‘In Season 3, we see growth against all odds.’
The cast includes Bridget Everett as Sam, Jeff Hiller as Joel, Mary Catherine Garrison as Tricia Miller, Danny McCarthy as Rick, Mike Hagert as Ed Miller, and Murray Hill as Fred Rococo.

Despite the praise and popularity of the show, in August last year it was confirmed that it would not return for another season.
Fans were left heartbroken when it was confirmed that the network had abruptly cancelled the show.
Creators Hannah Boss and Paul Thureen, alongside Everett and executive producer Carolyn Strauss said in a statement: ‘It has been the greatest dream to bring this world to life…. Kansas Prairie-sized love and thanks to Amy [Gravitt], the entire HBO family, and to the most talented and caring cast and crew.
‘The heart of Somebody Somewhere is friendship, and we will always hold dear the friendships on the screen and those forged behind the camera.’
Speaking abut the show coming to an end in December last year, protagonist Bridget told told Vulture: ‘We’re all going to be in Kansas for a finale watch party. I was like, Oh my God, am I just going to be crying all weekend again?
‘Right now, I feel like I’m at my own funeral. I am reading all these nice things about the show. Tim and I talk a little bit.
‘We both feel like we’re the most desperately sad about it.
‘The other night, I watched episode 305 three times in a row or something like that.
‘I don’t want it to be over. I am going to miss everybody so much and what we’ve built together.
‘But I try not to bore anybody with how I’m feeling.
‘As incredible as it’s been, as fulfilling and dreamlike as it’s all been, it’s equally as difficult to take the last breath.’
