Jane Bowman (iZombie)

Jane Bowman (Jillian Bach) is the hidden villainess of "Dead Air", episode 1.08 of iZombie (airdate May 5, 2015). She was the producer of Sasha Arconi, a radio show host who specialized in relationships. After Sasha was unexpectedly killed during a show, Jane appeared distraught at her boss's untimely death. But in actuality, Jane had grown to hate Sasha and had been behind her death. 
After Sasha had discovered that Jane was sending out tapes to other stations without telling her, Sasha blackballed her from every West Coast studio, effectively destroying any chance Jane had of getting a solo career. Enraged, Jane went about killing Sasha by sabotaging her equipment, causing her to be electrocuted. The evil producer then went about framing assistant Kaley Taylor, who had been calling Sasha for the past several weeks under an alias threatening to kill her for sleeping with her boyfriend, for the murder by inserting an old commercial she voiced in the same Southern accent she used for the calls into the audio files requested by Liv and Clive. Jane's plan worked, as Liv and Clive soon after arrested Kaley. 
Jane's villainous reveal came when Liv and Clive interrogated Kaley, who revealed how Sasha had ruined Jane's career ambitions. They also uncovered Jane's manipulation regarding the audio files when they learned that the restaurant from Kaley's ad had closed a year prior, making it impossible that the ad would have been playing during one of Sasha's recent broadcasts. Liv and Clive went to arrest Jane, who was hosting Sasha's memorial broadcast to an unimpressed audience. When she saw Liv and Clive enter the studio and realized she was about to be arrested, Jane went into a furious rant against Sasha, calling her out on her selfish actions and habit for sleeping with other women's boyfriends/husbands before being handcuffed by Clive.

== Quotes ==
* "I'll leave you, our adoring public, with this: Sasha didn't care about our problems. Sasha cared about Sasha. During commercials, she'd laugh at the crazies who called in. She slept with our boyfriends and our husbands. And when I decided I wanted to live my dream of being in front of the mic instead of behind it, she destroyed my chances with every station manager in the West Coast. I was her biggest fan, and she killed my dreams. Well, I hope there's radio in hell, and I hope you're listening, Sasha." (Jane Bowman voicing her bitterness for Sasha Arconi, as well as revealing her motive for killing Sasha)
