The reason behind is that the creator wants to "TWD" viewers to give the show a unique identity and not treat it just like any other zombie movies.

"Well, zombie lore is very popular. We wanted to avoid that notion of, 'Hey, why doesn't that character just shoot that zombie in the head because it saw all those movies I saw,'" Kirkman explained as per a report from Express. "We wanted to give you a sense that 'The Walking Dead' takes place in a universe where zombie fiction doesn't exist," the creator continued.
