombies. Yes the drama involving the survivors and their struggles are important, but you need tension and actual moments of peril to convince us that the post apocalyptic undead world is still a threat. Without it, zombies are just cannon fodder with no relevance to the series.
