Review


Another excellent episode for iZombie. It seems the romance continues to build for everyone except for Major. Liv continues to discover more and more information regarding Blaine. Did Dr. Ravi get turned into a zombie, at the end of the episode? At least that would end one potentially annoying romance. Either way, we’re getting closer to the finale of season one and this episode pushed us a little bit closer. For that, a 7 out of 10 is deserved.
