The Walking Dead

The Day Will Come When You Won't Be - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: When Negan makes Rick get the axe from the top of the RV, Rick is fighting the Walkers as he heads for the RV door after picking up the axe. He slams a walker's head into the back of the RV, blood splattering everywhere. Next scene shows Negan and Rick driving back to the group, and the back of the RV is spotless.

Rock in the Road - S7-E9

Continuity mistake: When they get back to the community after stealing all explosives from the road, the Saviors show up and search for Daryl. When they do, that's when they show a one-second clip of the guy Dwight killed a few episodes back, the guy who said there was nothing to go back to. The guy is then shown to be a walker in the defense yard of the Saviors. So, how is he shutting the van doors of a vehicle in this episode? (00:43:12)

The Well - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When Morgan and Carol leave The Kingdom on horseback to take Carol to her "gone, not gone" house, Morgan is riding on Carol's right. When they are shown arriving, and Morgan dismounts, his horse is slightly in front of Carol's and to her left. Morgan throws down his staff and slings his reins over the picket fence. Then, he returns to help the still recovering Carol from her horse, and we see Morgan's horse is back standing neatly next to Carol's on her right. (00:42:13 - 00:42:52)

Hearts Still Beating - S7-E8

Continuity mistake: When Rick and Aaron are loading up the supplies from the houseboat, they put a container with a red can in straight and flush with the other container, so that the lid sticking up is to the left. In the interior shot of the van, the container is twisted sideways and pushed back with the lid to the front.

Indifference - S4-E4

Visible crew/equipment: During the scene where Daryl's group finds the auto shop, Daryl spits on his hand to wipe the window and is surprised by a zombie banging up against the window. He says, "Got some friends inside" and walks away. The camera pans to the window and a crew member wearing a white hat and (what appears to be) an orange shirt is visible in the reflection. He seems to be taking a picture (probably for continuity, which is pretty ironic). (00:09:50 - 00:33:05)

Carol: haven't had a chance to say, I'm glad you came back.
Daryl: To what? All this?
Carol: This is our home.
Daryl: This is a tomb.
Carol: That's what T-Dog called it, thought he was right, until you found me. He's your brother, but he's not good for you. Don't let him bring you down. After all look how far you've come.

Questions

Show generally

Question: Has there been any explanation (in-show or by show creators) about the inconsistency of what attracts Walkers? They've shown that people who cover themselves in Walker guts aren't detected or attacked. When it rained, the rain washed off the guts and then the Walkers do try to attack. But if people hide under cars or don't make noises, the Walkers don't detect them. But it's also been shown that people under a pile of "dead" walkers are still attacked. So what causes a Walker to attack?

Bishop73

Answer: Walkers are attracted to noise, they can tell who's dead and who isn't dead, in S1 when Rick and Glenn cover themselves in walkers' guts they're able to get far by walking through the herd of walkers because they smell like they're dead, but as soon as the guts get washed off by the rain the walkers immediately attack them, if you draw attention to yourself they will attack you which we've seen that many times throughout the series that it's not always successful. Whether you're covered in guts hiding under dead corpses or under a car.

Answer: Walkers use sight and sound to find their prey, with sound being their first choice. When the characters cover themselves in guts, they aren't attacking because they can't "see" them and they're not making any noise. The same goes for when they're hiding under cars - walkers can't hear or see them. They'll go for anything that makes a noise, regardless of what it is. It's also very likely that walkers don't have the ability to smell, since they can't find people hiding under cars. Nor can they smell the Whispers who walk amongst them.
