Looks like the cat’s finally out of the bag (or, is that brains out of the bag?). Either way, Liv’s finally discovered what Blaine’s up to. As our hero, she was always going to step in and do something about it, and after Blaine’s actions in this episode, that’s a call to action if ever there was one.

Who knew zombie dating could be so hard, huh? One minute you’re attracted to a girl named Liv, the next minute you’ve chomped down the brains of a recently deceased gay man and are no longer feeling it. While it put a pin in Liv and Lowell’s potential romance, it certainly allowed them a chance to develop a friendship and party on down together. (Does anyone say ‘party on down, anymore? They should.)

iZombie is such a fun show. There. I said it. I’ll probably say it several more times before the season is through. Sure, it’s still learning, but it’s learning fast and has really been building on the strong groundwork laid out in the pilot.

Liv continues to utilise zombification to her advantage as she investigates the death of an old friend. The iZombie world expands with the unveiling of other zombies at large, good and bad, and the growing threat of Blaine’s activities at the skate park.

iZombie continues to find its feet this week, demonstrating its diamond-in-the-rough elements with a decidedly mediocre case of the week, but absolutely superb turns from the subplots and supporting characters.

Tatiana Maslany has been highly praised for her impressive performance on Orphan Black as she mercurially and easily slips between characters. It’s (very, very) early days for iZombie, but it’s easy to see how the show could give Rose McIver a similar showcase in her acting range. Each new brain brings along brand new characteristics for Liv to tackle, essentially presenting us with a new Liv at least once a week.

Episode two of this infectious pop-confection sees it fall ably into the murder-of-the-week set-up for us in the pilot, only with the added twist of a second zombie on the scene. David Anders had a superb entrance as Blaine this week, rising eerily from a morgue table when Liv’s back is turned. It’s a nice comic moment yet effectively manages to suggest Blaine may not be the nice guy he’s pretending to be. Obviously, the flashes Liv had of Blaine attempting to rip a guy’s skull open may have tipped us off, but the skill of Anders’ performance is in convincing us to believe that maybe we were wrong. Maybe he really is trying to turn his life around.

Let’s be real here. Does the world really need another zombie TV story? Haven’t we reached zombie saturation point now? Can we really say zombies aren’t heading the way of the sparkly teen vampire? Well, no, actually. Despite the plethora of zombie media ravaging our screens at the moment it has all managed to stay decidedly male. Rob Thomas (creator of cult hit Veronica Mars) and Diane Ruggiero-Wright have decided to finally fill that girl-shaped void with iZombie, and it’s about time too.
