Suspense is based of the belief that the danger is real and having every person in a group have professional shooting skills is so eye rolling that it kind of takes away from the suspense.
You don't have to agree with me but to call my criticism comical is off base as it's you that's defending a comical show while I am merely pointing at some nagging flaws. Like I said I like the show but that's despite all it's flaws and it's like some of you believe since it's a show about zombies it's above criticism.

I'm not defending the show in the slightest. I am only commenting on people having a need for real world accuracy in a zombie tv show.
Theoretical fiction? One would be hard pressed to argue Walking dead falls into that category.
Realistic fiction/ theoretical fiction (definition : although untrue could actually happen, may actually involve real people and real places)
Non-realistic fiction/imaginary fiction (def: create a rhetoric of realism that invites the viewer to suspend ones belief of real world details in favor of the narratives imaginary world)
