It’s one of the things you have to overlook to make it work.
Just like you have to overlook that sometimes they all run and move very fast, and sometimes a herd runs really slow. Based on the storyline at the moment.
Just like you have to overlook the biology that reanimated bodies chemically decomposing have great strength and aren’t falling apart when they grab things or pull things or try to bite down on things.
Just like you have to overlook the fact how a dead body has any energy transfer at the cellular level to keep going when the blood is gone and the flesh is dead.
Just like you have to overlook they are all infected and the infection is somehow kept at bay while you’re alive, even injured, but for some reason a non-lethal zombie bite or scratch is enough to trip the infection over enough to kill you and turn you. But inhaling the fumes and particles of a burning zombie pile you’re burning up doesn’t apparently do anything to you.
Big holes? Big enough. But still entertaining for the most part. I hope that doesn’t go away.
Speaking of infection, what about before they knew everyone was doomed to zombiedom? Whenever I saw Daryl, for instance, pull an arrow out of a dead guy’s head and pop it back in his quiver I thought to myself, “Hey, aren’t you gonna soak that in bleach first, or something?”
The biggest thing you have to overlook — where in the world are all of the people who would be having the time of their lives? Everyone is so down, but there are tons of people who would relish every moment of it. Some wouldn’t survive of course, some would find it wasn’t what they thought it would be, but at least one person, out of all of the people shown, should have a permanent grin plastered on his face.
At least one person should be test driving every Ferrari he can find, telling every pretty girl that it’s time to repopulate, drinking every bottle of expensive scotch, and going on a zombie hunt every time he feels a little bored.
Instead, we get people like Lori, spending every waking moment wondering whether it is worth it to go on another day. I would have loved to see someone to have asked her (or any other who see this as pointless) — would you trade your current situation for that of a prisoner in a North Korean camp? If they can “go on”, why can’t you?
