What’s This TV Show About?
A CW horror dramedy, iZombie stars Rose McIver as zombie/medical examiner Liv Moore. The “rom-com-zom-dram” also stars Malcolm Goodwin, Rahul Kohli, Robert Buckley, David Anders, Aly Michalka, and Bryce Hodgson. When Liv eats the brains of the deceased, she temporarily inherits some traits from the person and gains insight into how he or she died. Pretending that she has psychic abilities, Liv then uses this knowledge to help the police solve crimes. In season five, Liv and crew are trying to maintain peace in the zombie state of New Seattle, with never a moment’s rest.
Season Five Ratings
The fifth season of iZombie averaged a 0.19 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 654,000 viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 23% and 13%, respectively. Learn how iZombie stacks up against the other CW TV shows.
On May 17, 2018, The CW announced iZombie would end with its fifth season. The last episode aired August 1, 2019. Will it return in some form some day? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Don’t spend any time wondering whether The CW will cancel or renew iZombie for season six. Shortly after it issued the season five renewal, the network announced that the fifth season would be the final installment of iZombie. I’ll still keep an eye on the ratings and update this page as the season progresses, so subscribe for free iZombie cancellation and renewal alerts.
