Oooh, good eye. He was on Buffy.
Not only is the doctor dodgy, he's an asshole. And I don't use that term lightly. I'm not sure he meant to shoot up the truck - I'd much rather be in a large 5-ton truck than walking somewhere. Even if the "Doctor" didn't want to go to DC, they are still @ 800 miles away. And how on earth would they have had radio contact with DC? Perhaps the CDC had contact but it got blown away in season 1(?). And nobody of any real government power would still be in DC. They'd have been whisked away to underground bunkers somewhere.
I could have done without the Cheez Whiz. Which they couldn't call Cheez Whiz. I hate Cheez Whiz. That was almost as bad as any zombie!
Next week's looks good. Because it has Darryl. And more zombies.
