iZombie continues to be the little show that could at The CW. The fan favorite had been renewed for Season 4 by the network.
iZombie was one of the few CW shows not to get an early renewal in January. The Warner Bros. Television drama has proved a reliable performer for the network. From veteran writer-exec producer Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars, Party Down), the zombie series is also one of several DC properties at the network (see: Arrow, The Flash, etc.) Held for a midseason return with an abbreviated 13-episode order, the Rose McIver starrer is so far averaging a 0.7 rating and 1.6 million viewers in season three. Thomas, meanwhile, is a valuable producer for WBTV and is also prepping a reboot of The Lost Boys for the younger-skewing network.
Based on characters created by Chris Roberson and Michael Allred, and published by DC Entertainment’s Vertigo, iZombie is from Spondoolie Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Rob Thomas, Diane Ruggiero-Wright, Danielle Stokdyk and Dan Etheridge. It stars Rose McIver, Malcolm Goodwin, Rahul Kohli, Robert Buckley, David Anders and Aly Michalka.
