Santa Clarita Diet

This is an amazingly hilarious show!! Very upset it's being cancelled. Makes me want to cancel Netflix subscription

Another quality show cancelled by short sighted executives, such a shame

Joel (Timothy Olyphant) and Sheila Hammond (Drew Barrymore) are a suburban real estate agent couple in Santa Clarita, California with teenage daughter Abby (Liv Hewson). They are keeping up with the Joneses until Sheila turns into a zombie and starts eating the Joneses. Neighbor Eric Bemis (Skyler Gisondo) has a crush on Abby and is full of zombie knowledge. There are clams, spider-balls, and Serbians.

I really like this show and its sarcastic sense of humor. I love this family. I love the characters. Olyphant and Barrymore have an enjoyable chemistry. I like the zombie concept and its ridiculous side. It's a fun show. Netflix cancelled after three seasons. We will never know if this was popular but it is good.

My first thought when watching this show was that it was a combination of DEXTER, THE WALKING DEAD, and DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. The first episodes were good, but I couldn't really imagine how it would sustain. Then the plot twists came, and it just got better and better.

Some of the bit are so gross they are hilarious. I'm laughing even though I can barely look. But it's comedy we need these days.

Great cast for a funny show that doesn't take itself too seriously, but simply provides clever get-away-from-it-all content.

I really hope the show continues. Great job.

I read the crap one star review and felt compelled to write my own simply because it could not be more wrong.

Note to reviewers: actually watch the whole show. Clearly that reviewer watched one or two episodes although I suspect even less than that.

Comparatively the first few episodes are not as good as those that follow but I think that is because they are really setting up the story and establishing the characters.

There are so many funny moments which mostly arise from situations going from bad to worse. I found the show quite compelling and very entertaining. YMMV.

No way is this show one star. No way.
