If you’re worried about your gastrointestinal tract, are trying to lose weight, and also hunger for the flesh of the living, has Drew Barrymore got a diet for you. Netflix teased a new comedy starring Barrymore during the Golden Globes with an ad for Santa Clarita Diet that takes the form of a bubbly “I did it, and you can too!” testimonial. “After the first day, I knew this wasn’t like any other diet,” says Barrymore as she snacks from a bowl of viscera. “I satisfy all my cravings and eat whoever I want.”
In the series, Sheila (Barrymore) and Joel (Timothy Olyphant) are husband-and-wife realtors living a humdrum life with their teenage daughter in California—until Sheila “goes through a dramatic change,” which in this case seems to be code for “joins the undead and develops an appetite for human flesh.” The Santa Clarita diet: it’s a bit like Goop but for the zombie set. The show is created by Better Off Ted’s Victor Fresco.
Satisfy your own craving when it premieres on Feb. 3.
