The Review at the End of the Universe
“Zombie Bro” iZombie eases into its second season as Liv has to ingest the brains of a murdered frat boy to solve his murder. Viewers must be used to the formula by now as it has been front and centre for almost every episode. I’m still at the point where I’m enjoying the show but…
“Grumpy Old Liv” Readers of this website will know that iZombie was a show that I very quickly fell in love with last year. The writing was sharp and witty, the characters were great, the actors were equally great and it told a story that never stopped being compelling week to week. I was even…
“Blaine’s World” iZombie brings its first season to a conclusion as Liv finally takes the fight to Blaine…eventually. There was lots of tension going into this finale with Major captured by Blaine, the possibility of a zombie cure and Liv’s brother Evan being given a job within Blaine’s operation so it’s important to keep the…
“Dead Rat, Live Rat, Brown Rat, White Rat” iZombie season 1 has one more episode to go and everything is pretty much ready for what should be a really exciting finale next week. Sebastian is back after a week long hiatus and is killing people. Having Liv and Clive hunting a zombie that Liv is accidentally…
“Astroburger” With only 2 episode if the first season to go, iZombie deepens the main story in preparation for things to start coming to a head. The central figure to all of this at the moment is Major. Arguably he makes the plot of this episode and the season as a whole move forward due…
“Mr. Berserk” It’s hard to believe that iZombie is only 10 episodes in. All of the rich world building and character development makes me feel like I’ve been watching this show for years. Like Liv with brains I crave more whenever I’m finished with one. Last week was an important episode for Liv as she…
“Patriot Brains” iZombie carries on down the path to the inevitable confrontation between Liv and Brain but gives us plenty to chew on before we get there. Last week was a doozy in terms of cliffhanger endings. In a short space of time Liv learns that Blaine is responsible for the disappearing kids at the…
“Dead Air” iZombie still continues to impress after 8 really impressive episodes of solid character development and world building. Liv’s brain of choice this week is that of a radio talk show host who specialises in sex and relationship advice with a really aggressive twist. It’s the kind of trash that I wouldn’t be caught…
“Maternity Liv” iZombie passes into the second half of the first season with an episode that has Liv ingest some maternal instincts as she looks into the case of a murdered pregnant woman. Thankfully the baby is fine, the show hasn’t become that grim quite yet but Liv’s experience of taking on maternal instincts for…
“Virtual Reality Bites” iZombie continues to dazzle more and more with each episode. I can’t remember the last time I watched a show that was this much fun. This week Liv eats the brains of an introverted gamer who is also a pretty horrible internet troll. Kudos to the show for giving us a murder…
