It sounds like most of you haven't read the comic books. I don't think it's necessary, but it does make some things easier to understand.
I'd chaulk that up to waking up confused, hungry, thirsty and generally out of it. And FYI, we're almost 80 issues into the comic's run and we still don't know what caused the zombie apocalypse, so I don't think anyone would know anyways.
Not the same camp site. That scene was actually never in the books, the first issue opens with the car shoot out and then Rick waking up in the hospital. I guess they wanted an opening bang for the TV show, thus shooting of zombie girl (which takes place between the police station raid and Rick finding the horse).
It wasn't exactly clear, but the dead were all managed to be corraled in the room that Rick saw chained up and the dead woman in the hallway was most likely his caretaker that met her demise while caring for Rick. There was a gurney in front of Rick's room to try to deter zombies from entering. With those and the military outside, probably making a **** ton of noise, I can see how one lone person, who wasn't awake or moving, can be missed by the zombies.
Glenn's a pretty major character in the book, as is Andrea (the blond chick in the department store). The others in the store are new for the TV show and don't appear in the books.
First, how are you going to wake up in zombie world and not start asking about a million questions? I mean, you're not even curious a LITTLE how it all started? I get that the dude is not talkative but come on bro, get some backstory.

Does it seem that the show is a little out of order? At the beginning, the sheriff goes to a ripped up camp site and shoots the zombie girl. Later in the show we see the same camp site with his wife and kid there. It just seemed like a random flash forward since he never got to the camp site or I don't remember them leaving the site.

What I also don't under is how does a guy in coma survive in a hospital for two weeks by himself while zombies are running rampid thru the buiding but no one ever goes in his room? Every room is trashed expect his? The hospital staff never moved him?

So what's up with the Asian kid? Will we see him again?
