The bombastic and deliciously entertaining Santa Clarita Diet has been renewed by Netflix for another season.
Season 3 will be made up of another 10 short episodes and will be released in 2019. Drew Barrymore, Timothy Olyphant, Liv Hewson, and Skyler Gisond will return as the main cast members.
For those of you who didn’t catch last season, the series revolves around a suburban family whose life gets turned upside down when wife and mother Sheila (Drew Barrymore) vomits an excessive amount and then wakes up a zombie. From then on, the series portrays how the family handle the big change and struggle to keep up appearances despite the fact Sheila and her husband now have to hunt and murder people so that she can eat.
Barrymore said to Variety about the series:
“I think the show is about a married a couple and a marriage that’s constantly getting challenged. And this husband and wife react to that. But I also love the balance. One moment you’re hearing the craziest thing you’ve ever said or heard and the next [it’s] where are our garden hoses and why are they getting stolen? Typical mundane suburban things. We’re also raising a teenage daughter, so there’s a domestic element. It’s all very human and suburban and relatable, and the stakes are crazy. But I think in this world, you need to go to this crazy place for it to be shocking.”
More updates as they arrive.
