I'm not a big fan of Veronica Mars. I watched the first few minutes of it once and was like, "bored now..." But it took off, and that's what I'm hoping will happen with iZombie - it hits all the right notes with current pop culture trends: 80's nostalgia, zombies, drama, zombies, whodunnits... did I mention zombies?
All the elements are there:
- The plucky zombie protagonist coming to terms with her situation and making the most of it
- Her boss - the Chief Medical Examiner, the enabler who covers for her as she helps herself to dead brains that she takes (after the examinations and notes are made, of course - she may be dead but dammit she still has her ethics)
- The detective who benefits from her work as a medical examiner in the morgue
- The dysfunctional family and social situation - her family and friends don't know she's a zombie, and can't understand why she left her fiance
Check out the recap after the jump and tell us what you think in the comments!
