Medical student Liv Moore gets invited in a party that turns into a macabre zombie arena. She wakes up from the dead and becomes a zombie. She must eat human brains to maintain her humanity, so she goes to work in the coroner's office to access them. Eating a brain gives her that person's traits and memories, so she helps Detective Clive Babineaux solve the murder as a psychic.

iZombie Ratings & Reviews
- Danny Potter-JonesAugust 24, 2025One of my favourite TV shows ever. The actress is amazing at playing this character having to change personalities a lot makes it funny and entertaining. Highly recommend.
- CallumDecember 11, 2024⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (out of 5) iZombie – Brains, banter, and the sweetest apocalypse you’ll ever see. “iZombie” flips the zombie genre on its rotting head and gives it a heart — or at least a brain or two. This isn’t your grim, grey apocalypse. It’s the anti-horror of undead storytelling: bright, funny, emotional, and bursting with colour. Think Death in Paradise levels of cheerfulness but with a morgue and a snack habit. Liv Moore (played by New Zealand’s own Rose McIver, a proud Kiwi face in a major American show — something we don’t see often enough) becomes a zombie after an unfortunate accident. But instead of feasting on the living, she snacks on the dead — specifically their brains — gaining their memories and quirks. It’s a clever twist on the classic The Eye-style possession story, except here it makes perfect sense: memories come from the brain, after all. By eating her way through the evidence, Liv helps Detective Clive Babineaux solve murders while keeping her condition hidden. The world around her grows wonderfully chaotic: criminal zombies smuggling brains, moral dilemmas wrapped in humour, and yes — a few tender romances too. iZombie is, at its core, a sugar-sweet procedural dipped in dark chocolate — all the fun of Death in Paradise with a zombie twist. It’s colourful, heartfelt, clever, and endlessly watchable. Whether you like the zombie genre or not, this one’s essential viewing. And honestly, if this is the end of the world… it’s never looked so lively.
