2. The bulk of the epidemic and deaths happened in the first month or so (while Rick was comatose).
3. Dead people cease to consume ammo

Provided they stick to common calibers, all they'd need to find are a couple of boxes here and there to keep them going (as long as they aren't fighting large scale battles like the fall of the farm). Then you have to assume they occasionally find a cache or case that got left in a store or police station for a substantial bump of at least one or two calibers.

Exactly

It appears they're going from house to house, so they're likely picking everything up as they go...including now "suppressors"

They acknowledge dwindling food and ammo in this episode... We watched all of season 2 yesterday leading into the premiere... awesome.

Zombies in riot gear made me chuckle.

Another thing that made me laugh was how they showed us the Prison off in the distance at the end of Season two.

Now it turns out they wandered around all winter without finding it. Then, at the last moment, they find it by taking a 30 second stroll through the woods?

I was curious why they go into the dark maze quietly. I mean, why not stand at the door and draw them to you? At least then you know what you're dealing with without going into the dark maze.

How entertaining is logic in a TV show?

I am wondering if herschell will convert. He got bitten on th eleg but was several minutes later that the leg was amputated. I am sure some of the virus made its way north. Also wonder what will happen with those prisoners they encountered at the end.

They are all probably felling a bit rapey, being they've been in the joint and all. Four females just showed up, and at least 1 of them puts out.
I predict at least one of them eats it next week.
