... and the rest is technically superb, with a cast hitting it out of the park, and everyone behind the camera creating a masterpiece - with one exception. The plot is just not there.

The writing itself is certainly fine, but the overall story is missing. I've been told it was supposed to be about zombies, and when it was, it was great, especially the outbreak in the 1st episode, or the scientist at the start of the 2nd. But from there on out it kind of fades into the background.

I've been told it's about a man learning how to love again, which is weird, because I'm pretty sure he isn't just looking for his brother because he got bored. I also don't think he's with his female companion for her looks.

Does he learn to overcome his loss? Not at all. Is it deep and compelling drama? Well, everyone is miserable, and they stay that way, with the exception of the couple in episode 3, which had a theme, character development and even the newfound ability to love, and that's why it's stuck between the following episodes like a brick in a sandcastle. A great sandcastle, don't touch it, you'll make a lot of people angry, but also... there's not really anything inside.

And then, all of a sudden, you are in a mall for a whole episode, and spent 45 minutes outside of the already shaky plot. The finale, the climax, gets something like 10 minutes. It's a little sad given the talent on display. You gave me so much, why not *everything*?
