When over-achieving medical resident Liv Moore attends a party that turns into a zombie feeding frenzy, she ends up joining the ranks of the living dead. Determined to pass as human despite her pale appearance and newly listless demeanor, Liv forms a plan to resist her drive to consume fresh human brains by taking a job at a coroner's office, where she can secretly snack on the brains of corpses delivered there. Soon discovering that she absorbs the memories of those she feeds on, she finds new purpose by posing as a psychic and working with a detective to help solve their murders.

[It] is a relatively weak opening offer for iZombie, a series that needs a strong comeback after an "ambitious but frustrating" season. Go to Full Review

I never thought I'd be tearing up at zombies bonding with one another, but everyone from McIver to Kohli just do such a good job at playing their respective characters. Go to Full Review
Sadie Gennis Polygon 10/20/2021
With its off-kilter humor, high-stakes action, and perfect cast, iZombie is a kitchen-sink series with huge risks that (at least mostly) pay off. Go to Full Review
Linda Maleh Forbes 08/22/2019
What's beautiful about the way iZombie makes its political statements is that everything is so baked into the show's mythology, that it never feels ham-handed, but naturally fits into the world of the show. Go to Full Review

6/10
We're hoping for apocalyptic shenanigans with healthy doses of dark humour. But instead it's looking like we're going to get pedestrian cop-drama and some awkward relationship B-plot up until the very end, and that's a shame. Go to Full Review

Anyone hoping that Seattle's new leadership would help ease zombie-human relations on iZombie was out of luck during the show's fifth and final season premiere on Thursday. Go to Full Review

Arnost M 03/19/2024 And the ball dropped down, frankly speaking stoped watching after few parts as already season 4 was slide to horibleness See more 06/29/2021 Had some weak moments, and some cheap scares in the last episode, but the ending was good. See more 02/13/2021 An awesome example of how to wrap up a show with no dangling threads. Not to mention how to have your cake and eat brains too! See more 11/04/2020 A acceptably entertaining and enjoyable final season wraps things up nicely See more 10/26/2020 I thought this season brought the whole concept to a satisfactory, if rather predictable, end. There were a number of developments in the plot, most of which which you would see coming, but on the whole it was nicely wrapped up in the final scene. The main actors did a good job, with Rose McIver again showing the range of her talents in portraying so many different characters. David Anders was another good reason to watch, especially the interplay between his character Blaine and his sidekick Don E. There were many amusing moments running alongside the serious message of respect and care for others, and on the whole this was an enjoyable watch. Season Four, however, with Robert Knepper as Blaine's father and leader of his flock, was one of the highlights for me. See more steve d 08/02/2020 As much as I loved it, the show has become far too self serious and it is time for it to go. See more Read all reviews
