default-featured-image

As we learned previously, “iZombie” is concluding its sophomore season with back-to-back episodes on Tuesday, April 12th; and now we have the synopses for those eps plus what’s happening on “The Vampire Diaries” and “The Originals” a few days later on the 15th.  “Supernatural” is airing a rerun that week so there’s no update on the Winchesters at this point.

Of special note is the guest star for “iZombie” Episode 2.19, “Salivation Army”:  Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20!

“iZombie” Episode 2.18 – “Dead Beat” (4/12/16; 8:00-9:00 pm)

Detective Babineaux (Malcolm Goodwin) and Dale Bozzio (guest star Jessica Harmon) pursue a new lead on an old case. Meanwhile, when Major (Robert Buckley) finds himself in a world of trouble, sleazebag Brant Stone (guest star Ken Marino) comes to his rescue. Vaughn’s (guest star Steven Weber) evil side reaches a whole new level of mean. John Kretchmer directed the episode written by John Enbom.
