20 Best Netflix Original Shows
14. Santa Clarita Diet
Netflix has a slight problem with cancelling its best shows before their time - a fact that will become more apparent as this list continues - but few cancellations have been as undeserved as the gleefully madcap horror-comedy Santa Clarita Diet.
In two of their most engaging and hilarious roles, Timothy Olyphant and Drew Barrymore star as Joel and Sheila Hammond, successful real estate agents whose lives are thrown into hilarious turmoil when Sheila starts craving human flesh and Joel races to find a cure for her condition.
Santa Clarita Diet is one of the most cynical and wonderfully sarcastic comedies you're ever likely to see, thanks primarily to Olyphant's deadpan comedic chops and Barrymore's insane murderous impulses.
Their story is bursting (literally) with gore and features an impressive volume of quotable one-liners, and the fact that things were cancelled just as the show hit its most maddening cliffhanger will anger fans for years to come. That doesn't mean you can't sit back and enjoy the rest of the journey, mind.
