Only with the hope of regaining some degree of proximity to Veronica Mars would I even consider playing this far outside my preferred genres to frolic with zombies. But for VM Creator Rob Thomas, I would. He wouldn’t lead me astray. He knows he would need to keep iZombie humorous, witty and keep the gore factor at a low to minimal level. In this understanding, we had an amicable relationship. I would dance with undead, he would not scare the bejesus out of me. However, at no point did we discuss not killing off a romantic lead. With the sizzling shipping success of Veronica and Logan I didn’t think such clarification was necessary. However, here is where we have come to our unfortunate impasse.
Rob Thomas, I wanted to support you but you gave me a zombie boyfriend with intrigue, charm, a British accent and even a Big Star t-shirt – and then, you took him away! You took him away, Rob Thomas! Sure, Liv still has Ravi, a friend and ally who describes himself as 'a tall doctor with fantastic hair and a British accent.’ And yes, of course, any gal would want Ravi as a BFF/coworker to confide in. But you just can’t take my zombie boyfriend away and think we’re going to be okay. I’ve seen the zombie love, Rob Thomas, and Major couldn’t be further from it. So here’s my suggestion, RT, at the start of season two, introduce some quickie reanimation storyline, bring back Lowell, and we'll be all good. M’kay?
