The Walking Dead - Season 3
lordnacho:
I liked 28 Days Later take on infection where any blood splatter could turn them. Like the scene where the crow was eating a zombie then dropped blood into the guy's eye.
So I don't really care when I see people in Walking Dead hacking at zombies and blood splattering everyone, or someone doing surgical procedures on a zombie,
Btw, I'd much rather live in a Walking Dead world(slow zombies) than a 28 Days Later world(fast).
ChadTower:
It makes perfect sense to me because they don't know where the line is between simple wound and lethal infection. Who says that a scratch actually will turn someone into a walker? All they really know is that the line is in there somewhere and being wrong about it can get a second person killed. They err on the side of extreme caution mentally but I don't remember them actually shooting anybody until they had turned for real.

Exactly. Has anyone in the show actually "turned" from a scratch..? I vaguely remember the scene where Rick and Shane were at the school and they noticed some downed walkers and they mentioned something about no bites, then Rick just assumed it was from scratches..

Funny that's the first thing that popped in my head when Rick went crazy with the axe and started zombie moshin, blood all splattering in his face with his mouth all open.. To correct both of these issues for me, I just imagine they turn from zombie saliva.. not blood or scratches. And if they ever do show someone turn from a zombie scratch, I'm just going to pretend the zombie was biting his nails prior. :P

Have you even been watching the ---smurfing--- show?! Yes, I agree that walker blood splatter should turn them, that was something that bothered me from the beginning when they draped themselves in walker body parts to cover their scent from other walkers. BUT, just like vampire movies/shows, zombie movies/shows are all a little different, and Walking Dead took a slightly different approach (and it's ---smurfing--- stupid). The group already KNOWS that they are all infected and will turn once they die. People turning from bites is most likely caused by death due to blood loss.
This show sucks, but I can't stop watching it... :-[ Too many ---Bad words, bad words, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when saint censors you?--- inconsistencies.

Yeh I haven't missed an episode. I don't get why you would need to ask me that though..
