Yeah, the first person shots only work with a couple characters. However, there was so much wrong with this episode that I don't know where to begin. What they successfully accomplished is a detachment from all the characters and apathy for the show. Human nature detaches from loss and the fan base was bracing for the loss of a central character, which is the reason why everybody is pissed that this scene was half baked and ended with the big bad beating the tar out of the camera guy. Its amazing how a show can have moments of brilliance only equaled by their moments of absolute stupidity.
