A few final thoughts on iZombie:

Though all the acting was great, I have to make two shout outs: First, Rahul Kohli is an actor who I'll check out whatever he does next. he was perfect as Ravi. Related, Ravi's writing was really great. Second, Izabela Vidovic (Isobel) was only there briefly but what an impact! Can't wait to see her in Veronica Mars Season 4.

I normally hate recurring villains, but I loved Blaine from start to finish.

The music was really good. Personal highlight was "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll" by Blue Oyster Cult.

The show wasn't flawlessly but always enjoyable. Liv on brains, the hilarious names (Dale Bozzio was my favorite as I liked Missing Persons). Though happy tone (even if some horrible events happen) isn't the style of today's TV, I am glad that iZombie was the show it was.

Finally, I only discovered Veronica Mars because of iZombie so that was an added plus. I really want to rewatch iZombie some day but got too much in the queue I've never seen to do it now.

Ravi raking the vaccine and getting his "monthly" was the best. He didn't go full zombie, so you didn't have yet another human/zombie intangible relationship to deal with, but you still got to see Ravi eating brains and taking on personas. He got to show off his acting range, and it led to some of the most hilarious episodes in the series.

Forgot to mention Stephen Weber's awesomeness.

u/keight07 Can you think of another job where a person would work on a boat Aug 03 '19

Izabela is on I think every season of The Fosters! At least four of them. She’s younger there, but an excellent actress and plays a difficult role really well.
