iZombie: The Complete First Season [Blu-ray]

iResisted. But finally, iSurrendered. Since it was recently announced that iZombie has been renewed for a 3rd season, can one be blamed for tuning in to find out what all the fuss is about? While I never miss an episode of The Walking Dead, I'm nonetheless far from a zombie connoisseur (I love vampires, and zombies are to vampires what canned tuna is to freshly caught Alaska salmon). No matter. iZombie is arguably pleasurable for non-aficionados. Caveat: I'm biased since Rose McIver (who portrays the protagonist, Liv) is my new crush. But if you have eyes for men instead, then you get at least FIVE for the price of one: Malcolm Goodwin, Robert Buckley, Rahul Kohli, King Arthur... and of course David Anders, who always does well in playing the villain. Wait, King Arthur? Yes, because I can't see actor Bradley James as anything else after 5 seasons of  Merlin .As is standard in 21st century television, there's a developing story arc beyond the murder of the week (oh, forgot to mention: iZombie is basically a police procedural). When did supernatural cop shows become a thing, anyway? I think it may have been with  Forever Knight , which is today tiresome but was well ahead of its time in 1992. Rather than flashbacks to various centuries à la Forever Knight, the gimmick of iZombie (which apparently is carried over from the comic book) is that Liv inherits memories of the dead whose brains she eats. As you can imagine, this will lead to almost limitless possibilities, but what I find most appealing is that Liv also temporarily inherits personality traits. Talk about walking a mile in someone's shoes...Yeah, I'm not so sure we really needed another police procedural, but there's loads of humor in iZombie, and who doesn't need more laughs in life? Reminds me a little of Buffy, but the hero of iZombie is using her brains [no pun intended] rather than her slaying abilities to fight evil. The humor plus Rose McIver will keep me coming back: if that makes me shallow, then so be it.

Veronica Mars was one of my all time favourite show, since it's created by the same guy Rob Thomas I knew I was going to like it and checked it out. It did not disappoint. It's funny, very different with a great array of actors. I really like that 'most' of these actors havn't been in any thing big, the only actor I know that has been in a lot of things and always plays the evil/bad guy is David Anders. He is amazing in everything he is in. I first saw him make his big debut in Alias as Sark, he then went on to play one of the main villains in season 2 of Heroes and has popped up in Vampire Diaries and other shows. He plays the Zombie who turns our main character Rose McIver. Rose is great in this show, she's weird, awkward, funny, but it also trying really hard to do good (and not kill people for a living for their brains, unlike David Anders character). Season 1 starts off slowish, but picks off towards the end. Another stand out is Bradley James, now rocking black hair and great abs :P - you'll know him from the British show Merlin, he played Arthur. I must be honest I did enjoy this show. but it in no way compares to Veronica Mars. This show is more light-hearted and unfortunately is as funny. But it's getting there, I am looking forward to season 2, because where this season leaves viewers is going to make you hungry for more!!

I'm not a big zombie fan.I've never, for example, seen an episode of "The Walking Dead" and, while I do own the "Resident Evil" series, I don't watch zombie movies very often. I've read a few good zombie novels over the years, but generally I avoid them because too many of them follow a template. Rare authors like Ann Christy and Ian D. Moore write zombie fiction from a different perspective that's refreshing but writers like them are few and far between.That said, I took a chance and bought the first season of "IZombie" because it looked intriguing and I was not disappointed. A unique heroine, strong female characters, drama (even a little melodrama) and humor make this series a delight to watch.Part of what makes it fun to watch is the fact that it combines some of the best elements of "Veronica Mars" and "Pushing Daisies" with fresh storytelling. The sets are simple - a good thing because they do not distract from either the dialogue or the action - and the cinematography is professional. The make-up is not over the top and while there are some very violent scenes they are not gratuitous.The verdict: Really good television.

Great show. I love the show. Came in great condition and would be a great gift for yourself or someone else.

iZombie is one of those shows that you really have to wonder why it isn't given more attention. Like the fact that until very recently it was only available on DVD, a nearly defunct format, for instance.The show really is wonderful, with vibrant imaginings of an alternative to the zombie apocalypse, from drug dealers turned brain dealers to fake psychics this show really proves it can be fun. It's almost a pity that it's not a part of the Berlantiverse alongside Flash and Arrow.

I always fear that DVDS will arrive damaged or messed up after I open it. Then have to deal with “will they replace it without all the drama?” Thankfully that wasn’t the case and enjoyed season one.

This show is one of the best and funniest shows out there. I like the dynamic make of the characters. (Rose McIver) plays the character Liv Moore a young lady who was turned into a zombie after a party at the lake. She is a medical examiner and helps the local police solve crimes. You see when she devours parts of the deceased brains she takes on the dead persons characteristics and memories. make for a good time to watch.

I love izombie season one is great wish it was still running I miss liv the gang

LOVE this series. Already into season 2. Just ended April 2016. Keep an eye out for the DVD. Considering the American TV shows shown on Sky and Freeview, don't know why no-one had picked on this I just don't don't get. If you liked Buffy The Vampire Slayer, this is right up your groove.

The product did not list what region it was and as such I am unable to watch it. I do enjoy the show, but the product fails its basic purpose - working!

(Merci de me lire en français) J'ai commandé ce dvd au canada,n'étant pas encore disponible en france.Je suis un ammateur de "the walking dead".Là ,je ne savais pas trop à quoi m'attendre.Mais les commentaires des personnes ayant vus la série sur le net,était tous tres bons.Alors j'ai commandé.Et je ne regrette pasl'achat.C'est une tres bonne série.Rien à voire avec la violence de séries tel que "the walking dead".Il sagit de l'histoire d'une chirurgienne qui veut décompresser pour une soirée.Car elle travaille trop et est surnommée.Elle se rend à une fète,une party,sur un lac.Tout le monde picole s'amuse ,se laisse meme aller à prendre une nouvelle drogue.Une drogue qui transforme les fetards en zombies.Tout dégenere tres vite,notre héroine ,de la série, (Liv Moore) se fait griffer par un zombie et tombe par dessus le bateau.On la retrouvera sur la berge du lac..Morte.Puis réssucite.De là elle doit dire adieux à ses études de medecines,adieux à son fiancé,puisque son physique a changé,mais surtout son gout pour la nuriture,particulierement pour les cerveaux.Elle à besoin de cerveaux pour rester en vie,et se fait donc embaucher en tant qu'aide de medecin légiste dans une morgue.Son patron va la démasquer,mais l'aider.Et grace à des visions qu'elle perçois à chaque fois qu'elle mange un cerveau d'une personne ,tres souvent,assassinnée,elle va bientot devoir aider un inspecteur à résoudre certains meurtres.Voilà pour les grandes lignes de la série.Il y a de l'intrigue,de l'humour.Beaucoup moins sombre que les séries actuelles de "Z".Pour ceux qui connaissent "Dead Like Me" eh bien c'est dans le meme ton.Sauf qu'ici l'on ne traite pas de la mort en soit.Mais de la vie et de la survie de quelques zombies.C'est marant,c'est bien réalisé,les acteurs sont bons.Surtout l'actrice principale.Et à propos du coffret,il était donné en anglais.Mais il est également sous titré en anglais/ espagnol / français.Il n'y a que les scenes coupées et les suppléments qui ne sont pas traduits.

is one of my fav shows , Watch daily on Netflix but never know if its going to be remove , I want to have my own just in case So happy with this , Haven't yet play any of the dvd but i will update , I would say by how new an good they look i think all will be fine ! but will see soon . thanks again guys

For anyone in love with the "Zombie" genre, this series gives the viewer another twist that hasn't been done before. The main star is a delight, with several co-actors who really embrace their parts extremely well. The viewer has top get used to seeing the eating of brains on a regular basis, but it is an overall great series. Looking forward to Season 2 with relish...and maybe some brains!
