Ive never seen an episode. But I have seen the "honest trailer" about it and was amused. Its one of those shows I've been meaning to get to but just haven't started. I didn't get into the Sopranos til it had been off the air for three years and didn't start Game of Thrones til this year. Im a little slow with TV shows. One of the benefits to that is not having to wait forever for new stuff.
Walking Dead Returns...tomorrow...yay!

'Zombies' terrorize deaf family at Comic-Con march

It was, as the cliché goes, something straight out of a movie.
A group of the undead taking part in a "zombie walk" outside the Comic-Con convention in San Diego on Saturday terrorized a deaf family partway through their march.
San Diego police say a "deaf family with small children" was in a car at an intersection waiting for the marchers to pass by, and began to slowly inch forward because the children were afraid of the marchers.
Police say several marchers surrounded the car and began pounding on it. Some jumped on the vehicle, and the windshield was shattered.
"The family was scared so the father drove forward again trying to get away from the angry crowd," police spokesman David Stafford told the L.A. Times.
A 64-year-old woman was hit by the car and fell underneath the vehicle, police said. Members of the crowd chased the car as it moved forward until the driver spotted a police officer and stopped.
The woman, who suffered serious arm injuries, was taken to a hospital and police are investigating.

SAN FRANCISCO - An Oregon woman was arrested for breaking into a home and attacking a woman resident, while claiming she was playing a "zombie game," police said on Monday.
Sheriff's officers arrested Jessica Rocha, 27, at a home in the coastal town of Lakeside, said Sergeant Kelley Andrews of Coos County, adding that she was charged with criminal mischief, assault, unlawful entry, harassment and attempted burglary.
"She was making comments about playing a zombie game,'" Andrews said, "I've never heard of that."
The Coos Bay World newspaper reported that Rocha pushed 37-year-old Erica Tate down the stairs, pulled her hair and bit her.
Rocha was arraigned on Monday and is being held in the Coos County Jail on $77,500 bail, Andrews said.
Lakeside is about 338 km southwest of Portland.

Spain's real-life zombie survival game
First posted: Tuesday, September 16, 2014 12:43 PM EDT
The "Survival Zombie" competition is held in in Collado Villalba, outside Madrid, late September 6, 2014.
According to the back-story of the "Survival Zombie" contest, participants, who signed up as survivors, are trapped for a night in a city that has been infected with a virus that causes humans to turn into zombies.
The objective of the game is for the survivors to stay alive until morning by avoiding getting touched by a zombie. In order to do so, the contestants need to find clues that will help them reach a safe haven, the end point of the contest.
Survivors are not allowed to attack the zombies, a role made up of other players as well as members of the contest organization, so their only means of survival is by avoiding them.
A single touch of a zombie eliminates the player, but they can return as zombies after getting made up, so that they can continue playing. A group of actors dressed as soldiers are also involved in the game, helping some players against the zombies or making it harder for others to solve the clues to survive.

Zombie attraction turns fatal, patrons thought it was 'part of the act'

A teenager playing a zombie at a Halloween-themed corn maze was killed after falling under the event's "Zombie Slayer Paintball Bus," authorities said on Saturday, as the northwestern Idaho attraction's patrons thought it was just part of the act.
Jeremy T. McSpadden Jr., 18, appeared to die instantly after falling under the rear passenger wheels of the bus on Friday night, stumbling as he emerged wearing a mask and hockey gloves to run toward the bus from his hiding place in the maze.
Inside the rocking vehicle, which was creeping forward on uneven terrain, nobody immediately realized what had happened, authorities said. The attraction's riders had paid to shoot at the attacking zombies, pretending to slay them with paintball guns mounted outside the windows of a modified school bus.
"Everyone just thought it was part of the act," said Sgt. Ward Crawford, a traffic team supervisor with the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office in Idaho.
He said the other zombie players realized what happened after the bus moved on and the teenager from Spokane Valley, Washington, remained motionless.
This was the first year for the zombie attraction at the Incredible Corn Maze in Hauser, Idaho, located about 30 minutes from Spokane.
Authorities said in an media release that they did not believe alcohol was a factor.
On a post its Facebook page on Saturday, the Incredible Corn Maze said all attractions had been canceled for the rest of the weekend.

That would be.....creepy.
Although it does remind me, Stephen King once wrote a short story on that very topic!
he did...that came about when he and his neighbour who is a doctor were sitting on the porch drinking beer. They began to ruminate: how much of our body could we consume and for how long would it allow us to extend our life if we were in a situation with no food.
he then wrote that short story about the guy on the island
Make up your mind
I have can't you tell, it's both
that absolutely works for us girls
