iZombie

Season 4

iZombie goes from mediocre to just plain bad in Season 4. After Zombie Seattle is turned into a walled off city Chase Graves becomes a de facto military governor and attempts to keep the peace between humans and zombies, and prevent the US military from attacking; meanwhile Liv smuggles in humans and turns them into zombies, leading to overcrowding and starvation (and she’s the “hero”). The show’s attempt to cast Liv as a hero fighting for human/zombie co-existence is total crap and makes no sense, and her turning people into zombies is a complete 180 for the character; who has been searching for a zombie cure since the beginning of the series. On the other hand, the subplot about Angus McDonough becoming the leader of a zombie religious cult is incredibly interesting and has a lot of potential, and Robert Knepper does an excellent job with the character; making him a captivating villain that’s dangerous and charismatic. But that never gets explored in much depth. Everything in Season 4 of iZombie is upside down, which is probably why the CW is making its next season its last.
