Josh Zyber — Thu, 06 Apr 2017 15:00:43 +0000

Right on the heels of another famous zombie show ending its latest season, The CW has brought its very fun ‘iZombie’ back just in time to fill the void. That is in no way a coincidence. Season 2 ended with some major developments for the series. Liv’s cop partner, the frustratingly oblivious Clive Babineaux, finally...

This week’s Blu-ray releases are tinged with sadness. The most promising new title available reminds us of the recent loss of its talented young star. New Releases (Blu-ray) ‘Green Room‘ – Anton Yelchin was poised for great things. His breakout role in the ‘Star Trek’ franchise brought him a lot of exposure, and this indie...

‘iZombie’ 2.01 Recap: “You’re a Monster, Act Like One”

Josh Zyber — Fri, 09 Oct 2015 14:00:21 +0000

‘iZombie’, the CW network’s zombie crime-fighter series from ‘Veronica Mars’ creator Rob Thomas, had a bumpy first season that only started to come into focus towards the end. Even so, the show’s premise and characters were entertaining enough to keep me watching. Now that it’s back for a second season, has the series gotten past...

As far as new TV shows go, this fall has been pretty much a bust so far. This may be the worst pilot season in recent memory. Thankfully, we still have lots of returning favorites to watch instead. Which series are you happy to see come back? We voted last week for the new shows...

‘iZombie’ 1.13 Recap: “Live to the Max”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 13:00:11 +0000

I haven’t written about The CW’s ‘iZombie’ in a while, even though it was one of the past season’s more promising new series. Now that the show has aired its first season finale, let’s do a quick catch-up. The reason I stopped recapping the show regularly is that, in the early parts of the season,...

‘iZombie’ 1.03 Recap: “Two’s Company, Three’s a Horde”

Josh Zyber — Mon, 06 Apr 2015 16:00:01 +0000

‘iZombie’ is still stuck in crime procedural mode, which is kind of a bummer. However, the third episode has a lot of interesting stuff going on around and outside the latest case-of-the-week. In ‘The Exterminator’, Liv eats the brain of a hit-and-run victim, only to find out that he was a professional contract killer. As...

‘iZombie’ 1.02 Recap: “Welcome to Team Z”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 26 Mar 2015 13:00:16 +0000

The second episode of ‘iZombie’ has a lot of good things in it, and sets up new storylines that could be very interesting, but is also an exercise in frustration as we wait for the series to get over its growing pains. The episode is hilariously titled ‘Brother, Can You Spare a Brain?’. Liv, the...

‘iZombie’ Pilot Recap: “You Could Use Some Sun, Young Lady”

Josh Zyber — Wed, 18 Mar 2015 19:00:28 +0000

Just when you thought the market was already oversaturated with zombie movies and TV shows, Rob Thomas (the creator of ‘Veronica Mars’, not the musician) brings a new twist to the genre with ‘iZombie’. Before you ask, no, the title has nothing to do with Apple or iTunes. Thomas actually can’t take all the credit....
