I saw the pilot, and honestly, I wasn't blown away by it.
It is impressive in that it is a tv series. But the pilot itself wasn't that great. Too many aspects of it lifted straight out of other zombie movies (for example, the "Waking up in the hospital" thing, almost exactly like 28 days later).
That said, I didn't really expect the pilot to be that great anyways. I think the attraction of this series is showing the day to day of the zombie apocalypse, as opposed to a well defined story of escape from somewhere like most zombie movies. As such, I think I will only get an idea of how good the series is actually going to be by the 3rd or 4th episode.
