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.
