Angela Christine posted:That's my guess too. Either on purpose because you can torture a zombie a lot longer than a regular person, or by hilarious accident because they don't realize how contagious it is. Punch a guy until your knuckles are bloody and you might just transfer enough blood for conversion. Since we're in full HIV-metaphor mode: there's at least one known case of someone acquiring AIDS through excessively zealous gaybashing in exactly the manner you descrobe.

Angela Christine posted:That would never work. A zombie seems to need about a brain a week. Call it 50 brains a year. That means the farms will need at least 50 women of childbearing age to make up for the consumption of a single zombie, but probably closer to 100 because very young and very old breeders are irregular. You can't really use in vitro to speed that up much, because while you can get more babies per birth the babies are smaller with smaller brains, and it takes the mother longer to recover between pregnancies. You also have to be raising the next generation of breeders. 100 humans per zombie is probably not enough, but whatever. The poor zombies can eat cow brains.

Pan Dulce posted:Another episode of Major completely getting boned by life. Seriously, episode 13 is either going to have him guns blazing FINALLY saving the loving day and taking Liv by the arms in a glorious moment of devil-may-care, "I still love you," nonsense, or he's going to die and get turned into a zombie.

Good point, I hadn't considered that it might have just been a straight up suicide bomber mission. I figured the "if you're watching this I'm dead" video was for if things went wrong, not if they went right. But given Major's current state, a suicide bombing would be totally in character.

Add more Canadian character actors! Also from that little conversation it sounds like Max Rager is purposefully trying to make zombies. Edit: Aaand my CW feed has completely died. muscles like this! fucked around with this message at 02:12 on Jun 10, 2015 |

Disinfecting that kitchen for zombism must have been a bitch. Such is the cycle of life, first you're alive, then you're undead, then alive again, then finally dead again. Is the cure deadly then the disease if it cures undeath? Also, I hope we eventually lay off this brain of the week for an episode or two so we can spend some time with the "original" Liv.

Jesus gently caress that ending. Why can't we have nice things? Really hoping it's a fakeout and she explains she has some kind of awful bloodborn disease instead of having her tear the family apart without being able to explain herself. bamhand fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Jun 10, 2015 |

Didn't Liv's mom mention that she donated blood to her brother before? So yeah it's pretty much tell everyone she's a zombie or turn her brother into one. Fun times ahead in season 2

How did Major escape from the room? Did he seriously light clothes on fire, and then have the bad guy slip in his urine? That's insane. I love this show so much.

This was a great finale for a good first season. This is a show I can recommend. It felt so good, that Major finally managed to have his moment. "Try walking away from this." The musical underscore was fun as well. And I like the fact that he does not immediately forgive Liv. I am really impressed by his development. I said it before, but in the first episode I was all set on hating him. He is the best character on the show by now.

On top of not instantly forgiving Liv, I loved that he walked in the back door and blasted those zombies rather than follow them into the butcher area and get ambushed. Major owns now. Life has poo poo on him, but he's not gonna take it anymore

Major finally getting his time to shine was awesome. Liv using the zombie antidote on Blaine was really stupid though, especially since she injected major with it too anyways.

What a great loving finale. This show owns, but it's also kind of sad. You could just hear Liv's heart getting trampled in that final scene.

I fully support this trend of off brand action sequence music. (in the sense of using music you don't expect for action sequence music, not that 80s music is off brand) Now that we've tortured Major into an interesting character, whats next? Hunt for Blaine's zombie brain customers? Reveal of zombies as a public health threat with an inadequate federal response? (similar to how HIV was actually treated by the feds.) An explanation for how CW has officially become the licensed comic show network? I can't wait to see.

Excellent ending. I didn't immediately write off Major at the beginning of the series, but I'm still excited they made him into more than Liv's heartthrob Ex that shows up every now and then to cause romantic upheavals. I know it won't happen, but what if this is where Liv reveals zombies are an actual thing to the medical community? It could make for an interesting season two opening arc. Imagine how it could be used medically, if the cure is stable. Fatally wounded? Try out our two step life saving procedure! Just spend a day locked up with a severe craving for brains, get an injection, and you're right as rain! Never mind the handful of trucks carrying the medicine that got hijacked nationwide, one of which conveniently happened right here in Seattle. ... That sounds too much like Umbrella Corp., never mind.

I don't quite understand what the police captain was doing, he shot himself in the leg and then blew up the building, was he planning on running away before the explosion, or is his plan to escape from the morgue while everyone thinks he is dead?

In Sepinwall's interview with Rob Thomas, he said they wrote, but eventually had to omit, a bunch of scenes showing that Suzuki used to be a good cop, and that he hated what his life had become.
