iZombie
Olivia Moore, surnommée Liv, une étudiante transformée en zombie lors d'une soirée qui a très mal tourné, travaille en tant que médecin légiste afin de pouvoir profiter du festin que représentent pour elle les cervelles des défunts. A chaque bouchée, elle hérite des souvenirs de la personne. Cherchant désespérément un sens à sa vie, elle se rend compte qu'avec l'aide du détective Clive Babinaux, elle peut résoudre les affaires de meurtres et calmer ainsi les voix qui la tourmentent dans sa tête...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (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.
