That sound you hear is Melanie Lynskey getting Emmy buzz for her killer — and arguably series-best — turn in “Digestif,” the third episode of the second season of “Yellowjackets.”

In the episode, which aired on linear Showtime on April 9, Shauna (Lynskey) and Jeff (Warren Kole) get carjacked on their way to Colonial Williamsburg. When their attacker holds them at gunpoint and demands they hand over the keys to their minivan, Jeff is ready to do whatever it takes to defuse the situation. But Shauna has other intentions.

Rose McIver's Liv gets some zombie company in the first of two new clips from the Pilot episode of CW's iZombie, debuting March 17.

The second clip shows Liv and her boss at the coroner's office with Dr. Ravi Chakrabarti (Rahul Kohli) discussing the possibility of a zombie outbreak, before Detective Clive Babineaux (Malcolm Goodwin) bursts in.

The series centers on Olivia "Liv" Moore, a rosy-cheeked, disciplined, over-achieving medical resident who had her life path completely mapped out.
