It should be obvious.

No shit. They had a ceremony. Wouldn't you do something to honor the life of a loved one? They still have coffins for people known to be dead but bodies were never recovered.

Have you read the graphic novels?

So, over the last 2 days I've watched every episode. Netflix then on Demand. I've been laid up with a nasty cold/sinus infection so I decided I'd watch it.
I love it so far, the main characters are interesting and the zombies are done up really well.
Hopefully this show is on for a while.

with the ratings it has, its going NOWHERE!

This buildup better be worth it, more zombies please and danger

I'm really curious on what the "barn roundup" of the zombies are about.

My thanks to this thread since it got me started on this show.

It's obviously their friends, family, and neighbors. Beings Herschel the god freak thinks there will be a cure.

I love the absolute lack of logic in a zombie cure. These things are freaking decomposing from the moment they reanimate. Do they really thin they're going to "cure" them and return them to normal?

Yeah, makes no sense to me either. You can't cure dead.

Didnt that guy at th eend of season 1 explain that they are alive but the brain never came back completely its why they are mindless. Also, the country folks would hav eno idea. I could understand them being really religious and not wanting to completely kill them, but **** that, id take em out. lol

The one thing I never got about Zombies is why don't they eat each other?

I mean I know they're dead, and the flesh is rotting, but it's gotta stay good for a while right?

You'd think with all those Zombies in the barn, they would have eaten the new guy everytime they threw one in there.

I was just watching George A. Romero's Day of the Dead yesterday (which is underrated, IMO), the one where the crazy scientist is training the zombies to become docile and domesticated through a reward system (and is somewhat successful with one of them). Much in the same way that you teach and condition dogs, I guess I could see that being a possibility.

Uhhh, no... No organ function, just brain. Heart doesn't beat, no blood circulation, etc. They're rotting away. Hence theur slow movement and reflexes. The reason why it takes so long for them to wake up is because they have to get over rigor-mortis before they can move again. That process can take anywhere from 10-24 hours. In certain climates it takes less time. IE: extreme heat and humidity.
Don't ask me how I know this. I just do. (Ok,ok I have a lab set up where I keep zombies)
