I don't buy it a second that Blaine suddenly wants his father in his life. That whole part of the story this season was hardly believable.
It all started with Angus extorting brains from Blaine.
Blaine's father is simply insane, that's partly Blaine's fault I'd say, yet he still is an abusive father to him.
Him riding on a horse out of that smoke looked pretty awesome, though. That was a very good shot.
Speaking of, his real death and the filming of it was somewhat comical in its exaggeration.

But what they wanted to achieve with these fade out shots I don't know. Mood killer.
Let's have a climax on this episode and season finale and ruin it with something like that.
Didn't know how to make this whole setup work without those shots, huh?

Here we proved again, dating Liv is a death sentence in more than just the zombie way.
Overall a very typical iZombie season finale.

But why does Liv someone need to eat the whole brain to be cured? The rat ate a tiny bit.
That's simply idiotic, yet again so arbitrarily limiting the cure, basically wasting the whole brain for nothing.
As if it couldn't help Ravi in creating a cure. He barely did anything with it as there were so many other shenanigans going on.

Major is still tainted as a character. Yes, he came around the last episodes but I still do not like him.
Oh, look, the sheeple need a new Führer and he gets Blaine into his boat as the first act and forgives him all his debts. Pfff..
Besides that, I am longing for the episode where Don E. is finally killed off.
Given Major's new position is he going to be the next antagonist, will he also die like any other previous boyfriend of Liv?
Or are they going to get together again, that's why he did not get killed of?
Well, we'll see.

That also bothered me quite a lot (though obviously not enough to find this episode to be superb). Particularly, as I mentioned in a previous episode, because, apparently, they found it to be more interesting to have Ravi teaching Isobel how to drive and going all paternal on her instead of getting around to understand how she's immune and how they could work on a cure based on that. Dumbing down characters is never fun. Overall, what you pointed out was a perfect example of the dip in quality this season clearly suffered.
