I really don't have too much problem with the acting. They aren't great, but they do.

I agree with Jon about the Rick scene in the church.

It's interesting to think of the episode as being "way too boring." You can't have zombies in every scene all the time or eventually that threat becomes dull. You need to pace it out with the zombie interaction, more often than not, being less than the rest. Between the herd scene, the scene with Rick and the two zombies in the forest and the church scene, I think that was about right for zombie threats.

The show will really have to live and die (no pun intended) with the characters. If you don't like the actors, the characters or the dialogue and are just watching for zombie-killing action then I would imagine the show will disappoint more often than not.

Between reading the comic and the show, I feel pretty comfortable and invested in the characters. I am not overly annoyed or disappointed with any of them.
