Santa Clarita Diet

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

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.

It's been a while since I really enjoyed a comedy/horror series, a genre that works well if done right. Santa Clara Diet is that kind of show, easy-to-watch, funny and refreshing, and we a decent amount of gore. Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant had a good chemistry between them, they looked like a lovely and amorous couple, with their issues obviously, in this case Drew Barrymore's hunger for fresh human meat. It's the kind of series you just binge watch, it took me only a week to watch all episodes. Good storytelling, interesting plots and characters, it had it all. The gore was well made which was also a bonus. Totally deserves its high ratings.

I saw this show advertised and thought it may be OK to fill a gap if there was nothing much else on to watch.

The first episode was good, so I watched the second, then the third, and couldn't stop watching it as each episode got better and better as the characters developed.

Each and every performance in this comedy is brilliant, from the most minor of supporting roles to the lead cast.

I really didn't have high expectations, but this comedy is HILARIOUS

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.
