Will there be a Sex/Life season 3? The second season of the hit Netflix series Sex/Life has dropped on the streaming service, and fans are delighted to finally catch up with their old pal Billie Connelly (not that one).
Sex/Life focuses on Billie, a young mother going through something of a mid-life crisis and yearning for her wild younger days. The drama series‘ first season saw Billie’s old flame Brad reenter her life while Sex/Life season 2 dealt with the fallout of her decisions (we’re trying to avoid spoilers).
The Netflix series was wildly popular, though, and fans inevitably want to know if they’ll get a third season. So will there be a Sex/Life season 3? Let’s find out…
Will there be a Sex/Life season 3?
Sadly, it was announced in April 2023 that the show was cancelled, meaning that there will not be a Sex/Life season 3.
The news that the show would not be returning to the streaming service was broken by Variety.
Not much has been said by those involved about the cancellation, but lead actor Sarah Shahi did make passing mention to the difficulties the series encountered while filming season two in a recent podcast interview, saying:
“I’m not going to put it down, but I definitely did not have the support that I did the first season from the people involved in the show,” she says. “It became a much different thing for me, and I’m not afraid to say that. I struggled with the material. I just felt the thing that it had the first season—I mean, I’m never gonna work for Netflix again now after saying all this, but I can’t lie. And it was definitely a challenge.”
If you want to get into a new show to ease the pain, we recommend Yellowstone; it’s been running for five seasons and has plenty of spin-offs, including 6666 and 1883 season 2. Don’t worry if you don’t know any of the actors in the series. We’ve got a Yellowstone cast breakdown for you to read. Don’t forget about all the new movies you can watch this year, too.
