iZombie

I really liked this first episode and the way they put it all together the why and the how she ends up working with the police and how she deals with being a zombie was done nicely. It has a kinda "6 feet under kinda feel but a little more light hearted. Also the situation is not gonna be real life so sometimes the situation is a little unbelievable, like cops aren't always gonna act the way real cops would exactly and people aren't gonna always freak at the concept of someone being a zombie etc. The humor was good too, actually caught myself in an unexpected chuckle. You know the kind that takes like a half second to hit you. very good almost gave it 9 stars but I like to save 9 and 10 for stuff I;m totally thrilled with. Acting was good the characters are likable. This could be one that moves up to the 9 or 10 start level after a few episodes

I have to confess I came to this show expecting camp Zombie chick, adolescent angst drama.

Well, I was mostly wrong. Certainly I do believe this series may have more appeal to women than men but only by a small margin. Its certainly got some chick flick elements, issues with the boyfriend and mum, but beyond that its got a whole lot more to offer too.

The extras, if you can call them that include top notch writing. The characterizations in iZombie are, in particular highly polished. The main characters are genuinely witty and engaging, in a very understated, down to earth way.

This is topped off with reasonable storytelling and acting from the lead and supporting cast.

All in all a very likable series I plan to keep on watching. A well earned seven out of ten from me.

Seasons 1 & 2 were pretty good. After that is just got really dumb.

You may think "another zombie show, how boring!". There are way too many zombie shows out there nowadays. Thats true. But you might give that one a try. It doesn't try to be "special" by giving the zombie a different name like "walkers" or something. That would suggest that people didn't know what a zombie is but i digress... usually the zombies are just the enemies but this time the zombie is actually the hero which solves crimes! But of course not all zombies are friendly! In short a cop/crime show with zombies.

Most characters are very likeable and well cast. And the bad guys are really great too! Especially David Anders. He is always a great bad guy. The whole cast work great together. Nothing to complain.

The story arc is mostly good. Some Elements change over time and most characters also go through some changes. This way they avoid repeating themselfs too often.

Best would be to just watch the first two episodes. After that you will know if you like it or not.

My true rating would be something like a 7.8 maybe so i'm giving it an 8.

The show is always fun but it has its ups and downs. Sometimes it's a 7 and sometimes a 10 but always fun. The lead actress in particular is always amazing. Her comedic and acting talent make the show work. She basically plays a different character every single episode. Her talents might be wasted in anything else.
