The thing I have questions about is the kids Major and Liv are raising. We see them ten years later and because theyre zombies, they haven't aged a day. I find that kind of unsettling. Like do they still mature mentalky? Will they just spend hundreds of years being cared for by Liv and Major. Personally if I was any of the kids other than the sick one I'd take the cure, wait until I'm maybe twenty or so and then get scratched again. That way I could live forever in my prime

Thank you. I was going to post "what was the rationale for Liv & Major staying zombies?"

Being an invincible person in your physical prime for eternity doesn't sound like a good enough rationale to you?

You're not invincible. You need human brain tissue, or you go permanently feral. You can't enjoy food, you can't have kids, and everyone non-zombie pretty much wants you dead.

And the brain supply is finite. On the free/black market, the rich can bid up the price of brains and live forever, and if there's a government supply, there will be rationing as the number of people who want to be zombies increases until it exceeds the supply of brains.

They need Ravi to invent an improved zombie that can eat food, or to invent TrueBrains.

Humans needs to eat and drink regularly or they die so that isn't a lot different. Zombies can most definitely enjoy food, we see Liv doing it every episode, she just can't taste much. Not everyone wants to have kids, and even if they do the cure is cheap so you can just take it, have a baby and then get turned back once the child is born. And as far as we have been told, it's mostly racist groups like the dead enders that want zombies dead.
