Line 9: ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== Tropes: ===~~ * [[A Degree in Useless]]: Greg's marketing degree has gotten him a job spinning signs. Line 19: * [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: Mike always wears blue, Jeff wears yellow, and Greg wears red. * [[Faux Action Girl]]: Lauren. Despite being by far the most athletic of the group, she does the least actual fighting against zombies. Even in season 2, Shawna gets in a lot more zombie combat. * [[Fun ~~With~~with Acronyms]]: The government's Zombie War Task Force (Z-WTF). * [[Gamer Chick]]: Shawna becomes one in season 2 after Greg introduces her to ''[[Resident Evil ~~Revelations (Video Game)\|Resident Evil~~: Revelations]]''. * [[Henpecked Husband\|Henpecked Boyfriend]]: Lauren forces Mike to work out in order to get any. Even after the [[Zombie Apocalypse]], she's constantly bugging him about moving out to their own home, away from Jeff and Greg. * [[I Know Mortal Kombat]]: How Jeff, Mike and Greg know how to fight zombies. * [[Jerkass]]: Devin in season 1, [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute\|Derrick]] in season 2 ([[Character Development\|initially]], [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold\|at least]]). ** In both seasons, there's Roger, the teenage asshole that Jeff, Mike and Greg have to deal with on Xbox Live. They actually meet him in season 2, where he turns out to be {{spoiler\|1=General McRuby's son}}, and just as big an asshole in person as he is online. {{spoiler\|The ending of season 2 sets him up as the new villain, seeking revenge for Dad's death.}} * [[Kent Brockman News]]: Rod Putman in season 2. Line 30: * [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]]: Season 1 ends with the main characters facing down the horde of zombies outside their house, ready to kick ass. Season 2 opens with the survivors driving off in Derrick's (formerly Devin's) Hummer, with the anticipated zombie melee depicted through a graphic novel-style animation. * [[Our Zombies Are Different]]: Both shamblers and runners are seen, and "jumpers" are referenced in one conversation. Jeff, Greg and Mike also argue as to what qualifies as a zombie or not, and what movies can therefore be properly called "zombie films". * [[Product Placement]]: Mainly for the [[Xbox 360]] and for [[Capcom]]'s video games (''[[~~Dead Rising 2 (Video Game)\|~~Dead Rising 2]]'' in the first season, ''[[~~Resident Evil (Franchise)\|~~Resident Evil]]: [[Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City ~~(Video Game)~~\|Operation Raccoon City]]'' and ''[[Resident Evil: Revelations ~~(Video Game)~~\|Revelations]]'' in the second). Lauren also uses a Shake Weight as her [[Weapon of Choice]] in season 1. ** Machinima.com also did cross-promotion with another zombie-related series, the ''[[~~Myth Busters (TV)\|Myth Busters~~MythBusters]]''/''[[Deadliest Warrior]]''-esque ''Zombie Go Boom''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIfJYffR5xs&list=PLCAB3E120C348B56F&index=2&feature=plpp_video Two] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XevYW_s9PTA&list=PLCAB3E120C348B56F&index=1&feature=plpp_video episodes] featured cast members from the show testing out some of the weapons their characters used to see if they would actually work against zombies. * [[Scary Black Man]]: General McRuby. * [[Shout-Out]]: Mike's torn clothes after fighting the zombified Lisa look almost exactly like [[Evil Dead ~~(Film)~~\|Ash Williams']]. Later on, Greg {{spoiler\|chops off his zombie-bitten hand and attaches an axe to the stump}}. On the map of targets for the Z-WTF's "Operation IV", one of the names listed is [[Resident Evil ~~(Franchise)~~\|Raccoon City]]. ** The season 2 finale has the group battling {{spoiler\|a [[Captain Ersatz]] of [[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis ~~(Video Game)~~\|Nemesis]]}}. * [[Show Some Leg]]: Lauren {{spoiler\|1=breaks out of McRuby's jail cell}} by tempting his teenage son Roger with her cleavage. * [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: In season 2, the backwards-cap-wearing, Hummer-driving bro Devin is replaced by his nearly identical friend Derrick. Explained in-universe as Devin getting killed in the zombie melee at the end of season 1, and Derrick fleeing with the group from the party he and Devin were at (and taking Devin's Hummer and his girlfriend Shawna).
