The previews for this new series that premiered on the CW last Tuesday, March 17, did not prepare me for this show. With a name like “iZombie,” it’s definitely expected for zombies to be present, but I assumed in a more “The Walking Dead” kind of way. Not even two minutes into the show and we have zombies!
Main character and talented medical student Liv gets invited to a party on a boat by a classmate, but a sudden zombie outbreak ruins the fun. Next thing she knows, Liv wakes up in a bright yellow body bag as a zombie. Suddenly, she breaks off her engagement with her fiancé and takes a job at the morgue, which is the perfect place for her to eat brains. However, once she eats the brains, Liv begins to have visions about how they died and begins to help the police solve murders. Liv helps the new cop on the force, Clive Babineaux, solve the murder of a call girl.
The premiere definitely kept my attention and seems like a cute, TV version of the movie “Warm Bodies.” It’s a must see!
