There wasn't much attention lavished on the Netflix horror-comedy's recently dropped third season, which is odd for a show with two big-name stars. "Maybe Santa Clarita Diet is one of Netflix's stealth hits?" asks Daniel Fienberg. "Probably 'stealth' isn't what you aspire to, though, when you make a series featuring America's Sweetheart Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant, who probably doesn't get nearly the credit he deserves as one of the true heroes of our Peak TV era. Santa Clarita Diet isn't a stealth show. It isn't some quirky, auteur-driven indie meant to be cherished by a tiny, elitist audience of critics like me. Though sometimes even shows in that niche can become invisible."

What a shame this show doesn't get more attention. It's funny as well as a little dark. Both Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant are great as Shelia & Joel Hammond trying to figure out to live with the whole zombie issue.
