^Partially because the katana has a limited range, dulls quite easily, and can be stuck in bone. Secondly a weapon, any weapon is only as good as its operator! And I rather doubt the person in question was trained in any sort of martial art, more likely hack and slash with the three foot razor blade.
We covered swords in the old Zombie thread if you remember? And I preferred the Roman Gladius as its a stouter blade destined for both hack and slash as well as stabbing. But in the real world a firearm is preferable as distance is your friend!
As for the show, yeah they're really reaching with the sword thing, but I'll watch the premier nonetheless.
