Santa Clarita Diet Renewed For Season 3

Santa Clarita Diet fans, get ready to sink your teeth into another season of the bloody comedy series. 

Netflix announced on Tuesday that Santa Clarita Diet will get a third season. The streaming site broke the news in a video posted to the show's official Facebook page. Check it out below.

Created by Victor Fresco (Better Off Ted), Santa Clarita Diet stars Drew Barrymore and Timmy Olyphant star as Sheila and Joel Hammond, a married couple whose average lives of selling real estate and cozying up on the couch at the end of a long week change radically when Sheila transforms into a functional zombie, craving human flesh with a fierceness. Together, the Hammonds journey across California with their teenage daughter Abby, played by Liv Hewson, to find enough flesh to satisfy Sheila's hunger and, more importantly, discover a cure for her affliction. 

News of a season renewal comes shortly after the series' second season premiered on March 23. The writers have already begun crafting stories and scripts for season 3, just as they had done for season 2 while season 1 was still fresh for streaming. Santa Clarita Diet's entire main cast, which also includes Skyler Gisondo as Eric Bemis, will return for season 3. 

The 10-episode third season of Santa Clarita Diet is scheduled to hit Netflix sometime in 2019.
