    Maybe what we think of as zombies are people with advanced kuru?

    It's all just calories in, calories out is it?

    Isn't that a comedy TV show about zombies?

    The pro is that it's probably pretty darned funny since Drew Barrymore is in it, and the con is the fate of the neighbors of people who are on the Santa Clarita diet. :open_mouth:

    Yes, that's exactly what it is. Methinks OP is either trolling, or is very confused.

    Found it completely vacuous ... one might say "empty of any essential brain calories". Going back to a whole (brain) foods diet of a wider/better variety of shows, with more depth - dare I say "meat" - to them.

    Yeah, that's what I figured. Human flesh is fine as long as it fits into your calorie goals, right? I just can't find the correct entry in the MFP database. :/

    Oh....this is a joke post. Thanks for the good giggle. ;)

    If anyone has, I think they will plead the 5th.

    I know you're not talking about Zombieland because that was kitten hilarious.

    This line made me LOL...

    Husband: "You can't eat our neighbor."
    Wife: "The man is knee deep in his herb garden. He is seasoning himself." :D

    Omg I was not keen on this show, even though I LOVE zombie shows. iZombie is literally my jam and Zombieland is essential. I just hate Drew Barrymore. I find her so annoying. But this quote has convinced me and I will renew my Netflix subscription tonight. Thank you very much, kind entertaining stranger.

    Persevere. The first episode was terrible. Laughed out loud continuously through the next couple. Great one liners.

    I watched the trailer for it and wasn't really intrigued and I love zombies but this thread makes me want to check it out!

    Side note: my husband and I usually watch every walking dead season premiere while eating pasta and meat slathered with tomato sauce. It's like our tradition haha

    I don't get this whole thing these days with zombies.

    At all.

    You all can just shamble off my lawn, okay?

    These are the only zombies I was into:

    Your avatar is very appropriate for this thread! "I'd like a nice chianti and some fava beans with the mailman please". :p

    No.. this movie was british i think.. i still cant remember what it was called.. maybe google will help me.... Shaun of the dead. There we go. i knew google would help hahaha

    I love Shaun of the dead, there are so many sub-references top other vintage horror movies, video games and culture references, so very British and really funny.

    In other news human blood is on the MFP database....
