They need more of that.

Maybe get a random transmission on the radios they carry, see a plane or something of that nature. The same characters killing zombies gets kind of repetitive. Don't get me wrong, it's still entertaining seeing zombies get rocked for an hour a week but they've been milking the same circumstances a little too long.
You'll really like where the series goes from here if it follows the comics at all. The comics are really more about humans becoming the "beasts" with the zombies being just sort of a periphereal threat that serves to expose the animal nature of humanity (very Lord of the Flies).
