TV Talk - "iZombie"

iZombie - Based on a DC Comics Vertigo (Mature Readers) title from a few years ago, iZombie is the tale of a girl named Liv Moore (ironic name), who was attacked at a party and woke up as a zombie. She works at a morgue, which comes in handy because if she doesn't eat brains every so often she begins to deteriorate and turn into an actual zombie. If she eats brains she appears normal and can maintain a somewhat normal existence. She assists a local homicide cop on cases because he believes her to be psychic. What really happens is when she eats the brains of a corpse in the morgue she obtains some of that persons memories, feelings, and abilities, and has inside insights into their demise. This show is like a cross between Psyche  and Veronica Mars. A fun, light hearted show about a murder victim sustaining herself on other people's brains. I like it. The show was recently announced that it was picked up for a second season. That's great news! The comic series was also a lot of fun. In that version our heroine worked at a cemetery as a grave digger. The comics were different but equally well done. Fun stories by Chris Roberson and amazing artwork by Mike Allred. Both versions are worthy.
