For those that don't know, The Walking Dead is essentially the TV version of the Dawn of the Dead / 28 Days Later style zombie-fest.
I've started watching this recently and it opens with the guy coming out of a coma to find that the world has been overrun with zombies. My problem with it is, after he sees everything that goes on and after someone explains to him that the dead come back to life and try to eat the living, etc, etc, he doesn't say "So what we're dealing with here is zombies, right?" In fact, at no point has anyone even uttered the word 'zombie'. I find this quite bizarre. Have none of them ever watched a zombie movie? They're just the same.
