I have been watching this show, Santa Clarita Diet on Netflix. It has been pretty funny. I don't laugh at many shows but this has a lot of really funny lines and an entertaining story. It is very well made too, unlike some major network sitcoms. Drew Barrymore is great in it as the lead and it is well cast overall.

I highly recommend it if your looking for something light and funny.

I've only seen the promo screen on NETFLIX and no thanks. Wife was so pissed she wanted to register a complaint with NETFLIX.

Yikes.

My wife loves it, and she hates the horror genre. This is a comedy, what's to complain about?

I realize it is supposed to be a comedy but theres nothing funny about that "diet". Pardon the pun, it is in bad taste. Granted I've not watched it, only seen the promo screen shot,.

You have to watch it to see. It actually is funny and it is presented so there is no mistaking that Netflix is spoofing on the whole thing. The title alone is indicative of that. I don't understand how anyone can be offended by it but, to each his own.

OK perhaps I missed something?

Spoilers alert.

It is about cannibalism. Right or wrong?

Watched the entire first season in one sitting. Was awesome. Characters were all perfect. Especially liked Timothy Olyphant and how he played his character, a complete 180 of the roles he usually portrays. For the most part at least. Good watch for sure.
