Netflixhas renewed Sweet Magnolias for a third season, a huge win considering the numerous cancellations that have taken place at the streaming firm recently.

Sweet Magnolias revolves around three best friends (Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue) born and raised in Serenity, SC, a small southern town where everybody knows everybody and everybody knows everybody’s business.

T3 has reached out to Netflix for comment.

“We’re thrilled to be embarking on our third season for Netflix, and we’re looking forward to returning to Serenity,” said executive producer Dan Paulson in a statement given to Variety.

Season two picks up with the trio discovering who is in the car at Prom Night before long-hidden secrets disrupt jobs, change lives, and shift the balance of power in Serenity. As a result, everyone is affected however the Sweet Magnolias continue to fight for what is right for themselves and the people they love – even when those efforts come with a high price tag.

With so many shows failing to receive a third season (sometimes even a second), clearly, Netflix is happy with Sweet Magnolias' performance. While Netflix keeps its figures to itself, we do know that the series earned 1.556 billion streaming minutes, according to Nielsen’s weekly streaming rankings for February 7th to February 13th, 2022.
