What life’s too short to watch:Blame it on suburbia for taking cannibal zombie gore and making it feel blah. A large part of the problem is Barrymore herself who, at this point, is so awkward with comedy that she seems to be a parody of herself, a weak (and not uncruel) Drew Barrymore mimic. She never seems sure of her comedic pitch, and while the timing may occasionally be right, the tonality is entirely off. (If you are in the market for a genuinely fine zombie comedy, look up Braindead, a show so politically aware and sharply written that it was cancelled after one season.) This show is best left to those who love Drew Barrymore too much to notice its appalling mediocrity.
