The third season of the American comedy-drama television series Ginny & Georgia was released on Netflix on June 5, 2025, and consisted of 10 episodes. The third season had been developed by Madica Productions, Critical Content, Dynamic Television, and Blue Ice Pictures in collaboration with executive producers Sarah Lampert, Sarah Glinski, Jeff Tahler, Jenny Daly, Holly Hines, Daniel March, Lance Samuels, Daniel Iron, and Armand Leo.
"Everything Just Peachy" is used in the season's tagline for promotional media to highlight the contrast between the family's self-assurance and their internal confusion as the plot develops. The season centres on the ongoing plot of Georgia and Ginny Miller, a mother and daughter team, as well as the events that follow Georgia's suspenseful arrest for Tom Fuller's murder at the conclusion of Season 2.[1][2][3]
The primary cast, including Brianne Howey, Antonia Gentry, Diesel La Torraca, Felix Mallard, and Sara Waisglass, along with the supporting characters and a few newcomers as well.
Filming for the season took place in April 2024 in Toronto, Canada, with the prospective season title of Tulips & Tuxes. The plot follows the aftermath of the arrest of Georgia and Ginny growing up, as well as the effects of Ginny's independence on the Miller family. The series further develops the characters of Austin, Abby, Maxine, and Marcus.
Reviews were generally positive from viewers and critics, who commended the acting, especially in how Brianne Howey conveyed the character's moral complexity in the show's exploration of themes such as trauma, identity, and women's reproductive rights. Some reviews, though, noted that the show's second half had some pacing issues and relied on courtroom melodrama.[4] The final episode ends on a very emotionally charged note, setting the tone for season four, which has been confirmed.

Production
Development and casting
The production of the third season of Ginny & Georgia started in Toronto, Canada, after the series was renewed by Netflix. The series, which was created by Sarah Lampert, continues to feature the main characters portrayed by Brianne Howey and Antonia Gentry, playing the roles of Georgia Miller and Ginny. Other characters' members include Felix Mallard as Marcus Baker, Sara Waisglass as Maxine Baker, Diesel La Torraca as Austin Miller, Jennifer Robertson as Ellen Baker, Scott Porter as Mayor Paul Randolph, Raymond Ablack as Joe, Katie Douglas as Abby Littman, Chelsea Clark as Norah, Sabrina Grdevich as Cynthia Fuller, [5] and Nathan Mitchell as Zion Miller, who also returned.[2][6] This continuity enabled the show to deepen existing relationships and expand character arcs, especially for the MANG group and Ginny's family dynamics.[7][8]
New recurring cast members were added to the cast of Season 3 to aid the story. Ty Doran played the role of Wolfe, a member of the school's poetry class and a possible love interest for Ginny, portrayed as a intellectual and supportive person.[9][10] Noah Lamanna played the role of Tris, a skater and tutor, and a person who relates to Abby as she struggles with body issues and loneliness.[11][12]
In discussing the direction of the new season, Lampert said that the story will be a continuation of the second season's season finale, where Georgia Miller gets arrested on suspicion of murder on her wedding day.[2]
For the season, Sarah Glinski, known for Degrassi: The Next Generation, took over as a showrunner and executive producer replacing Debra J. Fisher.[13][14][15] Along with Jeff Tahler for Madica Productions, Jenny Daly for Critical Content, Holly Hines and Daniel March for Dynamic Television, and Lance Samuels, Daniel Iron, and Armand Leo for Blue Ice Pictures. Elena Blekhter acts as a co-executive producer.[2]
Writing
To create the season's storylines, the writers chose to expand the scope of the writing to incorporate Austin Miller as a central part of the family's narrative. In the earlier seasons, the writing centered on Ginny & Georgia, but the season delves into the emotional and psychological effects of the family's situation on Austin, who was initially a secondary character. In this writing, the audience is shown the effects of neglect and family conflicts on a child's perspective. According to Diesel La Torraca, the writing of the third season brought more intense situations that were emotionally challenging for the character. In this season, Austin is shown dealing with the consequences of witnessing violent acts from his parents. In one part of the writing, Austin is shown as Ginny's accomplice in the plan to frame their father, Gil, for the crime of harming Georgia.[16][17]
A Teen Vogue feature noted the team's effort to portray the mother-daughter dynamic with emotional honesty while preserving the series' fast-paced, sharp dialogue.[18]
Filming
Principal photography took place in Cobourg and Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The primary scenes in Cobourg were outdoor scenes, and they provided the small-town look, civic scenes, and lakeside scenes that portrayed the fictional town of Wellsbury, Massachusetts. The scenes in Toronto were interior scenes, residential scenes, and some establishing scenes. The crew had to use different filming techniques to complete the scenes in an efficient way. They closed streets and parks in Cobourg to film scenes, and they had background people in the scenes to portray civic events and scenes in public places. The scenes in Cobourg included Victoria Hall, where they portrayed the Wellsbury Town Hall, King Street West scenes, such as the Blue Farm Café, and Victoria Park, where they portrayed scenes in civic events. The scenes in Toronto included Baby Point Crescent, where they portrayed the Miller family home, Etienne Brulé Park, where they portrayed scenes in Wellsbury High School, and the Nelson A. Boylen Collegiate Institute, where they portrayed scenes in Wellsbury High School.[19][20][21]
They shot in TriBro Studios, where they had multiple sound stages and office space. They built custom sets in the studio, to portray scenes in homes, offices, and schools.[22] Some scenes were shot in real locations, such as Audrey's In Town Fashion, located in Cobourg, and the EZ Lube Automobile Service, located in Scarborough. The crew had 120 crew members, 45 background people, and 40 production vehicles.[20][21][19]
Production faced initial delays due to the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, impacting industry schedules. However, with scripts completed before the strikes began, filming resumed on schedule after negotiations concluded in late 2023. The delay allowed extra time to prepare sets, secure permits, and ensure visual continuity, especially for complex courtroom and domestic scenes.[23][24]
Reception
Viewership
The season rose to the top of Netflix's global rankings. In its first four days, it recorded approximately 17.6 million Complete Viewing Equivalents (CVEs), a Netflix metric for full-season viewings debuting at number one on the English-language TV chart and exceeding the previous third-season launch record set by Outer Banks.[25][26] According to Netflix’s weekly Top 10 data for June 2–8, 2025, the season maintained 17.6 million CVEs, holding its top spot. By the week ending June 16, it added 8.1 million views, with Season 1 and Season 2 also placing at #8 and #2, respectively.[27][28] Across all seasons, the series totaled over 248 million viewing hours in a single week during June 2025.[29]
Critical response
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 75% of 16 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 3.0/10. The website's consensus reads: "Focused by a clearer throughline that doesn't skimp on melodrama, Ginny & Georgia's third season is still uneven but pulls off its most successful mix of froth and seriousness yet."[30] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 55 out of 100, based on 6 critic reviews, indicating "mixed or average" responses.[31]
