  Netflix has just released the trailer for it's brand new series Santa Clarita Diet and it looks awesome!
  
  
  
  The series tells the story Sheila and Joel, a happy suburban couple who come to realise that Sheila is actually undead.
  Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant play Sheila and Joel who after a bout of zombification, have to deal with the problems that come with their new "lives".
  
  
  
  The couple try to keep up the appearance that all is normal when in reality Sheila is chowing down on human flesh left, right and centre. I don't want to give too much away but I can say one thing; Netflix certainly aren't afraid to show a bit of gore.

  Classic case of dont be fooled or put off by a somewhat surrealist title. I was just gonna let this pass me by but after reading a synopsis in the radio times, this actually sounds as though it could bbe something pretty special. I believe this is due to land early march..will be keeping an eye out for 'Santa Clarita diet'.

  Ok, i take it back. Apperas the info i had was off somewhat..this show actually arrived on Neflix today..so naturally i have already downloaded the first few episodes. You know how sometimes somethin new comes along tv wise and you just cant wait to tak your claws to it..well with this, even just 1 episode in, i cant critiscise it..the opening episode was actually pretty entertaining. Granted some of the secondary characters are a bit naff but the leads do a bang up job (especially Barrymore..appears she is having a lot of fun here). The humour see saw's between dry wit deadpan and then, BOOM, it goes full on gross out. I get the impression that the whole season is only 10 episodes long and with each episode only being 30 minutes long, this doesnt take long at all to get going. Am gonna keep running with 'Santa Clarita Diet'.

  This was one show ripe for a binge watch..and thats exactly what the fam and i did..watched the whole shebang over the course of a few days and for the most part it was a fantastic show that definatly p[oints towards future seasons. The show, i found, was kind of a game of 2 halves. The first half of the season was really strong, then it started to slip a bit while still remaining entertaining. Sadly the finale, for me, was a big ol let down but thats not to take away from the series as a whole. The leads remain fantastic throughout with the very keenly observed comedy throughout, its just a shame that it seems to run out of steam come the final episode of the season. Still recommend giving this a looksee though.

  It's no secret that a second series of 'Santa Clarita Diet' was on the cards (confirmed bleedin ages ago). Finally a release date (again on Netflix) has been released..and it's far sooner than you may think. The 2nd series arrives friday 23rd March, in what im guessing will be the whole season from the off. The first season was very good for the most part with only the occassional blip..roll on March 23rd.

  I tried to get into this show but I just couldn't stick with it. Gave it more than one go too just in case I wasn't in the right mood for it the first time around. I think ultimately I find Drew Barrymore and her schtick style of acting very irritating. It's so forced and samey to everything else she does that I am constantly distracted by it.
  
  I guess it could be a good show but she pulls me so far out of the world owing to her way that I'll never be able to get into it.

  If memory serves, FantasticMr, season 1 was, while a bit hit and miss, it did grow on me and actual managed a rare feat when it comes to zombie influenced comedy..it actually managed to be pretty darn funny on occassion. I will give the second season a looksee. I too find Drew Barrymore to be a bit hit and miss but, would have to say, she's hit the mark with me more times than missed.

  I try not to be too judgemental of a show based purely on a singular, opening episode (except in the case of the new David Boreanez show 'Seal Team'..what a god awful piece of crap that is) bu having watched the openingg episode to season 2 of this..it's not off to the strongest of starts. That said though, there are glimmers of promise. Despite only being a year or so ago since the 1st season aired, didn't quite realise how much i had forgotten about how the previous season finished up. For that reason, if possible before starting the 2nd season of this, id recommend rewatching the final episode of the 1st season. Entertaining enough but hardly groundbreaking (vaguely interesting plot twist come the episodes climax though).
