But every brain she eats, she also inherits their memories. Now she uses her abilities to solve their deaths with help from the Medical examiner and a police detective.

Likes :  This series is not just a by product from a popular culture of horror film zombie genre this is actual based off the popular comic book called I zombie as show below. 



This pilot episode has promise but weather this series could last more than 1 season time will tell as ive only seen the pilot episode which was to bad, the plot is pretty simple to follow A medical resident turns into a zombie after a party gone wrong one night.
There isn't any major stars in this series looks like news face's apart from Rose McIver (star of The Lovely Bones ) who plays the main character pretty well as a zombie, she a cold but strange personality to the character which is cool, Rahul Kohli try to bring a comedic side but sometime feels flat on the jokes really playing  Dr. Ravi Chakrabarti.
The plot is of her life which gets kind of turned up side down & she has no choice but to quit her work & starts to work in a morgue and eat the brains from murder victims, this is where this series taken on a different theme which works as it not just a zombie show it more of a zombie heroin zombie show as she able to gain memories & insight into the victims deaths that will helps to solve the murders while trying to hide what she is.
 So far the first episode shows promise although lacking in humor at the moment it feels very dull & bleak but try to be a little comical & light hearted which make it OK but not brilliant as its lacking in a few thing's to get you hooked, it kind of like a mellow drama at the moment but hopefully the series will pick up in later episode's & become a enjoyable series to watch. So far i like what im seeing this could be a good series to get into if your a zombie fan with a difference.

Dislikes :  The only problem i see is this show is going to be compared with a show called Tru Calling that Eliza Dushku did not in a zombe way but with the psychic powers i feel this might end up with the same concept so hopefully they would do something different from this concept, the only other complaint is that zombie don't sleep,she was see sleeping, if they want to keep this show looking real that need to change.

Overall : Great first start, it got potential, needs to be a bit more comical in place but not a bad start to a new series. 

Rating:  4.3 out of 5 for entertainment / 7.3 out of 10 for concept
