Barrymore is once more a force of nature whether she's leaping into attack mode or quipping it up with Olyphant. Their chemistry is explosive, and the writing on the series makes their bond feel as authentically intimate as it is hilarious and enthralling Go to Full Review Andrea Reiher AV Club 03/29/2019

Thanks to the writing and Barrymore and Olyphant's performances, Sheila and Joel's marriage has always been of the best on TV; the real-life problems they faced were given a fresh, comedic twist by this supernatural premise. Go to Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian 03/29/2019

Santa Clarita Diet remains a gorgeously flavourful one. Fill up. Go to Full Review Hannah Lynn Pittsburgh City Paper 10/08/2019
The plot is not built for longevity, but it was fun while it lasted. Go to Full Review Noah Berlatsky NBC News THINK 08/29/2019
Discussions of diversity focus, rightly, on providing more visibility and more interesting role for marginalized people. But "Santa Clarita Diet" shows how eviscerating those old stereotypes allows everyone, of every gender, to rise anew. Go to Full Review Jak-Luke Sharp Film Inquiry 06/06/2019
Season Three is in a wonderful place after the events that unfold. It may not seem that way at first but we're treated to what could potentially be a fitting finale of sorts, but also if given the chance, a brilliant set-up for a potential fourth season. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Chris C. @Corliss15 Mar 4 Would love to see this revived, although its wishful thinking. Was a fun series overall. See more Andrii K @RT22405628 Mar 18 Have no idea why Netflix decided to cancel this amazing and funny show. Instead investing money into some average shows! See more Pat B @RT67592582 01/06/2025 I really liked this show, at first, but the writing lost some of its way by S3. I was disappointed, though, that the show didn't continue as I felt like they could have re-found their mojo. After all, most diets result in a yo-yo. See more Embrya A @RT96929493 12/03/2024 I'm sad that there were only 3 seasons of this show. I found it hilarious and absolutely entertaining. I hope they complete it but I doubt it. Still a great show. See more ShadowLynx T @Shadow_lynx13 06/14/2024 Waited till I finished it all before review. I loved this show. The characters and story was so refreshing. It had so much going for it. The way it ended and finding out it was canceled. Just a travesty. There was so much more great story to tell. Please Drew and Timothy find a way to bring it back, to at least give it a more fitting ending. Not a cliff hanger. I would of loved to see Joel and Sheila handle and deal with what happened in the end. Sorry I won't give any spoilers. But it would of been even more comical and bring the family even closer. See more Helen L @RT72454312 02/13/2024 Can't believe they've shelved it. A original plot enjoyable to watch. See more Read all reviews
