Santa Clarita Diet, the Netflix dark comedy featuringDrew Barrymoreas a cannibalistic zombie, is back for an all-new flesh-eating season. The show focuses on a suburban couple dealing with zombie-like virus, in humorous ways. Watch the blood-soakedSanta Clarita Dietseason 2 trailer below.

Is it possible Netflix hastoo manyoriginal shows? We’ve reported in the past that Netflix has a plan to crank up700 originalshows and movies this year alone. While that may be great in theory, I do wonder if some titles will get lost in the shuffle. Case in point: I feel like a comedy series where Drew Barrymore plays a cannibal zombieshouldseem like a bigger deal. Yet I don’t remember much buzz surroundingSanta Clarita Dietwhen it debuted last year. No matter – the show must have done well enough to warrant a second season, which brings us to this trailer. Barrymore andTimothy Olyphantare back as a suburban couple dealing with the fact that a virus has turned Barrymore into a flesh-eating ghoul. The season 2 trailer promises more plasma-covered comedy.

This is a fun trailer, and I’m 100% certain this is the first zombie-related story that makes use of Hootie & the Blowfish’s “Only Wanna Be with You”, so it has that going for it. Still, I feel like there should bemore hypeabout this! It’s a show about Drew Barrymoreeating people! That’s kind of wild! The little girl fromE.T.is all grown-up and devouring human hearts! Why aren’t we all talking about this just a little bit more? I really do think the constant barrage of Netflix originals is causing shows like this to get overlooked, and that’s a shame.
