The show is about interpersonal drama more than it is about zombies and that's not me being reductive. The creator himself has said as much. It's a drama set in a post apocalyptic zombie world, not a zombie drama set in a post apocalyptic world.

That's why it's not my piece of cake maybe. Too much of that IRL to enjoy the same on the silver screen. Pressing a play button, I want these fantasy persons to work together like Legolas and Gimli, not fighting each other over small things.

Yea same. I want some dope zombie fighting. That's why early on they established that everyone was infected and there's pretty much no way to cure it currently. Season 1 or 2 iirc.
