Just like with Eli using jokes or random comments as a means to get over the stress, Park rambles on like some people would when they become nervous. If you did manage to pay attention to her facial expressions you can defiantly see the transition of her being excited that she could survive but then becomes more stressed as she began to comment on the geological conditions that they might face.
Col. Young visiting his wife served as an insightful view on their relationship. With Young knowing that he would very well die out there with Emily not knowing the full truth of what happened, we know that he loves her enough to tell her the truth and to explain why he had to go. Emily then rejected Young's message with her saying that she's moving on and that Young wouldn't of said goodbye in Telford's body if he knew he was coming back. Plus there was nothing he could do instead of report the problem to his superiors.
We already know that Lt. Scott has a religious background. Although it may be deemed hypocritical for him to being promiscuous and all but who ever said that someone can't be like that while sustaining a religious belief. Sure, maybe in conservative times it would be rejected but this is the 21st Century. We have more relaxed views when it comes to sexuality and faith. Western society doesn't demonize people for these actions. Also, they're stuck on a ship with no way to get back home, it's not surprising that someone fell back on their faith as a means to support themselves throughout the harsh times.
Lt. James is known for her fairly large (in other words huge) breasts and this can benefit us into her character development. She is seen suggestively giving Eli hints into following her. This could mean, in future episodes she might use her assets (I mean seriously..WOW!) for her own manipulation. In other words she can flirt her way into submitting someone to her side.
So yes there is character development; we see Chloe sorting comfort in Eli, Park's mannerisms in dealing with problems, Col.Young's love for his wife, Lt. Scott's resorting back to his faith and Lt. James way of manipulation. How this isn't interesting is your own opinion but I personally found out a lot and important/interesting development in these characters
