Santa Clarita Diet

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.

I just watched Santa Clarita Diet with my brother and it had us both laughing out loud. It was freaking hilarious. It stars Timothy Olyphant and Drew Barrymore as Joel and Shiela, married realtors who live in Santa Clarita raising their teenage daughter. Shiela wakes up one dead feeling strange and throws up. She also has no heartbeat. She's a zombie. Not like the ones you usually see in movies or shows, she looks and feels as good as she ever has. The problem is that she has to eat people to survive though. So they try to find the worst kind of people to kill for Shiela to eat. What follows is a lot of funny and sometimes dark moments.

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.

For anyone who's followed the show for the past 3 seasons, I do not need to even explain why this show is way too good to be cancelled at this point. Meanwhile, other shows with not even half the talent and script continue on air. I hope this decision gets reconsidered, the show and it's cast as well as fans deserve better than this. I am thouroughly dissapointed.

I've been wanting to watch Santa Clarita Diet since season one first came out in 2017 but kept putting it off because there was always something else I wanted to watch more. Well, I finally got around to watching it and it was great. I'm actually mad at myself for putting it off until now. I had no idea it was going to be so funny. Timothy Olyphant and Drew Barrymore are both terrific in this. Especially Olyphant. Justified is one of my all time favorite tv shows so I'm a big fan of his but I had no idea he could be as funny as he was in this. I knew he could be funny but not like this. The teenage neighbor, Eric (Skyler Gisondo), is also hilarious in this. Every character on this show is so well written. It took a few episodes before it finally found itself but once it did it was great. At only 30min episodes it's an easy binge. This is just a flat out fun show.
