Netflix's New Comedy Starring Drew Barrymore Video Preview; TNT Hits the Library for a 4th Time

Take a trip to the lovely suburb of Santa Clarita. The all new featurette from the Netflix Original series Santa Clarita Diet, gives a peak inside the lives of the Hammonds - a mild mannered family on a collision course down a road of death and destruction. The featurette includes interviews with series stars Drew Barrymore ("Sheila Hammond"), Timothy Olyphant ("Joel Hammond") and Liv Hewson ("Abby Hammond") and showrunner Victor Fresco. In Santa Clarita Diet, Joel (Timothy Olyphant, Justified) and Sheila (Drew Barrymore, Blended) are husband and wife realtors leading vaguely discontented lives in the L.A. suburb of Santa Clarita with their teenaged daughter Abby (Liv Hewson), until Sheila goes through a dramatic change sending their lives down a road of death and destruction...but in a good way. Santa Clarita Diet stars Drew Barrymore as Sheila Hammond, Timothy Olyphant as Joel Hammond, Liv Hewson as Abby Hammond and Skylar Gisondo as Eric Bemis. Watch the featurette:

TNT has renewed its hit fantasy-adventure series The Librarians for a fourth season. The show's third season recently aired its finale on January 22, 2017 and is currently available on TNT On Demand and TNT's digital and mobile platforms. The fourth season is slated to begin later this year. The Librarians launched in late 2014 and joined TNT's The Last Ship as cable's Top 2 new series of the year. In 2015 and 2016, it ranked among basic cable's Top 20 original drama series with adults 18-49. The Librarians has reached 5.4 million viewers per episode in its third season, drawing an audience that's six years younger than the average for TNT originals. It also boasts a strong following in social media, with nearly half a million fans on Facebook.

Based on TNT's hit movie franchise, The Librarians centers on an ancient organization dedicated to protecting an unknowing world from the secret, magical reality hidden all around. Rebecca Romijn, Christian Kane, Lindy Booth and John Harlan Kim star in the series as protectors of the world's mystical treasures, with Emmy(R) winner John Larroquette as their reluctant caretaker. As well, reprising the role that helped originate the franchise in TNT's hit movie trilogy, Noah Wyle has recurred as Flynn Carsen, one of the longest surviving librarians in the series' mythology.
