For the 4th consecutive year, I caught iZombie filming scenes for their season finale.... and for the first time ever, Robert Buckley was NOT on set for it (but a Robert was).

On this day, I caught them filming on a side street near Victory Square in downtown Vancouver. A lot of extras were playing the part of an angry moderately armed mob with bats, wood planks and more. At the time of watching it, I obviously had ZERO idea what was going on since this show is filming their entire season before even one episode has aired. Of course, seeing it now, I suspect one of two things was happening in the scene.

On set was Robert Knepper as Angus McDonough, sitting on top of a horse with his now trademark hammer in his hand. It seemed the new reverend was considering riding into the situation that those earlier mentioned mob members were running towards. David Anders, as Blaine Debeers was also there, and in the scene it seemed like he was trying to convince his father to not do it, and reminding him that it was him who made zombies happen, not god. A little while later, they shot scenes with a stunt double riding the horse at a decent pace up the street. The next day, they shot more scenes with the Reverend on the horse, in the Downtown Eastside. I missed that day unfortunately.

iZombie season 4 finale airs Monday night on The CW or on Netflix the next day.

For the 3rd consecutive year, I caught iZombie filming scenes for their season finale. For the 3rd consecutive year, it included Robert Buckley at the set. Its weird for a guy who probably is 3rd or 4th in screen time, I always catch up to him in the finale filming.

On this day, in early January, just after their winter break, the cast, and crew were in a snow covered Oppenheimer Park in the Downtown Eastside immediate across the street from where I used to live to film scenes for the season finale, directed by Dan Etheridge. Since episode 12 is titled "Looking For Mr Goodbrain Part I", I am going out on a limb here, assuming this will be "Part II" but I dont know that for sure. Of course, the prior times being the season 1 finale scene when he blows up Meat Cute Then last year when he, Rose, Rahul and Malcolm shot scenes at the Vancouver Art Gallery for the Major getting arrested and released scenes.

This time Robert, as Major Lilywhite was on set shooting a scene as a member of the Fillmore Graves team. He was in Oppenheimer Park handing out what seemed to be zombie rations to a horde of zombies that seem to be patiently waiting for their rations.

While that scene was shooting, I also was Bryce Hodgson as Don E. shooting a few feet away with scenes where he seemed to be running thru asking zombies there if they wanted to try samples of what looked like candies, but we all know whats in them obviously. In a different "I always seem to catch" scenario... I have seen Bryce twice in my life now. Once at this set, and once while he was shooting The Killing, (in fact I didnt even know his name yet when I wrote the post) literally 1/2 block from that location. Pretty random to catch someone filming in practically the same locale twice on 2 different shows several years apart.

After shooting those scenes, they then shot one more scene.... one that really makes you wonder what & where the show might go with season 4 since this is clearly the finale..... an angry mob of humans storms the Fillmore Graves vehicles armed with bats, pitchforks & anything else they can manage.... how does Fillmore Graves react to this??? Well, I cat tell you that.... because I didnt see it.

iZombie airs on Tuesday nights on The CW.
