This is the start of an excellent vampire series.

Well, the beginning of it is excellent. I stooped reading around book 10, it had started to go downhill a little before that.

But the first books are absolutely worth reading.

The Anita Blake Vampire Hunter books also have zombies in them. Anita Blake has necromantic powers over the dead.

The first books in this series are good, but after a while, it transformed to boring erotic books.

Joel still loves Sheila and decides to do his best to help her with her new lifestyle.

Together they have to get Sheila something to eat and at the same time hide her affliction from everyone else.

But Sheila and Joel do not live alone. They also have a daughter, Abby.

Is Santa Clarita Diet good?

The Santa Clarita Diet is one of the better Netflix Original shows. It baffles me that it only got three seasons.

The Santa Clarita Diet has a perfect mix of comedy and horror if you want something funny and macabre. It's like a mix between Dexter, iZombie, and Desperate Housewives, only with more humoristic moments.

Why is Santa Clarita Diet recommended?

In the Santa Clarita Diet Sheila is also a zombie. She was more of an outstanding citizen before the change than what Angel was, and she does not have as easy access to food as Angel.

The Santa Clarita Diet is also more humorous than White Trash Zombie, but the humor has lots of fitting macabre elements to it.

If you like White Trash Zombie and want a similar TV-Show, then the Santa Clarita Diet is a good choice. It is slightly less similar than iZombie, but it is still a good fit and an excellent show.

Is The Walking Dead good?

The Walking Dead is an excellent series. It is strange how they can keep a zombie survival scenario going so strong for so many seasons.

Why is The Walking Dead recommended?

Both White Trash Zombie and The Walking Dead have zombies, action, and drama.

The Walking Dead is more on the post-apocalyptic side where the zombies are brainless and have taken over the world.

In White Trash Zombie it's the zombies that have to find a way to survive while in The Walking Dead its the humans who are struggling for survival.

Is iZombie good?

I like iZombie. The main character is witty and cool. Much better than your average CSI type of show.

Why is iZombie recommended?

iZombie is a perfect show for everyone that loves the White Trash Zombie books.

There are some differences like the iZombie, the main character was an A+ student before the turn for one. But there are also many similarities, both works at the morgue and they are both fully functional people with some strange eating habits.

Why: very similar
