iZombie: The CW (A Compilation of My Thoughts)

A show about a zombie who is trying to find a cure in one of the most unique ways possible. I find this show amusing because it takes a modern and humorous take on the whole gory zombie trend. Liv Moore, a human-turned-zombie who has had to uproot her life, become a medical examiner/coroner, and eat the brains of dead people in order to solve police cases. She also has to break up with her fiance, due to the whole being dead thing. The whole show is very quirky, in the sense that there is indeed a cure for the zombification process. Liv discovered that the Utopium (a drug that got laced with something else and created a whole boat-load of zombies) can be cured with more Utopium. The show has an underlying premise of Liv, Ravi (Liv's partner M.E.), and Major (the fiance), all searching for more Utopium in order create the cure.
 iZombie is also very amusing due to the fact that Liv takes on the personality of the brains she eats. She has these visions that help her learn the true murderer of the victim's brain whom she is eating. People end up thinking that Liv has some sort of unstable mental health resulting in her overall personality changing very frequently. This all changes once pretty much everyone in her personal life finds out that she is a zombie. \
There isn't really one specific reason why I love iZombie. Sure, it has comic book elements, zombies, some good looking people, lots of humor, lots of actions, you get the point. But what I can say is that it is worth watching even though it may not be the most high quality TV show.
