Check this before changing the order of cast billing.
While both may get equal credits, it does not change the fact that Olyphant's name appears above Barrymore's. And in accordance with
WP:TVCAST, this should also be reflected in this article.
I hope this clears up any misunderstandings, and prevents any future edit conflicts/wars.
[1] in the official description, Barrymore is listed first. She should at least be listed first in the character list, if not the infobox as well.

Per
WP:TVCAST, "the cast listing should be organized according to the series original broadcast credits, with new cast members being added to the end of the list". Note "original broadcast credits". That means as aired, and that means Olyphant first. --

Married couple Sheila and Joel are real estate agents in Santa Clarita, California. The couple's lives take a dark turn after Sheila goes through a transformation – becoming a zombie who feeds on human flesh.
The official Netflix trailer is

Season colours
For series with more than one season, season colours are based upon separate promotional content and/or home media release cover art that is specific to that season. For this series:
Season 1,
Season 2. -- AlexTW06:01, 24 March 2018 (UTC)reply
The original colors were based off the logo for the U.S promotional poster. The T.V. series was released from the U.S. as in a U.S. T.V. show, not an Australian T.V. show. I think it should followed the U.S. promotional poster.

@
Lbtocth: Can you link the U.S. promotional posters for both seasons? As far as I can tell, there is nothing in the ones that I linked that stated that they were Australian. Or are you saying that because I'm Australian, and you're assuming that they must be too? -- AlexTW08:29, 24 March 2018 (UTC)reply
Here we go! Here's the "U.S. promotional posters":
Season 1 from Netflix US Facebook,
Season 2 from the official Santa Clarita Diet US Twitter. Exactly the same as I linked previously. -- AlexTW09:06, 24 March 2018 (UTC)reply
Now, you say that the colours I picked "were not even close to colors of the promotional posters". Let's test that out! Here's my
. Here's some TinEye Labs for you:
Season 2. Offered colour: #E3B5A0 . Picked color: #D0987C .
Colour contast between the two: 1.344, meaning extremely close.
Season 1. Offered colour: #BCC5B8 . Picked color: #C3C8C0 .
Colour contast between the two: 1.044, meaning extremely close.
Myth: Busted! I think you'll find you're a bit wrong here.
Given that it was you who has reverted multiple editors for changing the colour, it is you who needs to be warned for
WP:DEW. I recommend that you abide by the
WP:CONSENSUS formed by
Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Television, in that the colours picked for separate seasons should be based on their promotional posters and/or home media releases; logos are only for one-season series. Looks like you need to be warned for
WP:EW too, by the look of the numbers of times you've been reverting here. Nice try, though. Or am I "mansplaining" things to you again? By the looks of your talk page, it's not the first time you've tried to war over colours. -- AlexTW07:46, 25 March 2018 (UTC)reply
Excuse me? I am not the one who was changing colors just because I feel like it! My reverting edits have VALID reasons unlike others. In fact, most of them are
WP:AGF. From the
Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Television#Formatting, "Colors for the seasons are often selected based on the series logo, DVD or promotional artwork, or for other reasons." Just because you said so doesn't mean it is true unless you work for Wikipedia as in a paid employee.
WP:OTHERSTUFF is not a valid reason like you said. You need to be warned for
WP:EW as well. Where is the link to the
WP:CONSENSUS formed by
Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Television that you never even put on here?--
Lbtocth18:58, 25 March 2018 (UTC)reply
Except that you are. You're reverting multiple editors to colours that you prefer, over the
WP:CONSENSUS of the WikiProject Television where it's agreed that separate seasons should be based on promotional posters. Talk pages are publicly accessible, especially when yours was already on my watchlist from our last encounter, so I recommend you delete the stalking accusation before it's considered a personal attack her
WP:PA. Nice try trying to hide the talk page discussion by deleting it too. Series logo is for one-season series. DVD or promotional artwork is for multi-season series. You are the only one needed to be warned of
WP:EW, as you are reverting constantly on this page. If you would like to find the discussions, you are more than welcome to, nobody is stopping you. So, the question is: Do you have a solid reason as to why the colours should remain the same as the logo, other than what you personally like? -- AlexTW02:12, 26 March 2018 (UTC)reply
Again. I still do NOT see the official discussions on
WP:CONSENSUS of the WikiProject Television. Where is the link? There is no proof without the link to the discussions. Right now, you are
WP:PA. I advise to delete your personal attack comments to me. --
Lbtocth02:37, 26 March 2018 (UTC)reply
That's what archives are for. Stop trying to play the victim and copy me. You were. You were changing it to the non-season-specific series logo, which is for one-season series. I was changing it to the season-specific promotional posters, which is for multi-season series. Instead of arguing with someone who actually knows what they're talking about, I recommend you take the advice given to you and educate yourself, instead of stubbornly sticking to the wrong. -- AlexTW02:52, 26 March 2018 (UTC)reply

AlexTheWhovian: It is not an agreement when I simply just give up. There is a difference between giving up and agreement. Putting words in my mouth is not an agreement.--
