With iZombie entering its fifth and final season next year, the CW series has one last chance to resolve a burning mystery: Whatever happened to Liv’s mother and brother?

When viewers last saw the pair (played by Molly Hagan and Nick Purcha) in the Season 2 premiere, Liv declined to donate her blood to little bro Evan on account of her being undead and all — not that her family was aware of why she was refusing to help. But since then, the existence of zombies has become public knowledge, so surely Evan and his mom Eva must now know the truth about Liv’s secret,...

Former NBA Champ Rick Fox Guest Stars — Liv (Rose McIver) unwittingly crosses paths with the most dangerous man in Seattle while investigating the murder of degenerate gambler Harry (guest star Ray Galletti). Detective Babineaux (Malcolm Goodwin) has a super-fan moment when he and Liv question NBA Hall of Famer Calvin Owens (guest star Rick Fox) at Harry’s funeral. Meanwhile, Blaine’s (David Anders) father (guest star Robert Knepper “Prison Break”) makes a huge discovery, and Ravi (Rahul Kohli) delivers some bad news. Lastly, Evan (guest star Nick Purcha) has a big secret to share with Liv, and Major (Robert Buckley) continues to struggle. John Kretchmer directed the episode written by Graham Norris (#207). iZOMBIE continues with more brainy adventures! From the executive producers of Veronica Mars, the series stars Rose McIver (Power Rangers R.P.M.) as Olivia “Liv” Moore, a medical resident on the fast track to a perfect life … until...

iZombie co-creators Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero-Wright have a very specific niche that they’ve filled over the years, one full of headstrong female protagonists, cathartic voice-overs, noir-style plots, and some enjoyably quippy dialogue that can steamroll anyone caught off-guard. Veronica Mars, and her movie, sculpted a uniquely odd tone and voice around a predictable setting – a high school. iZombie, more than anything, is Thomas and Ruggiero-Wright succumbing to Mars‘ hints of darkness in full form. But, like with Mars, it’s characters first, and on that level iZombie is fast approaching Thomas’ previous series – and could surpass it given time.

Based on a comic published by DC (under Vertigo), the season 2 premiere picks up a few months after Major’s (Robert Buckley) shootout at Meat Cute, where dastardly Blaine (David Anders) ran a sort-of Seamless for zombies, delivering brains to his pale-skinned companions under the guise of a charcuterie store.

iZombie series creator Rob Thomas revealed earlier today that the hit series was renewed for a second season. The CW Network hasn't confirmed how many episodes were ordered, or if iZombie Season 2 will debut in midseason once again, or if it will get a fall 2015 debut on The CW. The series debuted on March 17, with 2.34 million viewers tuning in for the premiere.

The show centers on Rose McIver's Olivia "Liv" Moore, a rosy-cheeked, disciplined, over-achieving medical resident who had her life path completely mapped out... until the night she attended a party that unexpectedly turned into a zombie feeding frenzy. As one of the newly undead, Liv has devised a way to resist her baser urges to devour fresh human brains - she's taken a job in the Seattle coroner's office. In this appropriately dead-end job, she can secretly snack on the brains of the many Jane and John...

The Hub Network's kid-friendly frightfest "Spooksville" is heading into its spine-tingling mid-season finale on December 21st so before it takes off for the year, we sat down with three of its young stars, Katie Douglas, Nick Purcha, and Keean Johnson, for a Q&A.

Katie Douglas - "Sally Wilcox"

Q: What kind of response have you gotten from the show so far?

A: On social networking Sally’s quite a hit with the younger girls I noticed. They like her wardrobe, and the show is actually number two on the Hub Network, which is absolutely amazing.

Q: So tell me a little bit about what you thought when you first heard about the show, about doing something scary like this.

A: When I first heard about the audition, I read the description that it used to be a book so I looked everywhere for print copies, but I actually didn’t get to find it.
