When will Sweet Magnolias Season 3 Premiere?
Season 1 premiered on Netflix in May 2020, while the second season debuted on the streamer almost two years later. Fortunately, this is not going to be the case for the third season. Sweet Magnolias Season 3 returns on Netflix on July 20, 2023.
How many episodes will be there?
Like the last two seasons, the third season is going to have 10-hour-long episodes. All episodes will be dropped on the premiere date i.e. July 20, 2023.
What will Sweet Magnolias Season 3 be about?
Sweet Magnolias Season 3 will see the return of the beloved trio of friends—Maddie (JoAnna Garcia Swisher), Dana Sue (Brooke Elliott), and Helen (Heather Headley). The characters have captured audiences’ hearts with their unique personalities and their unwavering support for each other. As they face new obstacles and embark on new adventures, fans can look forward to witnessing their bonds strengthen further, reminding us of the power of true friendship.
Fans of Sweet Magnolias are anticipating more answers in season 3 of the show after season 2 ended on a cliffhanger and left them with many unanswered questions. By the end of season 2, Dana Sue and Ronnie had reconciled, but there’s a chance that Kathy might have interfered with their recent reconciliation. Additionally, we learned that Miss Frances, the real-life homeowner who served as the inspiration for The Corner Spa, passed away in the season 2 finale.
As mentioned by actress Joanna Garcia Swisher in an interview with ET, the next season will likely take us back to serenity and right where season 2 ended. She said that it’ll probably start “close to where we left off, ’cause I don’t think you can come back months later and say, ‘Whatever happened with Helen?’ and ‘Is Justin in jail?’ Why not go big or go home?”
The upcoming season will follow Maddie as she works through her problems with Justin Bruenig’s character Cal. It will continue to explore these themes, highlighting the strength of the characters as they overcome adversity and work towards achieving their dreams.
Below is the official plot synopsis for Sweet Magnolias Season 3:
Following the brawl at Sullivan’s, Maddie wrestles with the best way to help Cal and works to clear her own emotional path. Helen faces difficult decisions about the men in her life. And Dana Sue searches for a way to use Miss Frances’ check to help the community, without upending her family. The identity of the tire slasher sends shockwaves through Serenity, the recall causes unexpected consequences, and there are romantic surprises in every generation. Throughout the season, the ladies tackle these problems — and all the complications they cause — with their trademark warmth, humor, and devotion to each other and those they love. And margaritas.
