HBO announced the upcoming third season of the critically acclaimed comedy Somebody Somewhere will be the series’ final season. HBO confirmed the news and set an October 27, 2024 premiere date for season three.
“The series follows Sam (Bridget Everett), a true Kansan on the surface, but, beneath it all, struggling to fit the hometown mold. Grappling with loss and acceptance, singing is Sam’s saving grace and leads her on a journey to discover herself and a community of outsiders who don’t fit in but don’t give up, showing that finding your people, and finding your voice, is possible,” reads HBO’s synopsis. “Anywhere. Somewhere. In season three, we see growth against all odds.”
Hannah Bos and Paul Thureen co-created the series and serve as executive producers along with Tyler Romary, Mighty Mint’s Carolyn Strauss, and Duplass Brothers Productions’ Jay Duplass, Mark Duplass, and Mel Eslyn. Series star Bridget Everett writes and executive produces, with Bos, Thureen, Lisa Kon, and Lennon Parham also writing season three. Jay Duplass, Robert Cohen, and Parham direct.
“It has been the greatest dream to bring this world to life and to do it with HBO. Kansas Prairie-sized love and thanks to Amy, the entire HBO family, and to the most talented and caring cast and crew. The heart of Somebody Somewhere is friendship, and we will always hold dear the friendships on the screen and those forged behind the camera,” said Everett, Bos, Thureen, and Strauss in a joint statement.
In addition to Everett, season three stars Jeff Hiller as Joel, Mary Catherine Garrison as Tricia Miller, Tim Bagley as Brad, Murray Hill as Fred Rococo, and Jennifer Mudge as Susan. Mercedes White plays Tiffani and Meighan Gerachis is Irma. Ólafur Darri Ólafsson joins the cast for the final season.
New season three episodes will air on Sundays at 10:30pm ET/PT.
“We are incredibly proud to have collaborated with Bridget, Hannah and Paul on this remarkable exploration of the beauty of everyday life,” said Amy Gravitt, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, Head of HBO & Max Comedy Series. “Though it’s hard to say goodbye to these characters we hold dear, we’re grateful for this journey and the legacy Somebody Somewhere leaves behind.”
