Ginny & Georgia Trailer: Will Season 3 Murder Trial Give Us The Georgia/Joe Moment We've Been Waiting For?
The threat of prison time has Ginny & Georgia on edge in a newly released trailer for Season 3 of the Netflix dramedy — but if we're being honest, we're more hung up on another concern: Will Georgia's murder trial finally, at long last, bring her and cafe owner Joe together?
Yes, house arrest-bound Georgia and her new hubby Paul are still together — "No more secrets," he tells her — but as Georgia faces the possibility of life without parole and suffers a panic attack, it's Joe who provides some comforting words.
"You can't give up," he says as Georgia ponders just how much worse her life can get.
Meanwhile, Ginny is struggling with whether she should defend her mom's actions. "I'm trying so hard to protect her, but I don't even know if it's the right thing to do," she confesses to Marcus.
Season 3 premieres with all 10 episodes Thursday, June 5 — nearly two-and-a-half years after its Season 2 finale.
As previously reported, Netflix picked up the series for Seasons 3 and 4 in May 2023, with Sarah Glinski (Degrassi: Next Class) replacing Debra J. Fisher as showrunner. New recurring cast members for the third season include Ty Doran (Manifest) as Wolfe, a laidback guy in Ginny's poetry class who doesn't particularly like poetry, and Noah Lamanna (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Beacon 23) as Tris, a super smart skateboarder who is friends with Marcus and Silver, and who peer tutors.
When last we checked in with Ginny & Georgia in the Season 2 ender (which dropped in January 2023), Georgia had opened up to Paul about her abusive ex Gil, her shady deeds and more of her troubled past — but she left out the truth about how she killed her two ex-husbands. Despite everything she'd told him, Paul still wanted to marry Georgia, because she's already ruined him, he said. The couple got hitched in a beautiful ceremony, but their first dance was interrupted by the police. The authorities arrested Georgia for the murder of Cynthia's dying husband Tom, leaving Paul, Georgia, Austin (who'd witnessed his mom suffocating Tom with a pillow) and the rest of the guests to look on in shock as she was taken away in handcuffs.
Elsewhere in the finale, Ginny showed up as a friend for her ex Marcus, who was struggling with depression, while Georgia and Joe (who had an affair with Cynthia) also came to a place of friendship in their relationship while denying their feelings for each other.
"What happens in Episodes 8, 9 and 10 between Joe, Cynthia and Georgia plays a huge role in Season 3," creator/executive producer Sarah Lampert teased in a post mortem interview, adding that it's not necessarily romantic. "Plot-wise, we are laying seeds that you won't realize were laid until we get a Season 3, and if we're able to tell the story we want to tell, it will all make sense. And everything will come back around in a way that you were not expecting."
