What Can We Expect in Season 3?

Season 2 ended with a dramatic cliffhanger, leaving fans eager for more. The show’s creators have been tight-lipped about the plot details for season 3, but we can expect to see more of the same heartwarming, family-oriented drama that has made the show so popular.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, executive producer and showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson said, “We love these characters and this town, and we’re excited to tell more stories about them. We’ll explore some new themes and continue to delve into the complexities of the relationships between our characters.”

Season 2 ended with a lot of unanswered questions and unresolved storylines. Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue were mourning the loss of Miss Frances, while also dealing with the return of someone from their past. Additionally, viewers saw an unexpected event leading to Cal being arrested and Helen being proposed to by Ryan.

Anderson also revealed that the person who returned has come back to settle some scores and that we could potentially see the return of other “troublemakers” in the future. Anderson also said that the three-way dance between Dana Sue and her love interests will likely continue to be complicated.
