iZombie - anyone else planning to watch?

It’s Seattle, I’m sure they blend in very easily ;).

Blaine made all those zombies, probably, it may be revealed later, even King Arthur.

Glad that Liv has a potential boyfriend,and things with Major are improving.
The boss being a zombie was out of left field (I knew when he was clipping his nails)

Guess Rob Thomas is following Whedon and bringing back folks. No complaints if we get more VM folks.

I’m really enjoying this show. The characters are just fun to be around, and the overall Zombie plot is moving forward at a reasonable pace rather than just hanging around forever Lost-style.

It’s been renewed for a second season!! Woohoo!

Really been enjoying this show - btwn this, Jane the Virgin, Flash… the CW is really hitting stuff out of the park with its new shows this season!

Agreed, I’m really enjoying all of the CW shows I watch - iZombie, Arrow, Flash.

What I’m not enjoying is sitting through iZombie and Flash and seeing the exact same stupid Verizon commercial ten times (I watch online). C’mon, I know there are several different ads in this campaign. Can’t we … mix them up a little? Thank Og the special they’re advertising is over on Sunday.

I’m so spoiled by DVR and 30sec skip. I hate hate HATE so many commercials these days.

And pound for pound, I think I’ve watched more of CW’s output than any other network, they might not get big ratings but they always seem to have a hell of a lot of stuff that interests me.

Looking at the police blotter, Major’s last name is Lillywhite? Wha? Is that even a real last name?

I’ve never read the comics, but I’ll say this, whoever does the makeup on this show is doing an astounding job of making some of the actors look like they came straight out of a Mike Allred drawing. He’s not my personal cup of tea, but that’s quite a feat to be able to take his style and apply it to real people.

Yeah, I just noticed that in the latest episode, and I was all, “What, really?”

I’ll admit that I’ve never read the comic.

There’s a British auto writer with that surname.

He’s such a major lilywhite ;). Though my favorite name in the show is probably Clive Babinaux, which is a fairly interesting name for an African-American male of his age to have.

And apparently Blaine’s last name is DeBeers…

Doesn’t matter - the show is miles from the source material. Very, very little similarity at all really. This includes the circumstances of the main character who is utterly different and all supporting characters who have almost zero overlap with the comic. Barely spoilerish for the comic:

In the comic the protagonist works as a gravedigger to get her brains and her best buds are a blond ghost and a nerdy weredog.

I guess that’s the result of blind casting, but:

Wow, I didn’t realize that France had that much colonial presence in Africa!

It’s probably worth mentioning, as well, that many freed slaves allegedly adopted the surnames of their former masters, if they had been treated well. And with New Orleans being a center of the slave trade, and having major French influence, a black man with a French name shouldn’t be too surprising.

It was one of the big two African colonial powers with Great Britain. Everybody else by comparison were bit players ( though in terms of sheer acreage Belgium and Portugal’s bits were pretty big in of themselves ).

I was actually referring more to his first name. I don’t think I’ve ever met a black guy named “Clive” (or heck, anyone other than an English decendent male).

I enjoyed this episode a lot… although the rat bite being just a fakeout is a bit cheap.

Liv’s prettyboy boyfriend (Lowell?) had a really interesting and well-played arc, even if he did a very bad job of actually trying to kill Blaine.

I hope Liv bothered to note the IP address of the web site with the brain menu on it, seems like that could be a useful clue. Or alternatively, the license plate of the car with all the delivery brains.
Oh, and Wallace! Wallace! Wallace! (The actor who was the drone killer was Wallace from Veronica Mars.)

We call her boyfriend King Arthur.

I don’t get why someone hasn’t been sufficiently pissed at Blaine to take him out already.

Darn.
