The series is back for its fifth (and I think final) season. Starts up again Thursday May 2 I’m looking forward to it. Brian ---

Yes, it’s the final season. I was not a fan of last season, actually. I thought the first three seasons were better, but I kind of hated Logan(from Veronica Mars) on this show. Uh, he died on the show, right? I have little memory of how the season played out. ---

Last season had some potential to do some hard-hitting political satire what with, you know, there being a wall around Seattle and refugees crossing it in both directions. They did the satire a bit without ever reaching “hard-hitting”. Then the show degenerated into…something, I don’t know what. ---

So, do we think they find a way to cure all of the zombies by the end of the season? I mean, that is the kind of bomb you can go ahead and drop once you’ve decided that the show’s coming to an end. I think that Liv deserves to rejoin the land of the fully living, but I can also see her deciding to stay a zombie because she really feels useful using her visions to help solve crimes. Either way, I can’t wait to see what new brain recipes she comes up with! ---

As the situation in Seattle gets more dire, the circumstances our protagonists find themselves in get more ridiculous. That three-way dance montage was one of the greatest things on television I’ve ever seen. Who knew that Clive would be such a good dancer? ---

Here we are, just a handful of episodes from the end of the line. It’s been a pretty good season, although the grimness of life in the walled city of Seattle is starting to wear on me. If this weren’t the last season, I would want it to be the last season before that was resolved. I’m glad to see that they decided to remember Liv’s family. Not that I found them especially absorbing so much as I dislike characters disappearing without any explanation in general. And I absolutely cringe every time they do anything with that zombie comedy show-within-a-show, so I definitely hope that’s been put to bed for good.
