Up and coming TV

Loads of book-related TV news has come out this week, including the fact that NBC has green-lit a new adaptation of DC Comics' Hellblazer (to be called Constantine, like the 2005 Keanu Reeves movie), more info about the CW's upcoming take on the comic iZombie, and a positive review of Showtime's Penny Dreadful, which THR describes as a "very weird, enthralling, scary but mostly intriguing and entertaining start". As for me, I'll definitely check out all three shows, but my hopes are lowest for iZombie, despite my love for the showrunner (Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas). I just don't see how brain-eating is going to fit in with the CW's aesthetic. I mean, it might be great... or it might be like that time they had Paris Hilton guest-star on Veronica Mars.
