Somebody Somewhere is renewed for season three at Max to kick off Pride Month

HBO is heading back to Kansas for a third season of Somebody Somewhere starring Bridget Everett, 51, the streamer announced on June 2.

Created by Hannah Bos and Paul Thureen, the show follows Everett’s Sam who goes back to her hometown of Manhattan, Kansas to care for her dying sister Holly and finds herself trapped.

She becomes unstuck when her love of singing connects her to a strange community of performers who meet at a church for a weekly burlesque-style show featuring song, dance and passages read from the stolen diary of a member’s sister she call ‘choral practice’.

“Nothing makes us smile like this show, which always reminds us that life is made up of the little moments, that family can be chosen, and that dreams have no deadlines,” Amy Gravitt, HBO’s executive vice president – where recently the series finale of Succession brought in high ratings — and Max comedy programming, said in a press release.

Meanwhile, Everett confirmed the news on Instagram, writing, “Ummm HOLY SH*T WE ARE SO EXCITED! can not believe it.’

The show also stars Jeff Hiller, Mary Catherine Garrison, Murray Hill, Jane Brody, Mercedes White, Kailey Albus, Meighan Gerachis, Tim Bagley, Jennifer Mudge, and Barbara Robertson.

The show is a semi-autobiographical look at Everett’s life if she had ever stayed in or returned to her native Kansas.

The show is about giving yourself some grace no matter how much of a mess you are at any given time.

Everett sat down with The everyday beast recently to talk about season two and the genesis of her ready-made Big Juicy C*nt number.

“I used to live with Mary Catherine Garrison, who plays [Sam’s sister] Tricia. I remember one time we were sitting together – she would probably kill me for saying this to a reporter – but we were sitting in our living room with our friend Julie and Mary Catherine said, “Everybody always tells me I’m the tightest p*ssie.”

And Julie was like, “Me too!” Then they said, “Bridget?” I was like, “Nobody ever said that to me.” So singing the Big and Juicy C*nt song with Mary Catherine in the car was another little Easter bunny, “which references a moment from her real life.

She also shared why the show makes its fans so emotional, saying, “I don’t know. I think there’s a softness to it. It’s a slower pace of a show. What appealed to us was doing something with dialogue that didn’t seem scripted.

“So you feel like you’re sitting in the room with someone and watching them. In a way, I feel like it makes it easier for people to take care of the characters. With the character of Sam, I feel like her pain is always right under the fingernail,” she said.

“It’s there, and you can kind of feel it, even in the good times.” But she is healing and getting better. It’s nice to be supportive for someone who is daring themselves,” she added.

And fans need not fear that the show will change a lot.

Everett executive produces the show. She told Rolling Stone in April that she intended to keep the show as real and raw as the first two seasons.

“If we get season three,” she said at the time, “we’re going to have a full town hall about hot flashes and dry tw*ts.”

The full two seasons of Somebody Somewhere are currently streaming on Max.
