Back, and Better Than Ever

"You really should tan and dye."

Welcome to iZombie season 3 recaps, which I hope to update more regularly.  But episode two is airing tonight and I'm just writing the season premiere, so don't get your hopes up.

Season Three in the adventures of our favorite zombie involves a new frenemy(?), Clive actually being let into the loop, and Roomie Peyton making bad decisions,

Crazy Brain. Kind of a Crap Shoot.

It's another strong but serious episode as Liv and friends count down towards their first season finale and we are treated to a Sixth Sense ending that I for one did not see coming.

Blargh

This was a somewhat unexpectedly heavy episode of our favorite chronicle of the undead. We've come a long way from Liv being a harmless kleptomaniac or waking up with mad kung fu skills.

Despite our (okay, my) best retcon efforts, it appears Lowell is really most sincerely dead. Sniff.  We open with Liv, very upset and somewhat blood-spattered, explaining to a detective (not Clive or Captain Secret Zombie) that Lowell was dead when she got there.  He's quite skeptical, but Captain Secret Zombie interrupts to say the case appears to be a suicide, so Liv is free to go.

The Two of You are Liable to Give Zombies a Bad Name

Another week with good long-term plot development and a killer last few minutes.

On the Fall Schedule!

The CW has announced their Fall schedule, and iZombie is on it.  So we won't have to wait until next spring for new adventures from Liv and friends.

It's a Zombie Thing - You Wouldn't Understand

You know how promos for tv shows frequently hype, "DON'T MISS THE LAST FIVE MINUTES"?  I didn't see any iZombie promos for this week, so I don't know if they did that, but they definitely wouldn't have been lying.  But let's start at the beginning.

You're Stuck With Me

Not really, because I know my three or so readers can give up on me any time, but good news!
