Warning: This story contains spoilers about Ginny & Georgia season 2.
For those trying to fill the Gilmore Girls-sized void in their lives, Ginny & Georgia has well and truly stepped up to the plate. The second season of the mother-daughter centric show was one of Netflix's biggest releases of the season, and suffice to say that after binge watching the entirety within a day, we're ready for season three.Well, wait no longer, because Netflix has blessed us with the news that the series will be renewed for a third and fourth season.The show was anticipated to take a while to return, even before the four-month wait for a renewal announcement. Production on season 2 wrapped in April 2022 and had to go through a lengthy post-production process before arriving in January 2023. Even though the season itself was done by October 2022, per Howey, it takes a while for Netflix to translate the series into 180 different languages(!) for its global release.
"That takes about four months," the actor told E! Online last year. "So it’s actually not the show itself. The show is done."
That being said, season 3 could arrive quicker than the two-year gap between seasons 1 and 2. Though the season 2 renewal was announced in April 2021, it didn't begin filming until late November. If the show resumes filming quicker, we may see new episodes around mid to late 2024.
Earlier this year, the genre-bending Netflix hit Ginny & Georgia has returned for its second season, filled with laughs, tears, and another huge cliffhanger. The small-town thriller picked up right where it season 1 ended, as Ginny (Antonia Gentry) was left reeling after learning that her mother Georgia (Brianne Howey) murdered her late stepfather to protect her. Throughout the season—which thankfully didn't keep Ginny away from Wellsbury for long—both the mother and daughter have to reckon with Georgia's past, which continues to haunt Georgia in the lead-up to her wedding with town mayor Paul (Scott Porter).
Just like the first installment, season 2 ends with a lot of unanswered questions, including a final scene that completely blows up the Millers' lives. It's an ending that demands another season, and series creator Sarah Lampert already has plans for what could come next. Read on for everything we know so far about Ginny & Georgia season 3. Huge spoilers for season 2 ahead.
Has 'Ginny & Georgia' been renewed for a third season?
Yes! Netflix finally announced yesterday that it has renewed Ginny & Georgia for both season 3 and season 4 (!). They dropped the long-awaited news during their Upfronts presentation, also revealing that Sarah Glinski will join the series as showrunner for season 3, replacing Debra J. Fisher.
The news comes four months after the January 5 premiere of season 2, which hit no. 1 immediately after its premiere and has stayed in the streamer's Top 10 since. After a month on the platform, Season 2 briefly stood as one of Netflix's most-watched shows, landing on the list of most-popular English-language TV with over 504 million hours viewed. (It has since been knocked off the list by The Night Agent.)
Netflix co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters also name-checked Ginny & Georgia as a "phenomenal US success" in a January Bloomberg interview. (The one where they claimed that they've "never canceled a successful show.") With all this buzz, the question of the renewal moved from "Not if, but when," to "high-key overdue."
When will 'Ginny & Georgia' season 3 come out?
The show was anticipated to take a while to return, even before the four-month wait for a renewal announcement. Production on season 2 wrapped in April 2022 and had to go through a lengthy post-production process before arriving in January 2023.
