The iZombie cast sings their theme song! |

It is very rare that a TV show has a theme song these days, and it is even rarer that you will ever hear the cast of that show sing it. Yesterday when the cast of iZombie was live Tweeting The CW show, they did just that. Listen to Rose McIver, Malcolm Goodwin, Rahul Kohli and Robert Buckley come alive to their opening tune. Just when I thought I couldn’t love the Zombie procedural cast anymore, they do this.
Now since I am talking about iZombie, I just to give McIver the accolade she deserves. Every week she plays Liv Moore and the person whose brain she ate. In other words, she truly is a great actress the way that she not only does she switch it up every week, she also switches it up in the episode. She should get more credit for that than she does.

iZombie’s Rose McIver and Rahul Kohli are crappy housesitters! |

iZombie’s Executive Producer Dan Etheridge gave the keys to his apartment to the stars of his show, and I’m sure he quickly regretted that decision when he saw what Rose McIver and Rahul Kohli were doing in this photo. The two of them left their mark, well at least one of them did as we can see picture.
While they might be sh!tty housesitters, they are great at solving murders. Tune into iZombie tonight at 9p on The CW to see what personality Liz transforms into after she eats the brain of the latest murdered victim. McIver should get more credit for the awesome job she does taking on a new persona every week so flawlessly.
Talking about McIver, I didn’t realize she was wearing a wig on the show. I thought they dyed her hair that bleached blonde.

iZombie comes back to life! |

iZombie is back on The CW tonight at 9p and Liv (Rose McIver) is as grumpy as we are that we had to wait this long for a new episode.
The show picks up three months after the season finale and we find out how Liv’s brother is doing since his sister didn’t give him her blood. She will suffer ramifications from that decision, but she had to do it. Even though the cost was great. How costly was it?
We also get to see how Major (Robert Buckley) and Blaine (David Anders) are doing since they were given the Zombie cure. Are they still Zombie-free or did it work?
Now when it comes to why Liv is so grumpy, it has to deal with the murder she is investigating. Clive Babineaux (Malcolm Goodwin) and her are trying to find out who killed the miserable old man on the block. Once Liv’s eats his brains, she turns into a major grump.
There is a new threat to Liv and the Zombies, and he is played by Steven Weber. It will be interesting to see how long he sticks around for because he goes from series to series.
One thing I hope that sticks around for a while is iZombie because I love the fresh take on the overdone genre.

iZombie lives, The Mindy Project is dead, but maybe undead |

The good news is that The CW picked up iZombie for a second season, the bad news is Fox cancelled the low rated comedy The Mindy Project.
Before you few fans of The Mindy Project go all Zombie, Hulu might pick it up for two more seasons. Personally, I never got Mindy Kaling’s show, so I am fine with the show opening up some space for a new comedy on Fox. How do you feel about the cancellation?
When it comes to iZombie, this was a really brainy decision on The CW’s part. This show is fun and perfect for all ages. Although the pickup makes it is even harder for a new show to get picked up by the network next week. You know, since Hart of Dixie looks to be the only show that won’t be back next season. Kind of explains why CBS wasn’t able to get Supergirl to fly over to its sister network and its staying put. That’s right CBS officially picked up Supergirl!

iZombie breaths new life into the Zombie genre! |

If you are like me, then you think the whole Zombie genre has grown tired. You also long for the days, when you liked shows and movies about the undead. Well, iZombie that debuts on The CW tonight at 9p is the show for you.
Liv (Rose McIver) is a medical student, who is all work and no play. That is until a friend of hers at the hospital asks her to go to a party. For some reason, there is a Zombie attack at it and everybody dies including Liv. Somehow, she wakes up and now she is a Zombie. She is dead, but she is still a functioning human being.
For 5 months, she has been reinventing herself as the new person she is. Instead of practicing medicine on the living, she is working on the dead at the morgue. It’s a natural food supply for the starving Zombie. Part of her new menu is brains and she suffers a side effect when she eats them. She starts to get visions from the dead person’s memories and that helps her solve their murders.
Liv teams up Detective Clive Babinaux (Malcolm Goodwin) and together they solve the murder cases. He doesn’t know her secret, but Liv’s co-worker, Dr. Ravi Chakrabarti (Rahul Kohli), figured it out and he wants to find a cure for her.
Each week, Liv will eat and gets a new case to solve, and we get a medical examiner procedural with a Zombie twist that is enjoyable to watch. This is a smart show with a lot of brains, no pun intended.
So tune in for a show that you will love at first bite, I mean sight.
