Netflix is sticking to its Santa Clarita Diet

Fans of Santa Clarita Diet had a little cause for concern when Netflix didn’t immediately pick up the show for a second season when the first wrapped back in mid-February. After all, few outlets show much restraint in green-lighting more episodes when a show is even a modest hit these days, and stars Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant killed it on the first season of the pitch-black comedy. They play Sheila and Joel Hammond, a married couple of varying degrees of happiness. Sheila’s sudden taste for human flesh both strains and invigorates their relationship, and leads to all manner of blood-soaked hijinks.
