Of course, I never thought it for a moment.

Dang, I suppose now would be a bad time to reveal that I adore the show... LOLI like that they don't focus too much on the zombies, the most interesting aspect for me are the humans and how they react to the world falling apart. Season 1 and 2 were great, 3 was bad but 4 was a terrific return to form in my opinion. The show is getting pretty damn dark.The video game blows it out of the water though. I will unabashedly admit that it made me cry . It'd be incredible if they made a TV series based on the game! I think with zombie stories, suspension of disbelief is absolutely essential so weird logic doesn't bother me as much as it should. I barely flinched when Clementine opened a can of beans with the same knife that had previously been lodged into a walker's shoulder.What you said about the walker blood makes the most sense but the reason I mentioned the saliva aspect is because the characters in TWD often cover themselves up with walker gore to mask their scent. Living as rough as they do, there's gotta be micro-cuts that the gore could seep into but they never get infected this way in the show, comic or game. I think we could say that it's possible to get infected this way but the cut would have to be fresh, deep and you'd have to get a substantial amount of walker blood in this way.

Loads of people like the show. I understand the human factor in the world falling apart, and that the zombies are interchangable... but like, hear me out:

I'm standing around with a bunch of strangers, trying to set up a fence so that I can sleep without getting my foot chewed off. My wife runs up to me, and tells me she's just fucked some guy she just met. Alright, now I'm going to tell you now that my reaction would be this:

"Well that's nice honey, you just sit there talking shit whilst I put up this fence... and you know, not die." 

I'm fairly so sure that the world going to shit, death being a daily matter, and not being able to trust anyone would equal me not giving a fuck about trivia as who slept with who. We're humans, survival creatures, we've got ourselves a god damned on-off switch for that kind of crap. You think the West is so advanced because it's been in constant danger? Hell no, it's just we got to a point where we were so safe, we could afford to sit back and think about nonsense. 

That's my take on things anyway.
