Netflix cancels Santa Clarita Diet

Netflix has cancelled Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant-led zombie comedy series Santa Clarita Diet after three seasons. The streaming giant has opted to cancel the series from showrunner Victor Fresco. The decision comes as a bit of a surprise given the star power attached to the wacky comedy about a married couple in suburbia and the fact that the series is owned and produced in-house at Netflix, reports hollywoodreporter.com. While Netflix hadn’t previously announced that the show will be ending with season three — which launched on March 29 — promotional material for the latest batch of episodes hinted at a fatal decision.
