The walking dead bugs me. It would take so bloody long for the worlds governments to fall in a zombie apocalypse. And even then, a vast amount of people would survive on the worlds oceans. Then the zombies would decompose and fall to bits and freeze in the winter as they have no body heat.

Also who is cutting all the grass?

The thing about The Walking Dead is it's pretty much based on the fact that the idea of a "Zombie" has never once been thought about before the whole thing happened. In the face of mass panic and mob mentality, a government wouldn't do ****. Especially when the reason you're flipping out are ******* WALKING CORPSES.

Special divisions of the American government, especially whichever one was involved with Special Projects (aka Area 51) have designed hypothetical contingencies for everything, up to and including alien invasion. Zombies ain't nothin'.

In the case of Walking Dead zombies, that are both infectious and sub-human in capability (weak, slow, stupid), the 'crisis' would be over in like a day.

Max Brooks zombies, on the other hand...

I like Max Brooks's zombies because they are way more resilient than any other zombie I've ever seen, for example walking across the ocean floor and crossing the entire ocean that way, or freezing all through winter and being completely fine.

no because everyone in walkin dead is already infected. so when heathy people died they came back and ate someone. think about how many people die every minute. also it could easily be found out later that they are in some large quarantine and we just dont know.

Again, I said in The Walking Dead the idea of a "Zombie" has NEVER once been thought about. How can they have a plan for something they didn't think about?

If this is a plot point, maybe. But how do the zombies in TWD spread? Is it a bodily-fluid type thing or an airborne virus?

Everyone's infected, you just have to die. Cause of death is irrelevant. If the brain is intact, zombie.

And I understood that a zombie apocalypse is impossible in real life, since everyone knows what a zombie is.

Ok so if a zombie bites you in this universe you don't become one unless you die. I honestly don't know I don't watch the show.

Everyone is already infected. At death they turn, and bites caused severe infections which kill the victim.

So it's sort of like Dawn of the Dead, then.

Which is equally unbelievable, but better thematically than pretty much everything else.

In the Squawking Red, everyone who dies with an intact brain becomes a zombie. People out on the sea in boats or on islands would not be safe if other's were there, and even alone, eventually would die and become a zombie.

And thousands of mexican zombies illegally immigrate into the US each year and cut the grass.

I realise that, but i just feel that the governments of the world wouldn't be as useless as they are made out to be. Zombie population would thin out over time as they rotted away and the people on ships would be safer. They'd have an easy dead disposal system too of throwing them overboard before they turn.

I'm thinking of World War Z, were the government does retreat onto ships.

There are two problems with the boat theory.
Every individual's turning time is different. One may may take a week to turn while another turns in seconds. They would never be able to prepare fully for disposable without shooting everyone with any kind of illness or wound, which a group of people would generally detest.
And all those people on the ships would turn eventually anyway. In the series, everyone is doomed. There is no survival, there is no salvation. It is literally the end of humanity.
