, the moment feels particularly apropos for a show about girls who aren't afraid of what anyone thinks of what they've got to say .creator Lisa McGee about the show's third-season return, what viewers can expect to see from the gang and what it's like to apply a specifically young and female lens to a global conflict that's often viewed through a male perspective. Read the full interview below.
I know the show has been out for a while in the U.K., but how are you feeling about the U.S. release today? I'm really excited because obviously, as you know, it comes out in the U.K. first, and we've had a lot of people from our international fan base asking us when Netflix is gonna get it. And it's just nice to finally say, “Oh, it's tomorrow.” I'm excited to see what they think of it as well.It's been very intense. I'm the only writer on the show, so it's kind of been my life for the last five years, although we had a gap because of COVID.
I think it's probably the most ambitious season we've done. We really wanted to kind of push the boundaries of what we could achieve, so the scale of it is bigger. The director and I wanted to pay homage to a few different genres, and there's a flashback episode where we go back to 1977, when the moms were teenagers. There's a thriller/police-chase episode, you know, it's basically everything we wanted to do.
I watched Season 3 episode 1 and I am laughing so hard I scared the dogs
LisaMMcGee Binged the entire season yesterday. Really enjoyed it & look forward to revisiting the entire series soon.
Stick to 90s nostalgia
